El silencio

Knowing how entertaining and full of plot twists spanish movies and tv-series, usually, are, and with a cast that is quite relevant at this point, especially on younger generations, I started this series with a lot of expectations, but I gotta admit that the trailer was actually better than the series itself.

The first episode is good, but in retrospect only because it makes you question a few things that you wish you're going to enjoy during the other episodes, but that never happened, and not because the plot isn't good enough, but because it's narrated in the wrong way and with the wrong timing.

A lot of the reviews seem to be quite negative, but tbh I didn't think it was that bad.

Yes, some aspects may seem unrealistic and yes some decisions were questionable, but I think Aron Piper's acting was good enough to get you through it.

Through the series I think the plot and the twists we were presented with were pretty good at keeping you guessing as to what was happening. Though it wasn't revolutionary or anything, I enjoyed it . The ending was something I actually didn't mind which may be controversial. This whole review may be controversial by the looks of it.

Overall though it was decent and I'd say you should give it a go if you're into the genre.

It's not what it looks like. The beginning is not indicative of the rest of the show. I agree with another reviewer who said they stretched it out too far. And the character of the shrink was so unbelievable, it's hard to look past it. Seriously, it cannot be overstated - that character is just unreal. No adult would make those decisions.

The acting is ok. Not terrible, not great. The story line is just convoluted. This is a good show to have on while you do other things. After watching the first episode, get the laundry done, clean your kitchen, and check back every once in a while. Be back for the final episode, and you won't have missed anything.

The falling bodies onto the streets and roofs of cars caught my attention from the trailer and the first episode did get off with a good start. As the detective unravels the crime scene by describing the events that took place, that was quite good.

But then the show begins to stall by episode 2 and it doesn't pick up again until the last episode. Episodes 2 through 5 feel more like filler material and my attention began to give out on this show. They could have cut out huge chunks of this film and made it more interesting. I think it had enough material for a 90-minute movie. But a 6-episode limited run series, I don't think they had enough story material.

Tv-show is called muted and the premise is that the main character hasn´t spoken to anyone in six years since he killes his parents. But in fact he speaks to everyone except some people in the police and law department. This pretty much ruins thew whole premise of the movie and it never gets any better. A really boring main actor who just looks like he is misplaced in every scene he is in. Surronded with a few more b- actors/actresses makes this a snooze fest and except for the first 10 minutes when the murder is committed there is just nothing engaging about it. You never feel sorry for the main actor in any scene, you just feels he is pathetic and weird. I won´t spoil the ending but come on, really???? Number one stupidiest tv-show this year.
