Season 1 Review: The show is primed for attentive viewing even more than binge-viewing, but you’ll want to follow its eight hour-long episodes to the end either way. I recommend doing so in doses, even though the show is held together by so many great twists that you might find yourself just watching one episode after the next. Read full review

Season 1 Review: ZeroZeroZero is a sprawling, hardly original drug drama enlivened by exciting action, bravura filmmaking and tangible atmosphere. And Andrea Riseborough shines as a queen bee in waiting. Read full review

Season 1 Review: I don't think ZeroZeroZero has the same emotional depth as Narcos, but from a visual standpoint, I'll give it the edge. As far as the performances go, DeHaan, Riseborough and Byrne are all solid, and though they're the only recognizable actors in the cast, that actually works in the show’s favor. .... If this show does prove to be a one-season wonder, its final minute is stunning. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The way Emma fondly mocked her brother promised that this will be the relationship of the series. It's also a relief that it is shot beautifully, in Calabria, Monterrey and New Orleans; places we won't be visiting for a while. The cast is terrific, with Adriano Chiaramida as an elderly don and Giuseppe De Domenico as his strutty grandson. Read full review

Season 1 Review: It’s a credit to the writing and performances that ZeroZeroZero doesn't collapse under its zeal for bombast. Instead, this is a dark, exuberant cocaine opera, bleak escapism for long February nights. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Genre familiarity may make ZeroZeroZero less fresh, but it remains quite watchable, if you can ignore its vaguely nihilistic streak, thanks to a good cast, confident direction and cinematography that's really quite stunning at times. Read full review

Season 1 Review: ZeroZeroZero is surprisingly engaging given just how many locales and characters the viewer needs to keep track of. Read full review

I really really like it. The editing, photography, acting, were all perfect. The way the story is told, from diferente points of view of the different characters, adds a really original and interesting point of the show. It’s not the usual narcos tv show, or drug show. Wow.

This show is kick ass. A blend of Narcos and the movie Sicario. I mean very much worth watching.

It may go a bit overboard on what can be considered plausible, but at least it doesn't cheat itself and stays completely focused on plot, tone and atmosphere.

And by that I mean how oppressive and bleak it is in its portrayal of greed and drug trafficking. It offers nothing new in terms of addressing these issues, but I can't deny the appeal and unfortunate entertainment of such a story.
In one way or another, it offers some perspectives that might seem to glorify these characters, such as the Mexican military man who ends up becoming a cartel leader, but the series itself makes for an excellent thriller.

It demands time and patience, but trust me, it's worth it.… Expand

This is straight down the middle for this genre. However, there are enough plot twists to keep you interested and the the pacing is on target

Excellent first two/three episodes where has-been Gabriel Byrne and Tcheky Karyo went for a pay-check. Good on them for stealing money from Bezos! Cinematography, writing, and pacing are up there with the best series.

Then it goes downhill too fast unfortunately, with an African side story where ludicrous plot twists really demand a lot in terms of suspension of disbelief. Almost as nonsensical is the Italian constant revolving doors of alliances as if in a 19th vaudeville. I disagree with the critics on the American side being the most compelling. The acting is over-the-top and grating. The Italian side is the most beautifully photographed and the Mexican, the most realistic.… Expand

J'ignore si son drôle de titre est prédestiné mais cette (énième) série sur la mafia et le trafic de came ne parvient jamais à convaincre... et pourtant les moyens sont bien présents, la réalisation est toujours propre et souvent élégante, la musique et ses ambiances électros sontJ'ignore si son drôle de titre est prédestiné mais cette (énième) série sur la mafia et le trafic de came ne parvient jamais à convaincre... et pourtant les moyens sont bien présents, la réalisation est toujours propre et souvent élégante, la musique et ses ambiances électros sont agréables...

Alors, rien que pour ça, ça nous fera au moins trois, même si trois fois zéro, ça fait toujours zéro à ce qu'il paraît. Et puis les bonnes intentions demeurent, même si elles s'avèrent désespérément maladroites d'épisode en épisode... et pourtant on en a que huit... d'épîsodes !

Mais par où commencer ? peut-être par cette guimauve sur nos "pauvres" intermédiaires, ceux qui transportent la coke dans les containers, histoire (?) de les humaniser sans doute ? sauf que c'est ici très chiant et que ça sonne faux, archi-faux... et qu'en plus, la guimauve est de trop mauvaise qualité... les comédiens n'en mènent pas large de toute façon et sur-jouent plus qu'à leur tour !

Mais le scénario lui-même est sujet à moult incohérences dans cette petite guerre de succession impromptue en Italie comme au Mexique avec nos transporteurs au milieu... En outre, la série manque d'énergie et d'envergure malgré un beau lot d'atrocités commises par ces "nouveaux" sicarios qui prennent les commandes et font parler surtout les flingues : tout ça reste étrangement plat...

Il manque donc quelque chose ou plutôt plusieurs choses vitales dans une série : un scénario digne de ce nom et de vrais personnages ! pas des coquilles vides ou de vagues caricatures si souvent ridicules...… Expand
