Tribus de Europa

Tribes of Europa, February's most anticipated series is finally out and, even though I was expecting a much bigger smash, it's still very decent and entertaining post-apocalyptic stuff with an original world. The story is set in 2074, Europe has suffered a mysterious global catastrophe that has brought it back to the Middle Ages, where, instead of states, there various tribes with different traditions and technologies. The idea is great and I enjoyed exploring that world with the main characters. Unfortunately, it’s not as dirty and action-packed, but it reminded me a lot of Hunger Games and The 100, so if you're a fan of at least one of those, you won't be disappointed. The series has a nice production design, when it comes to action it's brutal and nicely shot, the intrigue, betrayals and twists work well to the point that I feel the Germans are building their own Game of Thrones. I was most impressed by the tribe of black crows, the villains – their Princess Varvara with her Angelina Jolie look is literally hypnotic with her sex appeal . There are three storylines going on at the same time and all of them are interesting and engaging enough in their own way. I had a great time and am excited for the second season. The cards are dealt and as a start of something spectacular, Tribes of Europa is solid. It's strange It=s strange that there are three characters that look almost exactly like Angelina Jolie, Mads Mikkelsen and Jennifer Lawrence. Pros: interesting and originally imagined world, solid pacing, likeable characters, a decent dose of twists and intrigue, the visuals and the brutality. Cons: lacks a downright epic action scene, the script could have been more imaginative. 7.5/10. (20.02.2021)
