Santo

Show is overstretched to 6 episodes for nothing for a garbage story. There is nothing in it. SKIP IT, DONT WATCH..... the ending is a joke and you will go mad. The story is non-linear, they show past scenes in between so many times and you will assume that something next level is going to come. But nothing good will ever happen, it's just the scenes are repeated. The ending is pathetic and you will feel that you wasted around valuable hours. What kind of heroes are these, clueless and stupid. I mean what were the writers thinking? Write some garbage and people will accept? In the end you will feel that one of the heroes is the most stupid person alive on planet. There is no justice in this story. If you looking for a severly bad show to laugh thinking about the stupidity of netflix and the writers, here we go.

The subject of the series is appealing and the Spanish-Brazilian collaboration full of potential but the series is not worth the time. Very poor direction, with unnecessary jumps from past to present and back, from one location to anotherand back - the movie is a head-scratching mess.

There are a lot of story lines left unaddressed and numerous characters left unexplained.

The acting is decent for how chaotic the characters have been drafted. In general, it feels like the director went for shock and gory instead of dramatic coherence.

Unless you want to waste six hours of your life, don't even start it.

I gave it a shot because not only do I love all the countries it is set in, but the cast is generally speaking great too.

However... what a waste of talented actors. Everyone involved in this project deserved a better story, I'm not even sure how they prepared for their roles because nothing makes sense. It's impossible to follow what's going on. And as much as I love Victoria Guerra, her accent was weak and they could have easily casted a Brazilian actress instead. Unless it turns out in the end that her true nationality all along wasn't Brazilian - I wouldn't know because I just couldn't torture myself to watch the whole thing.

I'm always happy to see Portuguese/Spanish series on Netflix and wish there were more, but they need to amp up the quality and make justice to the talent they hire.

Terribly told story. SKIP.

Very confusing between different time lines. There is not really a story, a bunch of evil cult stuff.

Nothing new but confusing.

It is not clear what is the police doing or whether the police from Spain ans Brazil are working together or not.

The twist at the end was predictable to me. How didn't get the behaviour of the two main police officers.

Do not waste your time, I started watching thinking it is based on a true story but around episode four, realized, it wasn't and made the whole series even worst and worth my time.

I stayed hoping maybe for something original but nothing. SKIP.

I came to the reviews hoping that someone else had made sense of this. But with only three reviews I'm out of luck. I'm halfway through episode 2 and I have no idea what's going on. All I can say is the characters seem interesting, the dubbing is actually very good considering it's Netflix, the atmosphere is consistently drab and unappealing. The story is so convoluted jumping around so much you don't know who's who, who's the good guy, who's the bad guy, why this guy was in the gutter, did they find the boy? But right away I think I know who Santo is, so I'm probably not going to finish watching this. Oh and there's some weird visual effects where it's almost like they tried to do some sort of a Blair Witch fx but different. At first it's interesting but it has no purpose in other words it doesn't come right before something or right after something it's just kind of random. It would be like having a musical crescendo despite that nothing happened.
