Having watched after reading negative riviews, I am surprise lots. This is an unique well crafted show. This is my genuine opinion. Not bad at all. Stories are not linier that interconnect each other. Each character has connected slightly. I can understand the connection as an episode proceeds. Music is also effective foreshadowing the each characters emotion and setting. Each actor shows quite good acting and persuasive. Why the negative opinions ?I presume that how the story is conved is preferrable. If you don't mind non linier way of story telling, you can like this one. Especially, if you like stories set on New York city. You can enjoy, I hope.

Inarticulate story telling and embarrassing representations of the culture, music and style of the early 2000's era this series sets out to portray is worse than annoying. Although some great actors, good cinematography and surface level production values (as are the hallmarks of Apple TV+'s signature big budget screen productions), the biggest takeaway from this series is how the multitude of real talent in filmmaking is mostly lost on the management of Apple's screen management endeavors. Nepotism well and truly alive here. City on Fire is to date the most poignant screen production of Apple's endeavors to date that begs the question; are huge budgets and attractive industry prestige enough to create good tv and film, or do the industry executives need to go out of their luxurious comfort zones to find the new best talents in writers, directors and creators? Overall, this series is nothing more than a confusing blemish on the Apple brand. Could Apple please dig deeper, as there is a serious responsibility to having the some of the most clout in cultural storytelling in todays troubled world.
