The new international action series is a huge success, quickly becoming one of the most-watched shows on streaming platforms worldwide.
According to FlixPatrol, the new series Elite Force (originally titled GIGN in French) is now the most popular show on Netflix globally. It’s proving to be a huge hit, reaching the top ten list in an impressive 104 countries, including the United States, Canada, Mexico, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.
What Is Netflix’s Elite Force All About?
Elite Force, created by Julien Leclercq and Sylvain Caron (with Leclercq also directing), centers around a highly skilled team within France’s GIGN – their national gendarmerie intervention group. The series showcases the team as they handle surveillance, security details, and counterterrorism missions. Tomer Sisley plays David Berger, a respected commander haunted by connections to the mysterious death of Laurent, the father of a new member named Max (played by Tristan Zanchi).
Soon after Max joins the GIGN, a daring terrorist group attacks their headquarters, launching a frantic search for answers. This investigation is complicated by secret, parallel inquiries and the personal conflicts that develop within the team.
The action film Elite Force features Guillaume Gouix, Géraldine Pailhas, Thierry Neuvic, Judith El Zein, Nicolas Wanczycki, Leanna Chea, Audrey Looten, and Rudgy Pajany. The cast also includes Mohid Abid, Vanesa Prieto, Kevin Azaïs, and Grégori Derangère, who previously starred in Bon Voyage.
What Critics and Audiences Have to Say About Elite Force
The series has generally received positive feedback from critics and viewers. Currently, it has a rating of 6.0 out of 10 on IMDb, based on over 360 reviews.
Although some viewers haven’t liked the English dubbing, Elite Force has received a lot of praise for its strong writing and realistic dialogue, thanks to writers Leclercq, Caron, Léa Raud, Victor Lockwood, and Elsa Vasseur. The acting in Elite Force is also considered one of the show’s best qualities.
Fans hoping for a second season of Elite Force are still waiting for news. Although the season finale hints at possibilities for the future, we’ll need to wait for Netflix to announce whether or not the show will be renewed and what a new season might look like.
Elite Force is currently available for streaming on Netflix.
