Reviews (2)
Very good, but it doesn’t beat the previous episode in terms of drama and the tightness of the story. It's a bit undermined by an unnecessarily expository script with twists and surprises the kind you usually see only in films with "super smart scripts". The surprises and coincidences were many and not very believable given the trends set in the beginning.

I would rate the final episode with five stars, but I was really annoyed by the way the creators messed up the first proper clash between the gangs that was building up. This is how I would probably feel if someone stole my wallet and then smugly laughed at me. Anyway, it's still true that I'm looking forward to watching the next season.
