High Heat

The story is good but the police force in this series are just a joke, annoying and frustrating... literally the detective has less brain cells than A random role.

As this Mexican series gets underway Poncho learns of his brother's murder. He was a journalist investigating a story that led to a Mexico City fire station. Poncho decides to find out what happened so heads to the fire station and ends up joining the crew. Meanwhile Ricardo Urzúa arrives and takes over the job of running the station; he has a secret though; he has just ended a twenty five year prison sentence for murder! Shortly after arriving Poncho gets involved with Olivia, the only woman on the team. If that weren't enough we get numerous subplots involving various firefighters and the people who live in the boarding house opposite the station which is run by the widow of the former chief; these are a group of women and the owner's gay son who fancies one of the firemen.

This series is melodrama, pure and simple. The central story of the hunt for the killer of Poncho's brother's killer and the truth behind Ricardo's motives would probably have been enough to sustain the series but every character in the fire station and boarding house seems to have drama in their lives. This isn't a major problem; it means there is always something happening and there are plenty of twists; some more plausible than others. There is a fair amount of sex and nudity but this reduces in later episodes as the plot homes in on the killer. Each episode provides tense moments and frequently end with cliff-hangers. The acting is solid; sometimes it feels like there is some overacting but I thought that suited the melodramatic nature of the series. Overall I found this to be a fun series.

These comments are based on watching the series in Spanish with English subtitles.

Let's start with the script, which lacks substance and development, they tried to handle many stories at the same time, not to mention the "unreal" situations that fall into fantasy, even La Rosa de Guadalupe has better writers. It seems like the typical Mexican novel that seeks to stay on the air and continues to lengthen. On the other hand, the performances, I cannot deny that if the script and the direction were not the best, these will affect the performance of the actors, but it is necessary to emphasize that there was one or another actor who made an effort to sell the story of his character. But the one who played "Poncho" deserves a Razzie, what a lousy and mediocre performance.

It is what it says on the tin. Sizzling hot. No male frontal nudity, some female bosom. Episode 2-8 lots of X-tion, episode 9-16 more into the main plot - The (real) Butcher of Reynosa. Episode 17-25 feel like the main plot and a few others are climaxing soon and I think I'll watch some more due to really killer cliffhangers at the end of episode 24 and 25! However, the bad news is they should have continued to build up momentum and tension and finish the season strong at episode 35 tops! Instead the show's taking a detour yet again with the flashbacks for a character I don't care about....

For a telenovela the pacing is quick unlike the other soaps that I'm struggling with (The Marked Heart & Pasion de Gavilanes).

In the first few episodes serious scenes that move the plot that interchange into sex scene can be jarring. But this doesn't happen in later episodes when the main plot get into the main focus.

Overall I find it enjoyable and I can binge a lot of episodes in one sitting. A great weekday watch.
