Review of Bargain

Bargain (2022–2023)
10/10
Dark, visually stunning masterpiece of TV
27 October 2023
This is a virtuoso execution of a dark, twisted story. The first episode grabs you with its one take, seemless camera work; But it gets even better after its cliffhanger ending (and there will be more of those!).

It is available in a dubbed version (which is very well executed), that allows one to follow the story and plot. Both happen at breakneck speed, which makes each episode fly by (there are 6 episodes). Performances are just fantastic, with both leads and secondary characters given the opportunity to shine. While quite dark, and even bleak, it has moments of humor that genuinely release the accumulated tension. One particular character/situation gets more and more absurd, and funnier each time.

Really hoping there is a second season, but this is a heck of a series if it's just a stand alone !
