What makes it different from others?

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Unfortunately, like many other American movies, the scenes, people, behaviors, culture, events are full of lies and misrepresentation of reality of Iran. the movie is part of the political meddle in this country. So offensive to people and their understanding of reality!

Well (Fox), sign of hypocrisy times... Langley chic goes into meeting, chiding good 'ol boys (because she gets reverse praise for that}, "...misogynist men...". Well, I wasn't, but this social agenda in every media is making me jump to misogyny, and many others.(You who are so "victimized"; what BS. and you got your management job and six figures from Federal law putting you in job, which wouldn't have gotten otherwise being crazy making and toxic (thanks fed. gov.!)

The series is a little slow to start, the first couple of episodes I found to be a little slow and confusing. However, after that, the series started making more sense. By the time the series (first series) wraps up, it becomes obvious what they're really saying: the power behind the throne(s), is massive, and does things that the governments need to cover up. Not, the other way around.Mark Strong, whom I am a tremendous fan of, is amazing. And yes, that is Gendy from GoT, and his wife was in Strike Back as a Mosad agent. Overall a great group of people that work well together.

This one is definitely one of the best shows on TV - not sure why so underrated!! Mark Strong is fascinating as always and Karime McAdams is stunning!!!
