Review of Manayek

Manayek (2020– )
8/10
Intense and skillful - not sure of the realism though
26 July 2023
/Refers to Seasons 1 and 2/

In recent years, I have managed to watch 10+ Israeli crime/drama series and I have found them interesting (yet I have no Jewish roots and visited Eilat briefly once). Manayek in another solid brick in this wall - intense scenes, dynamic characters, realistic performances (and most performers here not "regulars" in Israeli series, I recognised Ishai Golan only).

True, the initial dual confontration of the main characters almost disappeared in Season 2, and what about so many policemen engaged in so severe crimes (Israel has relative high place in Transparency corruption list; well, dealings where politicians involved are plausible)... But still a solid production, looking forward to next season(s).
