ThiefHott Too much of everything

Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

jmccrmck-65172 I would affirm the other positive reviews here and reiterate #1 how enjoyable the show is and #2 how unlike it is to your typical American fare Television. If you gravitate to foreign films the you should probably give this a go. Season #1, episode #7 " The Princess " is allegory for Rita's own troubled youth and life which has'nt been dealt with directly in the series up to that point. I myself didn't get it until my partner clued me in. A very subtle story line and literary device, like a good movie, which you're not likely to find very many places on TV. I recommend it and feel grateful Netflix puts these "foreign" TV shows on its network.

S W I've watched all of the series and wanted to watch the last season, but I can't get over the fact that the protagonist (Rita) smokes around children! I had to stop watching in disgust. They show how she smokes in the school yard while engaging in conversation with small children! While being ever so cool... Are you serious?! It's the 21st century already. Haven't you heard of second hand smoking! Haven't you heard of all the detrimental effects it has on children. Unforgivable, careless, irresponsible. Also, a woman with that ass did not bear 3 children. Unrealistic.

Tabe Storm First of all: The acting is good. Especially the leading character does a great job. But the story lines just develop very slowly. Too slowly. And they could've deleted some scenes. But on the other hand.. it's enjoyable to watch and sometimes when you think a storyline closed, it suddenly pops up again a few episodes later. That makes things realistic. But I have to say: There are many series better than this one. Some characters we've seen before in other series. Such as Hjördis and Rosa. Although the scenes with Rita and Hjördis are quite funny. Just like the relationship between Rita and her youngest son. Anyway. Would I recommend it? I don't know. It depends on your taste. But if you're prepare to give it a go, then you should certainly watch at least three episodes, 'cause like I said.. the story lines develop pretty slowly and it only gets interesting after a few more episodes.

Jan Vervloet I think we all can think about this one anarchist teacher we once had, at least I can. This series follows Rita a teacher who doesn't follow the rules and who's live is slowly falling further apart because of her behavior. Apart from family troubles she gets caught in quite a few affairs, oh the drama, which pretty much gives her the tittle of home wrecker.The series does draw you in when you watch it, the awkward scenes tend to be cringe- worthy but none the less it's all very thought out.The lead actress does a fabulous job, the other actors are quite on point as well and portray interesting characters that you just want to get to know inside out.Overall it's pretty great.
