One of my all time favorites.

I'll tell you why so serious

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This series should be watched by all people of Latin America. It shows the fight of the decent, common citizens against the cancer of structural corruption that rots all our governments and societies. The acting is excellent and the story is gripping. Cannot wait for season 2!

Spetacular acting and directing(Padilha from Robocop, Narcos and Elite Squad). Tell about the actual developtmen of crime scene in Brazil, House of cards is a little case in comparation with the corruption of government of Brazilian people.

The Mechanism is one of the best series of the moment. I feel very happy to say this, I'm Brazilian, having a Brazilian series at the top is an orgasm of happiness. José Padilha, creator of this series and also of other films and series that have made success, like Narcos and Tropa de Elite, is the great name of the series. All plans sequenced, all dialogues were made by him, that brilliant mind that I'm happy to speak: MADE IN BRAZIL !!!. Despite having suffered some criticism from some people, who say that it is not credible with what really happened; these people have to understand one thing: it is a fiction based on a book that is based on real facts. Confused? But even so, most enjoyed the series with due will.

It is a decent show with a good and well worked theme. Has its flaws on direction, dialogues and some major scenes but nothing too bad. The deal with the 10/10 and 1/10 reviews are majority 'political war', with not much sense since the series don't take a political sides as corrupted (not everyone can see it, unfortunately).Don't watch it thinking you're going to see the next 'The Wire', but definitely worth watching if you wants to know (the romanticized) corruption of Brazil.
