Many people have really criticized the show while others speak about how much they loved it, honestly I believe the show was a good and fun watch for most of the part. I will only review it based on my recent experience with season 5 and season 6.
First off, season 5 was where most of the new characters really start to feel alive. Such as Daniel, (the character played by Amir Gawabreh) he really becomes one with the character during this season and you can feel it happen as the episodes go on. Mircea Drimbareanu is another actor who really felt at home while being the main villain of season 5 (Damian). He had the look and the attitude petfect for it and even had a good redemption arc during season 6 where he really made the viewers pity him. As for the good characters then I couldn't mention any other before mentioning the one who plays Madalin (Bogdan Marchidan). He really was good at being that one guy that protects his family at all cost, even breaking the law but still having morals unlike his enemies.
The plot is quite tangled and confusing at times but it kinda helped the show stand out in some way just like the plot twists and cliffhangers kept the story interesting most of the time. One downside would be the massive amount of comedic relief moments that the show has, it goes from a serious angle in the main plot to this silly subplot. The comedic side itself is not bad as the actors themselves are quite good but it really kills the ruintime the show could have used for the main plot or other related stuff.
In conclusion I think the show got too much hate from certain critics who failed to see the good parts in it while only focusing on the bad side, such as the early seasons or the not so good actors who also worked on the show.
