La locura

Coleman Domingo is becoming my favorite actor. He really can make reading the phone book a compelling story. And that's just about as compelling as The Madness right now. The dialogue is almost embarrassingly bad. They try very hard to be punchy and snappy but it comes across as very predictable and corny.

From the beginning, there's much about the story that just defies the most basic commonsense. I constantly find myself asking 'why why why?!' So much so that after episode 2, I skipped episode 7 just to see what happens at the end. I have little doubt that there's little more than lots of overwrought storytelling and superfluous dialogue in the episodes I skipped.

6 Episodes in but still so much of it is cringeworthy, the script is its own worst enemy. Unfortunately the writers have made the characters all seem like total morons where they make decisions that are simply not realistic, From the main characters who make decisions that no sane person would ever do to the police and FBI who all do things that would just never happen in real life as they would all get the sack to all the supporting roles, it really hurts the overall story. It is like watching one of those horror movies where the characters all decide to split up as they don't want to work together even though there is an axe wielding maniac somewhere. I like the premise of the story and the acting while not great is ok but the script is just awful. I am really struggling to finish this.

Just started watching and it's a 6-8 possibly. Just wanted to get on here and direct attention to how weird these reviews are. Either 10s or 5 and below. It feels like people either love it or hate it with no in-between. Personally, I think it's solid so far, but not mind-blowing. Some aspects are really engaging, while others are a bit predictable or drag at times. The acting is decent, and the pacing is alright, though it could use more depth in some areas. Overall, I wouldn't rate it a perfect 10, but it definitely deserves more nuance than what I've been seeing in these reviews. It's a watchable show with potential that might get better as it goes. Hopefully, as it progresses, it finds a better balance.

Started with plenty of promise but the story was unnecessarily dragged out with far too many episodes!! Half of the episodes would have sufficed imo.

The main character pmo. He's supposed to be highly regarded and intelligent but kept making one bad choice after another which (I think) helped undermine his credibility.

I appreciated the concept of the show - exposing corruption and showing how ordinary people can be caught in the crossfire of systemic greed and political schemes. And also highlighting the dangers of unchecked corporate influence!! But the execution was a little disappointing.

This show started pretty good and it was very interesting, but somewhere in the middle of it, I got lost.

The characters were good, the acting could have been better, but I think that everything could have been sorted out in like five or six episodes. It became boring.

Too much dragging and unnecessary scenes and moments. I got to the end, somehow.

Also, some scenes were to cringe and not believable at all. Very mediocre. It felt like I was watching some type of telenovela.

All in all, I do recommend this because it was not that bad, it was okay with a dose of boredom.

Was sorry for that guy Franco, you'll see.
