Ozark(s01-s02)- review


Hi! Today I'm coming to you with Ozark, American production by Netflix Originals. This series tells a story about the financial adviser, who's laundering money for a Mexican drug cartel and because of that, he must to move to another place with his family. This place proved to be a small town at the lake - Ozark. The family has to struggle with many difficult situations like the pressure from the cartel or local society. The series has two seasons, but the third has been announced.


The main character is Marty Byrde (Jason Bateman). He's an example of a great character in series and movies, because he can be a little bit ironic, he's also assertive and smart and that's why he escaped from the death when the cartel discovered a scam. He's not good with family relations, sometimes he's cold to his children and wife, but he tries to save them from his mistakes in many ways. 


Wendy Byrde (Laura Linney) is Marty's wife. She knows about his criminal involvment, but she tries to help him with it. She's a lobbyist by profession, so she knows how to manipulate people and negotiate terms. She's also very clever, assertive and protective, she would do anything for her children. 

Whole series is great, very atmospheric and gripping. This is also a very strong production, it puts many taboo topics forward, like drugs, teenagers' problems and many criminal actions, which are current in these days.

Bye!
