Review of Capitani

Capitani (2019–2022)
Quite good by European standards
22 February 2021
The series is quite good by European standards. And it's reasonable polished, as much as European script writers can. It's interesting how it starts as each episode is one day. But by the 5th episode they lose track and can't keep up.

Also it is captivating, yet who is telling this story? Some times it's the foreign detective. But every ten minutes the writers lose track and have to inject something from a god-view perspective. Which is rather idiotic as it would have been easier to just tell the story instead of all meandering if they have the god-view of what happened.

Finally, I am biased as I was quite curious on the strange Luxembourg language and habits. Yet the substrate of the story is typical European gulag: total submission to the State and its representatives. Yes, the State representatives make mistakes and have their excesses, but that is only because they are merely human and lack the perfection of the Governmental Gods. And, the worst part how the taxpayers are petty vulgarians who needs an outside messiah to bring them to the light.
