Rather disappointed. While it has some really good music and the concept is enjoyable the lack of animation in areas is what let it down. I really hope we can get the manga volumes officially at some point so I can just read the series officially. Also Netflix did a really poor job on the subtitles (so many of the location/ character name signs were untranslated when a character on screen was speaking).
[Netflix] It uses the background of the Notre-Dame fire to build a drama about crossed lives that has little consistency. Despite a remarkable cast of leading names in French cinema, it fails to make any of the parallel stories interesting, and some of them are not developed. Unbalanced and monotonous, only the fiction around the attempts to control the fire is attractive, but leaving aside the political controversies.
Silicon Valley meets The Office (US)... halfway. Halfway but still pretty good and funny :grin:
I don’t consider myself to be a gamer and I don’t think the target audience is only gamers. It’s more about (game) development and the human interactions in such an office :joystick::boom::man::desktop_computer:
Ps: only watched 3 episodes so far...
Absolutely amazing crime drama I only wish it had more episodes I loved every minute of it. Stellar acting from Taron Egerton I can't wait to see him in other stuff he's going to get busy from now. I'm going to go ahead and say it: Paul Walter Hauser gives the best acting performance of the year! Also that intro music plays in my head on repeat so good!

It took me two time to get through the first episode, due to falling asleep. Everything is excruciatingly slow...
the camera pans, the dialog, character walking, even the coke whore!
It's what I'd expect from a movie made by a postal service, or DMV employee.

I tried. I really tried. But about 10 minutes into the second episode, and I was just getting peeved. I couldn't take another hour and a half of it!
Maybe if someone was doing speed ball, it might work... cocaine to stay awake, and heroin to keep from slitting your own throat!
