Pecados inconfesables

This Mexican series is just like Chinese short dramas - it hooks viewers with over-the-top setups (like the cheating wife, the abusive husband, etc.) and plenty of steamy scenes.

The plot has more holes than Swiss cheese. I mean, didn't Fedra's family have a safe to keep that video? And why does a major twist rely on someone eavesdropping or sneaking into someone else's house? The writing feels so lazy.

And seriously, why is every single character obsessed with the male lead, Iván? Does there really need to be a make-out scene in every episode (with that weird background music, too)?

You can tell the producers know exactly what audiences want right now: a show you can turn your brain off to and just be entertained. But I still wish the story made more sense-especially since it'll probably get a second season. That ending though... I didn't even know what to say.

Gripping yarn. Great story which gains momentum as the series progresses. Lots of unexpected twists and turns. Some very tense moments. Strong characters each with their own story and motives so it's definatly not predictable. Sure, it had its flaws but alow yourself to be absorbed into it and enjoy. I would 100% recomend this series.

This has to be one of the worst series I've ever watched.

You have a pregnant inspector chasing a suspect, then fell over and become beasties, sharing investigation clues and everything. Or a wife messing around with a gigolo in a restroom while her violent billionaire husband waits cluelessly in a restaurant. And the absurdity just keeps going on and on.

The characters are not intelligent at all. I constantly laughed at how ridiculous it was. The main characters, Helena and Ivan, make no sense.

The cast is gorgeous, and the acting isn't bad if you watch it in the original Latin American Spanish language. The English dub makes the acting feel weirdly awkward because it lacks emotion and subtlety. The original language is beautiful.

Unfortunately, the script and directing are just terrible.

So many incredible series get cancelled - why Netflix agreed to produce this one is beyond me.

Not recommended.

This is a Mexican drama/thriller series - what more did you expect? I'm reading some of the negative reviews and honestly don't understand them. Everything should be judged within its own genre.

The actors deliver incredible performances! Great direction, amazing music, and equally strong visual aesthetics.

What a great series about unpaid debts. Beautifully developed characters, and it could easily have happened in this brutal Mexican world. I watched the series straight through, and it's definitely worth seeing. The blackmail and the power of money are well-depicted. I would definitely watch this serie.
