Waar kijk je The Wire?
The Wire (2002) staat nu in Nederland op HBO Max.
Told from the points of view of both the Baltimore homicide and narcotics detectives and their targets, the series captures a universe in which the national war on drugs has become a permanent, self-sustaining bureaucracy, and distinctions between good and evil are routinely obliterated.
Onze korte recensie
The Wire" (2002, tv) - David Simon's sprawling crime opus attempts systemic critique across five seasons but sometimes mistakes density for depth, yet its unflinching commitment to portraying institutional decay across Baltimore remains unmatched in scope and moral clarity.
