I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

very very very interesting series . thank you very much . I like its continue ... it's a way for all people to learn more about the Second World War. Absolutely Brilliant,My greatest fear is that they will finish with season 3 . Really excited to continue watching this series.I recommend this show to anyone who wants to watch a good thriller with good characters

This compelling Canadian-made drama hooked me from the first episode I watched this year. I happened to see the pilot after the first season was complete and therefore had to go on-line to catch up. The characters are well written and the story is realistic, if not entirely accurate historically. The Germans speak German which adds to the authenticity but I wonder why the French do not speak French for the most part. The settings, both outside and inside various buildings and other structures ring true and are carefully created. This adds greatly to the sense of period and makes the historic settings even more realistic. Having not been a tremendous fan of Canadian drama in the past I am thrilled to have found this series and highly recommend it. Even the cinematography is sound and avoids some of the 'cleverness' and 'artsiness' that sometimes makes Canadian drama difficult to watch.

Canadian TV has long since been a cautionary tale. What with its poor reputation at home, and usually abroad, there's been a yearning to reignite the revolution of quality TV.Is X Company a part of it? In a word: No. It obviously had a pretty decent budget as far as Canadian TV goes. There are some explosions, some rather huge external location scenes, that aren't a pretty penny to waste, and a high calibre of guest star (and main cast) from Germany, France, UK, and Canada. However, some of the editing is very poor, failing to create tension in scenes that need it, and the continuity in some scenes is so bad, it makes me wonder if there was anyone actually behind the monitors checking for inaccuracies at all. Then there's the score that goes from subtle strings to over the top, almost computerised, tones that overpowers the scenes. But in actuality, those problems are slight when it comes to the actual writing of the show. In fact, there were points watching this show, which is based on the real Camp X, a crucial, if slightly forgotten, part of WWII history, that I actually found it rather offensive to the people who were solders in WWII, fighting on the front line and as part of the French Resistance. The writing, rather than going for slightly 'green' and 'new' at this spy game, goes overboard with episode after episode featuring the team being incompetent and overly reckless before scrapping to save the day. It's not even entertaining seeing this not-so- merry band failing to be smart and efficient at the job they signed up to do. This then further highlights another issue: the writers' efforts to make the show procedural. Again, this starts to feel slightly misguided when the reality is: war was never procedural, never an episode wrapped up in a plot of the week. So when these writers are taking real events, such as the Lebensborn programme, and then leave them with very little follow up, just feels not only a wasted opportunity to depict the scale of these horrors, but kind of an insult to leave these actualities wrapped up in a neat, if messy, little bow. However, there are positives. They have a great ensemble cast that is better than the material they're forced to serve, with the exception of Hugh Dillon who is the weak link of the whole thing and a struggle to watch. Evelyne Brochu, who has made a name for herself in Québécois film and TV, really shines in the quiet moments when there's no dialogue to drag it down. Warren Brown is always good as a hard man with a heart. Sadly, the characters are often second fiddle to the main plot of the week. Aurora, (Brochu) has to deal with being a Sergeant, but falls into the regular writing tropes of a sole female in a male dominated piece, where she tends to spend a lot of time standing behind while the dudes get into petty arguments. After loosing what seemed to be her great love, the need to have her become love interest for the 'superhero' Alfred Graves is frankly a disservice to strong women on TV and the real women that were in amongst the fight of WWII.Another positive is the attempt to give the Nazi perspective. I particularly like the refusal to insult the intelligence of the viewers (Shame they do it in other ways) by having the scenes in German and the humanising the enemy is a smart one, as it further highlights the atrocities of the both sides of war. The German cast are excellent in their roles.I've seen production say they wanted to make this show accessible to a modern audience, but in actuality the atrocious attention to detail, from the lack of period type speaking manner, to the cringe worthy inaccurate historical references (example: C-4 did not exist until the mid-1950s yet is mentioned in episode four) has only served to make it feel cold and ridged, and lack a chemistry and charm. Artistic licence with the truth is fine, but it must be backed up with good writing and plotting, which isn't on show here. On the bones of it, the premise has/had the potential to be Canada's version of The Bletchley Circle. Instead, it just feels like yet another Canadian show for people to roll their eyes and go: "Oh Canada." And for that, I'm hugely disappointed. With ten episodes for season two, I hope the writers are aware of the issues and seek improvement, but with the attitude I've seen from one of the writers who comments on this very website, and feels the need to call people who have legitimate critiques 'bullies' or 'haters', I can't say I'm hopeful. I hope they take some notes from The Bletchley Circle AND Marvel's Agent Carter on how to write engaging historical events (the former), and mixing it with interesting characters going through grief and the emotional cost of war, that never feel far away from reality (both).

Is this historically accurate? No, not at all. Is it entertaining? Very much so.This is all character development. Story. I really cant wait for the next series now that series 2 has been given the green light.In this day and age we have Agents of Shield, Captain America et al. All of which are complete fantasies. This is a hi-bred. It is demonstrably a more realistic rendition of Marvels Agent Carter, same same but with a thin veneer of accuracy. More compelling than Carter, simply because it is more closely aligned with the truth.Having said that, it is a very well characterised fantasy rendition of reality where the emphasis is on characterisation.In any event, very compelling. Looking forward to the next rendition.
