A deep, fast paced, emotional tale, with gorgeous graphics, hilarious yet serious script and dialogues. Almost perfect in every aspect, one the best things Netflix has ever done. Countless subtle details, for instance the use and the variations of voices; the word "funeral" which occurs at least once in each episode, which clearly foreshadows the finale and should alert the viewer. Yet the finale comes as hurting as a sudden punch you are not ready to.
All is told in a very low, popular, extremely fast spoken Roman dialect full of slang expressions, which become an essential expressive and creative tool in the storytelling. It's a pity that non-Romans (even those who are Italians but not from Rome) will miss at least half the nuances and the layers of the text.
Among the very best Netflix stuff ever, a gem of our time.
