Pacto De Silencio

Brenda wants to know who of the four women her mother is. Instead of doing a simple DNA Test, she tries to find it out by playing small games (sure, because otherwise there would be no series). She is using the most modern technologies, literally everything to hack, track and manipulate the women... I mean she tries to make of the women drunk to make her confess what happened earlier in the past. Ridiculous. I sat there and thougt: Why the hell doesn't she just steel one of their hair even though she has the abilitiy to do it a several times... this series is a nonsense series! I'm sorry!!!!!!!

While I genuinely enjoyed watching this series, I couldn't help but be struck by its uncanny resemblances to Shirley Conran's iconic "Lace.", which was made into a miniseries with Phoebe Cates. From the intricate plot details to the overarching themes, the parallels were too evident to dismiss as mere coincidence. It's intriguing to ponder whether these similarities were intentional homages or unintentional overlaps. Regardless, this element of déjà vu did cast a shadow over my viewing experience. However, it's worth noting that despite these resemblances, the series stands on its own merit. The narrative is engaging, and the plot twists are masterfully executed, ensuring that viewers remain on the edge of their seats. The cinematography and character development further enhance the viewing experience, making it a pleasant watch overall. While comparisons to "Lace" are inevitable, this series offers its own unique flavor and charm, making it a worthy addition to any television enthusiast's viewing.

The series grabs you from the first minute and you can't stop watching it despite its 18 episodes. An effective narrative with constant flash backs, which describes in depth the psychology of each character, their personality, their motivations. Convincing and credible dialogues despite being a classic Soap Opera, and great performances by the entire cast, highlighting the protagonist, Camila Valero, the Director of the Boarding School Chantal Andere, and the deputy Kica Edgar..An Unmissable serie, entirely entertaining, .It combines suspense, drama, family relationships, politics with surprising balance, and despite having too many characters, none of its subplots get in the way or seem unnecessary.

OK.let's admit - it's fun, it's a great mind escape and this show is definitely entertaining and surprisingly - suspenseful and full of twists and turns. It's also a great look into the lifestyle of the beautiful and rich in Mexico City. The acting is quite a Telenovela style - melodramatic, exaggerated and often pompous. It seems that the Mexican TV industry pulled off their heavy guns - all the most famous and most good looking actors to participate in this over complicated and messy plot.

Nevertheless- The storyline is neither reliable nor credible.... After all - 18 Chapters to find your mother, when all you could do is a simple DNA test.

I gave this a 5 because rather than enjoyment it gave me frustration. The series started off well and got me interested, then the frustration started. Brenda is a successful influencer, so could not understand why her character is so stupid. She wanted to know who her mum was. A simple DNA would have sufficed and she could have targeted the woman who gave birth to her. Her devious plan kept hurting people around her and the fact that she kept blaming the others was what kept ticking me off. The writers could have done better job with this soapy drama. Topic was good and storyline intriguing, but somehow went into downfall later on in the show. All in all it was entertaining if like me you love to watch women in nice clothes and living the high end life.
