The good, the bad and the ugly
This show tells the story of Alex. Alex is a man seeking revenge for the death of his sister and the 18 years he spent in prison for supposedly doing it.
Note: This review contains NO spoilers. I'm giving examples but they are minors and they won't ruin anything for you.
Here is the good, the bad and the ugly:
-The Good:
1. Interesting storyline.
2. Good acting (for the most part).
3. It's a Telenovela style whodunnit (good if you like Telenovelas).
4. Lots of twists and turns.
-The Bad:
1. Unexplained things/plot holes (for example, this guy spent almost 20 years in prison but somehow he is a very talented hacker). Also, from a psychological aspect there are things that do not add up (for example, the young version and the old version seems completely different from one another).
2. No attention to details (for example, a 20 y/o toy looks brand new).
3. It's a Telenovela style whodunnit (bad if you don't like Telenovelas). You've got the rich evil patron, lots of family intrigues, betrayals, complicated love stories and every single thing you can find in your typical Telenovela.
4. Lots of unnecessary nudity (I wish I counted the amount of times I saw butts during this season, I'm pretty sure they achieved a new record).
5. It's just too long. There's a second season coming and personally I think this show could have been much better if it was wrapped up in one season.
-The Ugly: The character of Sara, Alex's sister who was murdered is developing throughout the season and the more you learn about her the less sympathy you feel. She was not a nice person (to say the least) and by the time we learn whodunnit you almost don't care. Even though the true killer is revealed by the end of the season, there's no feeling of satisfaction. At least that's how I felt. First because it was way too obvious who the killer is (at least for me). Second because while we learn the truth, Alex doesn't. Third because they complicated the storyline too much and finally as I mentioned you just stop caring. I highly doubt I'm going to watch the second season. If you do decide to watch it, better wait for the second season to air first and then binge watch it.
One last thing, as an animal lover I really like that the show takes a strong stand against hunting! It's shown as the evil thing that it is but beware there are some horrifying footage of animals been killed! I think it's a good thing because you show people the horrible shocking truth but discretion is advised.
