Featured reviewer says he didn't know who was who, the bad guys, the good guys, he was confused, he couldn't follow the action, it was too fast., and not funny. First off, maybe that reviewer has trouble telling Italian faces apart, I dunno. Secondly, it's not a comedy. There are comic aspects, but they are are inherent in the subject matter...Italian Mafia and Italian law and justice and Italian society at large. The humor is baked in, it's sarcasm regarding the whole lurid mess that it treats here. He complains about the slapstick. It's slapstick only in the sense that feeding the guy into the chipper at the end of Fargo was slapstick. It was humor like it was funny that Farmer is in bed with her screen husband at the end, and she's a cute Midwestern Momma again after shooting the guy in the field. Fargo was funny. This serial is definitely funny, like when the parents open the giant doll box and its full of cash. It's a shame I have to waste my time pointing out how clueless the "featured review" was. The director, the writers, they play all the right notes that makes a great operatic serial. They know how to peg your attention, unlike some Amazon stuff I've watched where they just throw in tired old gimmicks, and dialog that was tiresome a hundred years ago and almost at random thinking that's good enough. But this...this really is good enough. Great stuff, love it, you will too. The only complaint I have is that there's no hint as to when or if we'll see a season 2. That is disappointment, I'm trying not to seek revenge.
