Tu ferais pareil

A relentless, repetitive, nonstop synth track is your first clue that an unsuccessful cover-up of cliché trivial, crap-writing is happening. I despise a pushy soundtrack, dictating how you are supposed to feel instead of evocative storytelling. Over-scoring is a cop-out.

Passé handheld camera work, fast, flashy editing is your next clue that the writers are floundering in their intent: is the protagonist a superhero, a magical man, a misunderstood hero, a vigilante, a victim?

Who knows? I certainly never will. It wasn't interesting enough to finish.

All that's missing is good content- writing, storyline, continuity, a direction. Put this series on in the background to get your cooking and housework done.

It's a waste of hours I'll never get back.

What a great show! The episodes are short and action-packed, with at least one or two out-of-the-blue twists every episode to keep you riveted to the screen. If someone told me they always knew what was coming, I would be very skeptical, because I found the plot-line to be very intricate and unpredictable.

I watched the original Spanish version with English subtitles, which is my preferred way to view all non-English series. The dialogue does move along pretty fast, especially in the last few episodes, but I don't feel like I missed any of the on-screen action.

If you like shows about morality, vigilantism, justice and corruption, I'd highly recommend this series. It's super enjoyable from start to finish.

I just watched the first two episodes, and the story looks good and feels realistic. The witness characters are all interesting, and it was thrilling to watch. I even re-watched some scenes from the first episode to guess what might have happened. I'm glad the episodes are under 30 minutes, as most shows nowadays are over 40. Since all scenes so far are set at night, the show has a darker vibe. The detectives' love story is okay for now; I hope it leads to something in the coming episodes.

I'm excited to watch the remaining episodes and hope there's enough content for all eight. I'll update my review once I finish the series.

For now, I'd rate it 3.5/5. It all depends on how they end it and whether it feels logical and satisfying.

A robbery takes place on an airport coach and goes wrong. Or did it? That's the dilemma soon-to be-ex husband and wife detectives Fran Garza and Rebecca Quirós have to solve. Fortunately, this is a puzzle that the viewer has to decipher without the extra baggage of irrelevant background stories of the protagonists. We just get some back story as facts and aren't swamped in it. The meat is in the solving of the crime.

Slowly, in twenty-five minute episodes, the two cops get to the bottom of things. On the way there, three different explanations for the botched crime emerge.

This is in no way a profound series, but it does discuss on a superficial level the ethics of vigilantism. And it shines a spotlight on Spain's "popular jury" system in a critical way.

I watched this over two evenings and would love to see a similarly fast-paced Season Two emerge. Perhaps next year.

Absolutely the best series I have watched on Apple+ whilst waiting on Season 5 of the magnificent SLOW HORSES . Spanish language with English Subs but I think you have other options available . Personally I cannot stand the dubbing on these non English offerings , many of which are much more inventive , original and interesting than the tedium of the derivative rehashing of the same tired storyline in our British and USA shows . I am deliberately avoiding giving away too much of this crime show as I would prefer you watch it yourselves and enjoy it as much as I did . The one clue I WILL give , is that I hope that I never get arrested in Spain . PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let there be a second season as great as the first and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE watch the original before the UK or USA plagarise it with an inferior English spoken version like The Bridge and so many other foreign gems .
