This series could have been so good but like just about everything I watch now has porn like sex? Why? Can writers not write anymore without nudity and pure sex , who wants to watch that. I don't know straight or homosexual sexual on all tv shows it Nauseating. I would just like to watch a good movie or show series without that in it why not the morning after looking at things people do have imagination still please give us a chance to use them. The storyline of this is very good the homosexual Sex I could very much do without.

Lots of style, little substance. They became so focused on camera angles they forgot about pace. It was tolerable in the first episode where it contributed to the love story, but after that it became annoying.

Wonderfully produced and mostly good acting. Plot is poorly thought through, messy. The worst part is that is sooooooooooo slow.

As an old and picky consumer of espionage stories, I was attracted to this series by its title, besides the excellent reviews. After finding myself wasting 5 hours of my life, let me just cry: "don't you dare call this a spy story!" For the review of such bummer, I propose the technique of the "onion peeling", i.e. you remove layer after layer and see what is left at the core. Well, the first layer is the photography, the visuals, the imagery: very sleek indeed; next layer, soundtrack: very cool; then the layer of acting performances: pretty good, as the strong cast was promising. So we have removed all the layers supposed to wrap the core, i.e. the story, the plot, the idea.....ooops, there's nothing less....or, the little that is there is so implausible, so absurd that you would prefer the total absence. So in summary, a lot of window dressing, not much more....
