Medusa

Medusa is an okay watch-neither outstanding nor disappointing. The lead characters have done a commendable job, and the casting feels spot-on. Each actor fits their role well, making the performances one of the series' strong points.

The storyline, however, feels a bit inconsistent. At times, the plot suggests that a character is bad, only to later portray them as good-only for them to turn bad again. This back-and-forth felt a little off, making it hard to fully connect with the story. That said, the premise is intriguing, revolving around the lead heroine's quest to uncover who tried to kill her. The added layer of her amnesia adds to the mystery.

As the story unfolds, dark family secrets come to light, revealing how far people will go for power. The tension between characters is well-developed, though the ending was fairly predictable for me. I could sense where certain tentions were heading, and the ultimate conflict was expected.

Overall, Mediosa is an engaging but somewhat flawed thriller. It has its moments of intrigue but doesn't quite hit the mark for a top-tier mystery drama. Still, it's a decent watch for fans of family drama and suspense.

When I wanted to watch this series, I quickly realized that it was nothing but a collection of erotic scenes with almost no real storyline. It's as if the creators completely forgot about writing a proper script and just focused on adding as much sex as possible. If you're looking for a substitute for p*rno, this series might do the job, but if you actually want a compelling story, don't waste your time.

Instead of relying on excessive eroticism to grab attention, why not invest in real storytelling, proper character development, and an engaging plot? Maybe then, you'd actually attract an audience for the right reasons. Right now, it's painfully obvious that this was a lazy attempt at making a show. It feels cheap, uninspired, and frankly, a waste of time..

To be honest I started this series being excited, as I've never seen something like this particular plot, but as the plot was unfolding, I realised I was forcing myself to watch it. Although I love mystery, suspense and crime, the series became tiring to watch. The endless sex scenes were not adding to the show, the unlikable characters were making it hard to enjoy and the end was unnecessary confusing. I think that 1 season might be enough, and a closure should have been given. I even considered some scenes cringe as well. I would say that this series had potential, but ultimately left me disappointed.

Taking a script that looks like Dallas where everyone is stabbing each others, with a rather cheesy soft romance and unnecessary sex scenes that brings nothing to the characters nor the story. Some omnipresent characters throughout the series are one dimension, and don't evolve. Difficult to watch most of the time. The story line doesn't matter any more after the first episode, as no continuity in the story line. Just some random fact pop up like that out of the blue. As I said it feels like watching a series à l'eau de rose from the 80s b production. I watched it in English, so maybe the dubbing was bad. Not sure if it was in Spanish to start with.

If you enjoy series focussing on seriously dysfunctional families as the members tear each other to pieces, this film is for you. Inevitably, the family is stinking rich with the consequence that everyone is jockeying for positions of power and influence, and of course have absolutely no moral values, although in true soap opera style some do try for redemption by the end of the series. The series was longer than it strictly needed to be, with many convoluted plot twists and turns, but for sheer entertainment value I found it very watchable. Unbelievable - certainly. Engaging - most definitely.
