What is the story of Medusa ?
Bárbara Hidalgo is the future CEO of Medusa, a powerful group with companies in all areas, from catering to the sport. Alone aboard his yacht, She is the victim of an assassination attempt. Suffering from memory loss, with the help of the Inspector Danger, she will try to find the culprit. He may well hide in his own family. A family where each member has seen power ride him and where everyone has something to hide.
This is the intrigue of the 12 episodes of about 35 minutes that make up the series. Note that it is currently at the heart of a controversy, because the characters would be inspired by an important family from Barranquilla, a place where the story takes place, and a lawyer would have started legal action. Netflix did not react and the actors maintain that all this is only fiction. Of our opinion, if there has been a trial, it should be on the quality of the show.
A series written for and by the ass
Alone on its yacht, Bárbara has flashes of all its beds with various partners, and begins to touch itself before an explosion projects it over board. We were far from imagining that the first minutes of Medusa were going to set the tone for the series as a whole.
With his family plot where everyone tries to get their share of the cake by planting knives in the back, we saw in the show an ersatz of Succession, The HBO flagship series. Less qualitative, certainly, but looking at. And as a common thread, a police intrigue led by an inspector with the name that slams, danger (Manolo Cardona, seen in Who killed Sarah?). In short, when it was necessary to choose which novelty to look at Netflix, it must be admitted that Medusa had at least entertaining arguments. And then 35 minutes, it goes quickly.
So far from us to play modesty for a few scenes from Picoti Picota, quite the contrary, but it seems important to make a differentiation: how to separate the adult film from a Netflix series. In the first, the scenario is only a pretext to bring two, three, or more people to play to Twister without Twister. In the second, normally, it is the opposite, the intimate scene being justified by the story or the construction of the characters. Medusa The appearance of a Netflix series, but the narration of an adult film.
Concretely, every five minutes, a two -back beast sequence will undress the little scenario on the screen. A stripping that history is trying to justify by based all of its intrigue on the layers of each other, of each other. And when there is a hole, Here is the erotic flashes of Bárbara going back to the assembly for the fourth time. Sexuality is so predominant in the show that it quickly becomes ridiculous, as when our dear ” Danger Flirting with the main concerned of his minute 2 investigation, then gets closer to minute 4. We imagined a series not flying high, it was not suspected that it was going to fly horizontal.
An observation that one could have forgiven if, at least, Medusa had done things well at this level. But no. The raw scenes are so wise and so fast that we don’t even have for our money when that’s all that the series seeks to sell us. Especially since the show makes a lot of effort to play the game of the seven differences with more olé olé content with its actors reproducing a bad telenovela. Medusa is thought of as an adult moviewithout the main interest of an adult film. The results were catastrophic, it is also frustrating.
We will end up on a list of things that it is better to do instead of looking Medusa : Empty the washing machine, put your pens to put your pens by color, try to touch your nose with the tip of your tongue, discover that you can multiply the table of 9 with your fingers, mount a piece of furniture, or make love to your partner in order to pay tribute to the series.
