Los leones de Sicilia

Loving this series, but the forced English voiceover is just horrible. I enjoy watching international series in their original audio and hate that I have no choice to change it. And the music is awful too, it just doesn't match up with the era. Hated that about Peaky Blinders as well. These issues are why I can only give it 8 stars. That being said, the story and actors are great! Would've given it an easy 10 if not for my previous complaints. Reading other reviews makes me feel better that I'm not alone and exaggerating.

I also don't appreciate being forced to write a 600 review on here, so it will be my last. Happy New Year to all!

This is a great series. The English is horrible. But, you can change it to Italian, French etc. Likewise the subtitles. This is the saga of a family that has a lot of ups and downs. At times it's frustrating to watch. But a great series.

All the reviews that talk about the language thing have not tried to change the language. There are options. I like the series and do not understand how the complainers never thought to look. You don't like something and never look to see if you can change it? Seriously?

I hope that they choose to do more with it. I would love to see another part of this saga.

There is now an option, watch in Italian! Look at the top of the screen. Subtitles on, audio Italian.

Original post follows, but no longer holds true. I will watch the series then amend it.

Had been looking forward to this but sadly dubbed in English, and refuse to watch anything not using the original language. The timbre, temper of foreign film and television is its original language. Language is our most precious and unique way of expression. It is why imperial powers throughout centuries have forbidden people to speak in their own languages, stripping places and their native peoples of identity. Until Disney and Hulu take their heads out of their accounting books and allow users to listen to what appears to be an exciting epic series .

If you would like to watch it in Italian with English subtitles you have to click to watch on the I Lioni di Sicilia, if you click on the The Lions of Sicily then it will be dubbed in English and it pretty awful to hear. I speak Italian so Im glad to see it in the original language.

I am writing this because some of the reviewers here have mentioned how horrible the dubbed version is, and it seems enough of you don't know how to get it in the spoken language without dubbing, which can be viewed of course with the english subtitles. I hope to have helped some of you.

Enjoy it in Sicilian, I love hearing it.

As a Sicilian I am very happy that for once they try to do a series that does not talk about the mafia and the bad things that has this territory. Here instead they try to give prestige to the most illustrious family of Sicily that has done so much good for Sicily and Sicilians by giving work to many families. I liked the actors, even if they are not all Sicilians have learned Sicilian well and have made the product very credible. I liked the shooting and I recognized almost all the places, on the other hand the sicily is beautiful and the shooting at the port were made in cefalù a fantastic village near palermo. I hope so much that they will make the second season that will talk about the Targa Florio the oldest motorist race in the world, and that passes by my village.
