Onisciente

If you like dystopian future drama then this is for you. Some of the scenes were slow and unnecessary in my opinion (sex scenes) but the acting was fairly good and I do like dramas where the actors are unknown to me. I can't take the hype of well known U.K./USA/Aussie/NZ actors being in vogue when truth be told most are very one dimensional. Netflix does well putting on series from other parts of the world. It seems to me that the scriptwriters of this series are leaning to giving us more information and expanding the characters and I look forward to series 2.

I enjoyed the characters, the mystery, the suspense and drama. I look forward to season 2 - because season 1 does not finish the story.

I had some suspicions about what was really going on, and as the season progressed I even guessed some of the motives. But it wasn't completely obvious, and even after I'd guessed some of it I still enjoyed watching the show to see how it would turn out.

I was hoping that Season 1 would be a complete story, but they ended it with a cliff-hanger. So I really hope there is a Season 2 and that the story is completed. I hate to invest so much time and emotion into a story only to have it never completed.

There was a brief time when I was doubtful about the antagonist's end goal - I didn't see that it would accomplish very much. But there were one or two lines that I remember that explain the end goal to my satisfaction. Blackmail is mentioned, but blackmail would only work once and then the whole system would be shut down because it would have obviously failed, and then everybody loses. Blackmail in this scenario is just the threat of 'mutually assured destruction' meant to protect the main goal. Don't try to take me down or I'll burn down everything and destroy us both. The main motivation is money, and there are many more ways of making money than through blackmail.

A very interesting show that reminds me of Black Mirror. Very exciting, a good binge-watch show, hope there will be a 2nd season!

I was a little sceptic about this one. But turned out to be a nice surprise. Interesting plot and decent acting. Waiting on a second season to see how this will develop.

Similar in tone to Aldous Huxley's Brave New World - the action is divided between a controlled social system that delegates law and order inside the city to a central computer, and an unmonitored outside zone. The design of the city settings is minimalist Stepford-wife suburban and rather stylised (it reminded me a little of the Good Place - a colourful and safe, yet socially stifling and souless utopia). The outside scenes are more redolent of contemporary Brazilian backstreets (or how those are depicted in other Brazilian movies I've seen). I enjoyed the contrast - which is very clear. As another reviewer said, it's essentially a Brazilian Black Mirror. But it has its own flavour and Carla Salle is rather compelling in the central role.
