Largo Winch: A comic book hero in the real world
fio400023 July 2003
Taken from the hardcover comic books by Jean Van Hamme and Philippe Francq and adapted for television, this film is the begining of the wonderful adventure of a hero who, the only powers in his hands are his charm, sense of adventure and justice.

It's the story of an orphan (Largo Winch) who finds out that his rich billionaire tycoon father (Nerio Winch) got killed and that he inherits all his assets. Eventually he is the target of a secret organization and also all his father's enemies.

This film is important because it is the starting film that made possible a wonderful television series called the Largo Winch series. It is also important because its co-producers are from many countries including Canada, France and the U.S.A. It shows to the world that co-operation can sometimes produce an interesting result...

Full of action, got me hooked

Watching this pilot for the Largo Winch series got me hooked, and I can't get enough of it! Paolo Seganti is great as the title character, and his companions (Diego Wallraff, Sydney Penny, and Geordie Johnson) add lots of character. I'd definitely recommend this to all fans of an action/espionage type drama.

The best series EVER
kiepie_els29 April 2004
The Largo II series just started here in SA and I want to tell you guys, this is the very best series that has EVER seen the light of day.

The cast are awesome and the producers and directors know just how to keep you on the edge of your seat.

It is interesting, makes you think, and just give you lot of smiles and laughs. I think the actors are real stars and I just want to say that you are the best

I have search the web red to try and find out if there will be a third series, if anyone can post a message somewhere as to the likelyhood of a third series it would be greatly appreciated.

I would not miss this story for the world.
