Sous la braise

Let's start with the script, which lacks substance and development, they tried to handle many stories at the same time, not to mention the "unreal" situations that fall into fantasy, even La Rosa de Guadalupe has better writers. It seems like the typical Mexican novel that seeks to stay on the air and continues to lengthen. On the other hand, the performances, I cannot deny that if the script and the direction were not the best, these will affect the performance of the actors, but it is necessary to emphasize that there was one or another actor who made an effort to sell the story of his character. But the one who played "Poncho" deserves a Razzie, what a lousy and mediocre performance.

The plot have some holes, ones toy start to watch it is really difficult not continue. No all movies or series have to be perfect but this one is really good.

The plot pretty much is related with the police investigation and a lot of twisted crazy stuff.

Now all the sex in the show are really extremely hard.

I'm really in on this show with my wife so I have to watch it with pibe mind .

At least we having pretty good shows in Spanish honestly is worth it to see.

You chose is you want to see something different.

Is not the best show ever but pretty awesome to watch.

The last shows from Netflix left if in a cliff hanger.

Give the shot to this one.

First 9 episodes are way too many greased up abs and pointless 15 second sex montages for my liking, but made a paradigm shift for some explanation at epi 10 and became way more watchable. My first telenovella. It's hokey as hell. Found myself screaming at the screen often, asking how can these characters be so stupid? But I still find it a total blast to watch!

Decent plot that drags on to 39 episodes because of too many distractions and tangential stories. The main story is spoiled by way too many irrelevant scenes of sex. This series should be designated LG. The real story is probably 10%, rest does not make sense. Such a waste.

It is what it says on the tin. Sizzling hot. No male frontal nudity, some female bosom. Episode 2-8 lots of X-tion, episode 9-16 more into the main plot - The (real) Butcher of Reynosa. Episode 17-25 feel like the main plot and a few others are climaxing soon and I think I'll watch some more due to really killer cliffhangers at the end of episode 24 and 25! However, the bad news is they should have continued to build up momentum and tension and finish the season strong at episode 35 tops! Instead the show's taking a detour yet again with the flashbacks for a character I don't care about....

For a telenovela the pacing is quick unlike the other soaps that I'm struggling with (The Marked Heart & Pasion de Gavilanes).

In the first few episodes serious scenes that move the plot that interchange into sex scene can be jarring. But this doesn't happen in later episodes when the main plot get into the main focus.

Overall I find it enjoyable and I can binge a lot of episodes in one sitting. A great weekday watch.
