Faute de preuves

This showed promise at the beginning, but it required way too much suspension of disbelief. Were the police incompetent, or corrupt? An Investigative reporter given free rein to explore the crime scene? This is one series which could have used the usual Netflix Rainbow- United-Nations-Diversity Casting method. The early problem with this is that so many characters are introduced and they all look alike. It was hard to follow who was with whom? The women are all the same build, with long black hair, olive complexions and heavy eyebrows. With a couple exceptions, the men have short-cropped grey/salt and pepper hair with matching short cropped, gray/ salt and pepper beards. The teenage boys all look like Raj from the "Big Bang Theory." Until the finale- I couldn't tell Bruno from Armando from Gael. Maybe that was the point, since apparently everyone in town had something to do with the crimes- why not make them all look alike? A lost opportunity here. The final twist was obvious from the beginning- did the police investigate at all?

I was pretty intrigued after episode 1. The plot was solid with a lot of different ways the story could go and plenty of characters to keep you guessing. After that first episode however the execution was unfortunately pretty awful.

I kept having to remind myself that the main character was a journalist and not a cop because the amount of access this woman gets as events unfold in active investigations is that of only those actually investigating the crimes. That aspect alone was frustrating because the show is so focused on the main character. She is increasingly frustrating to watch as the show continues, making very cliche poor decisions. The conclusion is unpredictable, so it gets points for that, although admittedly by the end I was just finishing the show for the sake of finishing it.

The script and idea were promising, with good potential to create a gripping story. However, the poor editing and very bad performances turned it into a confusing and slow series that failed to maintain engagement. The lack of pacing, awkward scene transitions, and uninspired acting made it frustrating to watch. What could have been a compelling thriller ended up feeling disjointed and tedious. The atmosphere and setting had promise, but the execution fell flat, making it difficult to connect with the story or characters. The dialogue felt unnatural, and the tension never fully developed, leaving a disappointing final result.

First off I'm argentinian, so this may be a little biased. You have been warned.

When I started watching this series I thought it would be the typical missing girl movie/series. I don't wanna spoil anything, but let's just say it's not what it may seem at first look...in a good way. You think you know what's happening and then it takes some very unexpected turns.

The story is ultimately not "shocking", but I think that's something good, it ads to its overall credibility.

Acting is decent. Dialogues are reasonably good and credible (as a lawyer I found some police lines kinda dumb, but that's unavoidable in a work of fiction) music is ok, photography is good.

I would recommend this. It's not one of the best series out there, but it's well above average, especially for Netflix standards.

For the people like me who love Spanish thrillers don't listen to the bad reviews!

I don't dissect a film into smithereens, I just go by the emotions and feelings I get out of it.

The acting was excellent, I see no problem with any of the actors , the main character actually reminded me of Ann Bancroft lol, even the same mannerism, RIP Anne.

The landscapes were beautifully filmed.

The plot started out with you thinking , oh I know what's going on, but step by step unravelled. Every time you thought you knew the ending , nope, there comes another twist. I like this kind of narrative very much I guess that's why I gave this film 8 stars.

I can completely and without hesitation recommend this series!
