Filha da Lei

Due to several subplots (detective's relationship with her ex-husband, detective's daughter's stupid escapades along with her nutty friends), none of which contribute much to the series, there is a huge amount of wasted screen time. This series would have been much better at 8 episodes instead of 20. Also, a lot of the scenes and dialogue are painfully bad. My wife and I rate it 6.5 and would not recommend it.

A solid Portuguese cop show, with a female lead. It has cookie cutter tv noir elements, and does drag at times, but the shift to othercharacters: a bratty teen daughter, a novice partner, a macho a hole, and a serial killer. The constant sucking on a vape cig loses its appeal early on, but the taut mother daughter relationship will be familiar to many of us.

I looking forward to seeing a Portuguese thriller but it is bad unfortunately: bad acting, bad scenario (plenty of unbelievable scenes), bad music, bad directing. Amateurish. Was there a producer there to point out the mistakes?

Watch "the killing" for instance and if you cannot do something 80% as good do not bother.

It has nothing to do with money by the way..
