Gomorra is a fantastic, really unique and quite deep show, it really puts a new perspective on criminal life. Italy should be proud that it's capable of producing such quality art. I think that shows like this are a better way for fighting criminality, more specifically the way it demolishes the "cool criminal" stereotype that is present in other shows. The characters in Gomorra are beyond broken and depraved, the life of these people is not cool and desirable in any way. And this is close to reality. Why would anyone want to be a criminal after watching this?
Diversity themes are just the same deconstructionist crap pushed in all western media. The diversity plots were clearly shoe ins as they really had nothing to do with the main story, same shit in vikings
I have the same birthday as you, also the second child and also do not good at a particular things. You perfectly capture this feeling cinematography. Keep up the work!❤
When I first started watching this show, they always had an awkward pause in between their conversations, after a couple of episodes in I noticed I was paying more attention to their facial expressions and body languages. Out of all the crime dramas I've watched that was something I've never seen in. I think the show's focus on the subtle messages is one of its defining qualities.
Salvatore Esposito has the best facial expressions & body language I have ever seen. He's constantly transforming throughout the series. He stole the show.
In Germany every year only the ndrangheta has a turnover and money laundering of 100 billion euros, then there is the Turkish leader in heroin, Russians etc, but no law or arrests, now after 40 years of presence of the ndrangheta, in Italy the law is very harsh in fact the majority, not the bosses, live in London, London even more financial corruption, the largest tax haven for money laundering (all legal in England), the biggest disgust: the Chelsea football club to Abramovich, in 1991 , mafia and kgb disappeared from Russia, oligarchy is a less scary name than MAFIA...
Why didn't you mention the toto Riina mini series based on real events and when you speak of mafia know that commorah is not mafia they don't have the same structure and hierarchy and as long or ndrangheta far as the homosexuality definite no no amongst Sicilian and Calabrese even in NY Philly in etc I mean I've heard that commorah members don't take the oath of omerta nor are they ever made except for high ranking members boss types in the past who answered to bosses in Palermo and corleone "La Cosa Nostra" (this lightly mentioned in gommorah in 4th season when a character is talking about why Don pietrodidnt want any thing to do with lady immas extended family laventes of fear the Sicilian would take controll of Don pietro territory in naples) especially when Sicilians controlled the heroin trade routes to the US another example of this is exemplified in gommorah when genny drops a dime as we say in America thus giving tips to the federal italian government in order to get his father law arrested you do that with lcn you'll end up in landfill or crammed in a acid barrel for such dishonorable acts
@Life Hoes On I love the Sopranos,but all 3 are unrealistic. I crime boss seeing a shrink,a lawyer con man,and a high school chemistry teacher drug king pin. This is something else. But you rated them well,i love the Sopranos,my favorite. But realism,Gommora #1.
Ciro saw what happens to loyal soldiers who have given 20 or 30 years and then die to be forgotten the next day by the bosses. There was no opportunity for him to be a boss himself one day as he didn't have the name, and no-one was loyal to him, so he made that opportunity but what a cost. Truly brilliant story arc from series 1 to 5.
if you think about it, ciro's arc is probably the best that a soldier (who isn't from an already established family) could hope for. and that's pretty bleak
Gomorrah is special a no go area that we get invited into with the anti heroes, The Sopranos was a different level of production and entertainment, they were a family business and Fauda is something that puts you in the edge of guys seat in your lounge and very frightening and accurate to what retribution means in the mysterious Middle East , the best tv series that has ever been put in our screens. All three are up there, they are real, twisted and gritty. They are all very very dark but yet riveting.
HBO and The Sopranos changed TV forever. Tony Soprano came onto our screens and the idea of the good guy always wins was gone and the anti hero was born. This led the way for shows like Breaking Bad and Gomorra. I was in a small village in Italy a few years ago, at a sandwich shop, and they had a sandwich named the Tony Soprano. Being from NJ, it really hit how much of an impact that show had around the world.
There have been a lot of antiheros before that like Scarface.. I think Sopranos was different as it showed a mobster that had a family, kids and lived a "normal" life when he was at home.
Don't pretend the increasing privatization of TV and media is a progress for Humanity though. It's the exact opposite. The "Freedom", and the "risks" in narratives are all a matter of time to take place. Free market bullshit barely even accelerates them.
@Thus Spoke Films cmon, this show is meant to he heard in Napulitan, it takes away from it any other way. Imagine not hearing Marlon Brando's voice while watching The Godfather, it's just ruined any other way.
Reading isn't that difficult, and there is more to communication than the content of the words spoken. They tone and inflection of the original is typically the best representation of what the director's vision. You're probably losing a decent amount of that when someone else tries to mimic that in another language.
This was kind of interesting, except all through the video I was thinking "Hasn't this been the case for at least a decade?" And there didn't seem anything about San Matteo in this.
What u talking about?? Out tv in Italy as always been free, we had sex a nudity in all the commedia italiana and we all have bad language. We didn't need gomorra we had show similar before . This is only a new look of what we already had
excellent series great description of how its changed things Gomorrah gets better the second and third time you watch it and realise what you missed the first few times. Australian tv crime pushes interesting boundaries. look at chopper the original movie Animal Kingdom is Australian and Underbelly . also Blue murder, phoenix
Great TV. Gommorah 123 was brilliant. I felt 4 was sluggish untill end still a gr8 show. Season 5 with CIru returning will be explosive. Also CIru spinoff movie Immortal was pretty decent from a Gommorah fan perspective. Badlands Midlands since 2016.2021.aye Ciru. Aye Gennaro. Naples
