Los favoritos de Midas

What is power and money? Very exciting series , 6 episodes. Luis Tosar, again! Awesome! The police inspector Guillermo Toledo also awesome! Just don't miss it if you like good thrillers with an interesting, .. very interesting subject. The ones only scoring this series with a 2 or 3, just incomprehensible!

I bet the first 3 commenters didn't see a single minute of the series. Or they are eight years old who think they are joking ... The show is very good, one of the best we saw on Netflix this year.

The acting was good, the idea was good... The plot was not. Nothing much happens, we do not learn any new information in like 4 episodes, the ending is bad. A waste of time.

Boring? No. At least first 3 episodes kept me engaged. After that things got a bit too confusing and too complex. Marta Belmonte character was irritating me big deal, the money hungry ex-wife cliché was 'tiring". Did Marta Milans augmented her face? She is only 38, but looks older and surgically "enhanced". Can't accept actors with "fake" faces. Episodes 3-5- too much philosophy that feels rehearsed, robotic. I'll finish watching. But intriguing beginning is not living up to my expectations so far.

Extortion is a dangerous game ... combined with civil unrest ... everyone involved might be in over their head. Or are they? And what does it do to those involved psychologically? If you are responsible if someone lives or dies ... no matter if you know those people or not, it is a heave toll to bear.

So having the main character portrayed by one of Spains finest actors is quite the genius move to make. Also if you know him, you know he can play many things and can portray many things too. Sometimes likeable, sometimes something more sinister ... and we may see some of that here. It is not bad to stretch ones acting muscles ... some of the more "evil" side can be attributed to the stress though that he has to endure - can it not? A short series with an interesting turn of events along the way ... and some romance to spice things up too (social and other questions included)
