Into the Night Complete S01 720p WEB-DL x265 HEVC
This is a good series and I anticipate a follow-up second run. The drama starts at a good pace and the characters develop through the dialogue/action with a few flashbacks in later episodes to fill out motivation or introduce contradictions. The cast perform well and camera work is unobtrusive. I watched the original dub with english subtitles over two days and it delivered, hence 8 stars. I did find some reviews here unnecessarily harsh, so I watched the first episode again but with the english dubbed dialogue & english subtitles. Wow, there is a huge drop-off. It is quite difficult to engage with these voice performances. A bit more time and money should have been spent on versioning. it's not just a matter of lip-sync dissonance, voices are flat, undeveloped & poorly mixed. Plot points are scattered about without emphasis as if we are hearing a first rehearsal and no-one has read ahead. Many of the Netflix European dramas are treated with poor post-production versions which detract from good original material. I'm no purist and understand that dialogue (and subtitles) will stretch in translation & when working to picture but this could be so much better.
