De Bende van Jan de Lichte plot

In 18th-century Flanders, the people are poor and oppressed by yet another occupier. The highwayman Jan de Lichte and his accomplices form a band of robbers, which plunders a bloody trail through Flanders. They raid stagecoaches and castles and divide their loot among the poor. In this way Jan de Lichte grows into a hero against will and thanks.

Nice time frame, great characters in the end. Takes some time to get going, but then entertains and intrigues fine, without going too deep or surprising. It probably won't happen, but hopefully more period pieces like this will follow from Flanders and the Netherlands. Anyway, I have a soft spot for it.

There was a lack of action and story here. At times it also seems like a parody with those failed wigs. The fact that the actors are well known from other roles does not benefit them at all. Cruel images? Haven't seen much than if you think this is cruel

No, I've been looking forward to this for a long time, but I suppose there's a reason this series never got released and now I know why. It's just very mediocre. Without the mayor and, to a lesser extent, the bailiff, this would have scored even less. Stef Aerts surpasses Matteo here too, I think. The rest of the cast are acting pale. You expect more from a Perceval and Matteo Simoni.

setback.

Certainly not due to the actors, some of whom do well, but the script is already too poor.

Was never really touched by the event.

A certain unnaturalness hangs over the whole thing, I would have liked a deeper picture of the gang in its daily existence and to my regret there were hardly any moments that could have lifted the series to a higher level.
