Sky Rojo

I watched all 3 seasons of Sky Rojo (24 episodes at a half-hour each give or take a minute) in a week, which is quick for me. The story of 3 prostitutes in a Tenerife brothel who go on the run after stealing their pimp boss's money zips by, each episode ending on a mini-cliffhanger which makes it almost impossible not to want to immediately watch the next one. Veronica Sanchez, Lali Esposito and Yany Prado are crazy good as the 3 hookers on the lam, and Asier Etxeandia plays the wonderfully irredeemable brothel boss Romeo. A word of warning - some scenes are particularly violent, gory even, so watcher beware. That said, a definite a thrill-a-minute watch.

Good show. And sends a great message about hookers and strippers. Hats off to the real strippers. Good action and screenplay. One time watch series. Lets see what gonna be new in season 2. And theres lot of sex scenes so dont watch it with family.

Are you a fan of Money Heist, Squid Game, Tarantino films, etc? If yes, you will probably enjoy Sky Rojo. Plenty of violence, nudity, action, drama, and dark comedy. All episodes flow nicely and are easy to watch even with subtitles (recommended over dubbed version). Sure there are plotholes and the chasing can after a while seem repetitive, but the gore and explicitness ensure the viewer is never really bored.

Lastly, the show seems quite expensive and well thought out in terms of production value and cinematographic detail so if that's important for you there shouldn't be any disappointment.

First, if you like movies or cinematography from Quentin Tarantino you'll love this one. Second, acting is correct from the main cast. Nothing superb but good performances from the main trio. Last, some good old songs in the show from movies like Kill Bill or Trainspotting.

On the other hand, the series includes a lot of cliches and so many questions to answer (maybe on season two) and unbelievable situations from the characters.

So, overall an acceptable Tarantinian Spanish style series for an easy watch (the whole season is watchable only in 4 hours).

SkyRojo (English audio) so far the first season is nowhere close to the thrilling and rip-roaring MoneyHeist. So please don't have high expectations if you are watching, because you loved MoneyHeist ❤
