La Jauría

I expected more, I think they wanted to cover many stories and did not delve into any. Blanca (Antonia Giesen) barely had dialogues, the villain's outcome was very hasty and the way to discover him almost absurd. The dialogues in general about machismo were very basic, all the men were villains and all the women were victims. Great performances by Antonia Zegers, María Gracia Omegna, Paula Lushinger, Lucas Balmaceda and Clemente Rodríguez. Daniela Vega urgently needs some acting classes, although something has improved since "A Fantastic Woman". I hope that if there is a second season they delve deeper into the stories and it will not be so superficially told. 5/10

The plot was good, the script was fine, at first everything was entertaining, first 7 episodes were decent, even though it's hard to understand Chilean Spanish and I'm Mexican, I had to put up subtitles, all hype goes to the final episode, but the final episode really ruined it, I expected a lot more and the actions of some of the characters really ruined up everything that was building around it, it gives a small glimpse of what could become a Season 2 but I doubt it, because in my opinion the final episode ruined the whole story, the lack of answers in the end makes me think it was ended purposely, it could have ended without a clear answer and that would be fine for a Season 2 but it was cut abruptly and separated the whole plot from what could have been something way bigger ended in a local plot with the easiest end.

I rated 5 because for an end like that, made me feel like time wasted. It was just too easy for that end.

The actresses choices doesn't work, specially with Zegers. the protagonist, doesn't feel strong her interpretation, it miss it the intensity that requires the main detective doesn't exist (do a really good job in El Club).

On the other hand, we have Vega who lends too much an intriguing climate, that doesn't feel natural. In general, is a good mini-series, even get to the hype level of La Casa de Papel (Spanish production), have a good script the suspense of the what will happen?, gets it to the spectator, generates pain, discomfort, sadness, and deception for the actions from the men's. Remember an amazing picture that exhibits scenes not often to contemplate it in Chilean productions.

The message is strong and it needs to give attention to all in our world. Every woman in a moment in her life feels insignificant and fearful of the men.

First 3 episodes were OK but after that the plot missed the mark. Could have had potential if they tried to take the story to a more realistic approach, sometimes you get the feeling you are watching Girl with the dragon tattoo wannabe. Just finished it and found delusional the open doors for a season 2 (that for sure I won't be watching). The link between this poor series and the case of "la manada" that took place in Spain is that there is a rape = THE END, nothing else.

I liked this series because it has a lot to tell and show about some realities that some people are not capable of accept yet or don't want to realize (the physical and sexual abuse against women by men in a higher position, the psychological vulnerability of the victims, the impunity of the most powerful persons, etc). However, I think that some stories and some characters that I thought it would be more important for the plot, were not fully developed, maybe because of the lack of money or time or I don't know. Give it a chance!
