Medusa

I was looking forward to watching this show because so many of my favorite actors from La Reina Del Flow were in it especially Carlos Torres who I think is one of the best actors of our generation. After the first episode, I thought maybe it will get better on the second one. Another episode with terrible writing and multiple sex scenes to distract from the disaster of a show from beginning to end, just terrible writers and lack of creativity really made this series unbearable to watch. I managed to get to the fourth episode and by then could no longer justify the waste of my precious time on such a poorly made series. Shame because some of the cast happen to be brilliant actors and this disaster did nothing to showcase their talent.

In short this show is female centric character named Barbara .. whatever she does is always right this show is made accordingly ..married but..erotic with 50 plus men she is right before accident she has done the humiliantion of humanity within family but she is right..mother missing since 20 yrs ..that time didnt try to find her..suddenly after accident she has become a nice person still whatever she does is right coz its in her favor..Detective is a clown he is also main character ..too much nudity without any logic. In short too many flaws just to show main charactr female right, her husbnd has given his everything for her she has done 50 plus affairs that are fine , husbd done with his assistant..she s saying you cheated me..lol..sometimes it feels how could be so many flaws in the script just to prove her right. Apart from barbara and detective every other character has played good role at the end i would give 1 star out of 10. Very bad execution.

This is simply a story designed to include as many sex scenes as possible of infinite variety. Barbara has just been named CEO of Medusa - a huge company run by her father Damian. We then go on an endless introduction of who everyone in the family is and their position in the company. That should have been spread out to allow the viewer time to assimilate the information. Barbara decides to go for a boat ride alone so as she can lie on the boat and well - make herself happy. BOOM - boat blows up and Barbara is in the water being attacked by two guys - no explanation how they appeared out of the blue. They cut off her finger - that is the end of that - it never tells you why. Back home policeman Danger is put on the case but soon taken off it as somebody doesn't want it solved.

Needless to say he and Barbara soon become lovers. Her husband Esteban told him to watch her - they have been in an open marriage for years so he should have known better. Her brother Cristian is now CEO. Pretty soon the gay element arrives and continues in the form of male and female participants. It seems Barbara was rescued by the leader of an Amazon tribe who cultivated a magic mushroom which Barbara uses throughout - Barbara was in love with her but has forgotten everything that happened before the accident. The story continues with her investigating her family and finding out all their secrets - sexual of course. This series would have stretched to two episodes if all the sex scenes were deleted. To add insult to injury the acting was pretty awful too. It takes all twelve episodes to unmask the killer when it was pretty obvious from the beginning whom it was.

Not recommended.

To be honest I started this series being excited, as I've never seen something like this particular plot, but as the plot was unfolding, I realised I was forcing myself to watch it. Although I love mystery, suspense and crime, the series became tiring to watch. The endless sex scenes were not adding to the show, the unlikable characters were making it hard to enjoy and the end was unnecessary confusing. I think that 1 season might be enough, and a closure should have been given. I even considered some scenes cringe as well. I would say that this series had potential, but ultimately left me disappointed.

If you enjoy series focussing on seriously dysfunctional families as the members tear each other to pieces, this film is for you. Inevitably, the family is stinking rich with the consequence that everyone is jockeying for positions of power and influence, and of course have absolutely no moral values, although in true soap opera style some do try for redemption by the end of the series. The series was longer than it strictly needed to be, with many convoluted plot twists and turns, but for sheer entertainment value I found it very watchable. Unbelievable - certainly. Engaging - most definitely.
