30 Monedas

Plot holes abound but damn if the storyline isn't compelling. Just ignore how contrived it can be and you'll have a good time.

Also, little nitpick here, it feels as if the show has chosen the wrong main character. Clearly the most interesting person in the series is the Priest Manuel. With a dark past and plenty of secrets he's a solid type for the spotlight. But somehow he's the side character?? It's really weird. Makes the show feels off. Like I'm just watching a bunch a secondary characters try and carry the plot along while the main character just sits there and does nothing.

Anyway, still entertaining.

Great production effort for a series that contains the best and worst of Álex de la Iglesia, but in an ambitious format. It is excessive and sometimes clumsy in its development, it leaves characters without course like Elena, but it has great moments of terrifying fantasy with touches of typical Spanish humor. It is better when it pays homage to the Italian giallo (excellent Episode 7) than when it emulates "The Da Vinci Code", but as a whole it offers spectacle and entertainment.

It is hard to explain what this is about. It starts weird and ends even more weird... But I need to know what is going to happen... As always Alex de la Iglesia does a great job to surprise the audience and in this case you end up saying "what the heck just happened?" If you like weird and extremely original series this one is for you. I really like the actors by the way, for the Spanish audience they are pretty recognizable.

Love the setting and the three main characters. The performances from the three main characters are excellent especially Megan Montaner's as Elena. The plot kept my interest and the setting was unique. I am not one of the people that are bothered by subtitles and I enjoyed the unique-strange atmosphere 30 coins provides. It won't be for everyone but I hope to see more.

Another intense horror intrigue suspense movie from Alex de la Iglesia. It reminds me of El día de la Bestia. Really good. Waiting to see what happens next!!
