I did not read up on this, as I never do that, so I can be completely in the moment while watching something ... not knowing where this may take me. So when there is the inciting incident in the beginning, I expect the movie to go one direction ... and it surprises me because it skips those beats (it later comes back to certain moments, for story purposes but it almost fast forwards through entire section I was expecting to see more of).
Having said, while the show almost is 8 hours long (8 episodes) and I wouldn't have minded a shorter run time, it never feels like it stretches out or lacks in pacing. The main actor is very well known in Spain and maybe is known to you too if you've seen a few movies from there. He has done incredible work in other movies and is really well cast here. All the actors do their job more than nicely. And while you expect or see certain things at certain moments, there is more to the story than you may think! Very well structured and very well edited to get the maximum effect. With enough shocking moments to keep you going ... and twists - some you may expect, others probably not.
I read an article about Netflix having issues with their original content not being "fresh" anymore ... I think someone needs to do better research when writing articles! Then again click bait always works and writing something bad about a succesful company is always a safe bet - no matter how truthful that ... which brings us back to the show ... and trying to figure out who to believe and where this leads us ... and the characters!
