Anyone hoping for the next Gomorrah will be disappointed, especially at the start of this Italian gang drama set in Milan. The first 2-3 episodes are average at best, with a confusing mix of characters, none of whom I would describe as compelling.
However I think it massively improves as you get to know the characters. The production values are good, there are plenty of interesting camera things going on (that's the technical term) and the soundtrack is excellent. The leader of the Salvadoran gang gradually becomes more involved and is, in my opinion, the best character.
Yes, the 3 young friends can be annoying and just how many sex scenes do we need? But you kind of root for them.
I would say well worth a watch. It's not Gomorrah, but what is?
