Savage Beauty

I enjoyed this action packed suspense series." Nollywood " (Nigerian Hollywood) has been around for years. Never a tedious moment. It's the 1 thing Netflix got right by adding the genre to its mundane carbon copy programming.

A fresh take on the politics of the fashion industry and how certain actors in it just fall in line for the sake of keeping up appreances. What you have in this show is a strong willed man prioritizing appearances while his family suffers and a vengeful woman blinded by revenge suffering the same fate. Looking forward to a second season where there is a greater character arc involved for some of the cast. Well designed sets and wardrobe.

Starts strong with a conventional but intriguing world building: rich family, dirt behind the glamour, past tragedies, etc.

It kind of loses its sparkle in the last episodes, because there are too many twist and turns and the vast majority are way too gratuitous.

Characters go from smart and manipulative to dumb and out of control with seemingly no reason, the quality of the script in general is a bit discontinuous and so is the tonal shift.

I would still give a chance to another season tho, just too see if they find a convincing way to wrap up the many subplots. Great soundtrack th.

Mmmm.

First of all, I would like to say that it is a very high quality production. The costumes and scenes were absolutely top quality. The character of Grace is definitely my favourite. The messages told in the series and the caste system are reflected very well. We realized once again how cunning and unethical the cosmetics industry is. The cruelty behind beauty is beautifully portrayed. Definitely watch it and let others watch it too.

A very interesting and very thrilling tv show.

The story touches on a lot of social problems, injustice and above all reveals what humans are capable of doing to get what they want. Whether it is to enrich, take revenge or even to do good.

The story always keeps you on your toes, because you never know what's going to happen. I recommend this tv show to everyone who is looking to listen to something thrilling with a lot of suspense.
