    Summary

    Reviewers say 'Medusa' offers an intriguing premise with strong performances and fitting casting, yet it is criticized for its inconsistent, predictable storyline and unlikable characters. The series' excessive focus on sex scenes and uneven pacing, with moments that drag and others that rush through details, detract from its potential. Despite some engaging elements, the show fails to deliver a compelling crime mystery, leaving many viewers disappointed.

    No redeeming features

    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.

    Bad series but the Costeño accent is hella fun

    This is a half-baked soap opera with not enough room to fully develop the story and characters, a predictable conclusion and some questionable script choices (e.g. No single redeeming character; maybe because the authors wanted to portray Colombia's elite as selfish and arrogant on purpose?).

    Anyways, we really enjoyed the Costeño accent of the series' characters, which is heavy on profanity and regional slang and suits really funny to the cast of mostly white people that generally look very different from true Costeños (most of the actors are Bogotanos or Paisas).

    This is yet another example as to why you MUST watch all series on the original language!

    My wife is from Cartagena and we enjoyed the series as a challenge of trying to decipher which character had a "true" Costeño accent and who was just forcing it.

    Disappointing

    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.

    Very Disappointing dont waste time

    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.

    Disappointing

    This crime, mystery, and investigation series had the potential to be truly compelling, but unfortunately, it falls short due to poor execution. The premise itself is intriguing, and with the right direction, it could have been an intense and engaging story. However, the creators failed to fully explore its potential, resulting in a show that feels underwhelming and, at times, frustrating.

    One of the biggest missteps is the casting and characterization. The directors made questionable choices for almost every character, making it difficult to connect with them or believe in their roles. Whether it's miscast actors or poorly written character arcs, the result is a lack of depth and authenticity that weakens the story's impact.

    Instead of delivering the gripping suspense and intelligent storytelling expected from a series of this genre, it often falls into clichés and predictable developments. The pacing is inconsistent, with moments that drag unnecessarily and others that rush through important details, leaving key aspects underdeveloped.

    Overall, while the series had all the ingredients to be great, it ultimately misses the mark. It's a disappointing watch for those looking for a well-crafted crime mystery, as it fails to deliver on both character development and narrative depth.
