Watchseries; This is one silly show and not least because it switches between Spanish and English in the same conversation but in mid sentence. Two Spanish brothers, on the other hand, converse in English when alone in a car. Then there is the completely absurd premise, awful writing and some of the acting is incredibly bad. Trash TV with nice locations.

In from the Cold watchseries. Yes, you need to turn off your brain function, but it was definitely fast paced fun! I binged it in one day and enjoyed the silliness. The main actress did a good job. Don't overthink it, just take a ride.

The wooden acting of Kincaid as Becca bring the action and drama To a screeching halt every time she appears on screen. The producers seem to figure this out and have minimized her appearance. The rest of the series is well handled with an obvious twist ending it's an enjoyable weekend bingeing.

People should finish the series before reviewing, let alone rating it 1 star.
This multinational effort is certainly worthwhile and keeps you hooked, once you find your way into the story. I had the time to binge it and it didn't disappoint.
The execution is very stylish and effective, there's a lot of campy comic book stuff though. Some suspension of disbelief is advised.
The only problem I see is the very ending. It leaves so many questions open after the story had just been wrapped up... I hope this will result in a second season which I would certainly watch.
If you're into spy/superhero stuff and/or a fan of the city of Madrid, this is for you.

Obviously people come expecting Jason Bourne, but they get some strange mix of Nikita, Fringe Black Widow and Ghost in The shell ... The show is deliberately trying to be weird or different and there are a lot of genre mixes from drama to sci fi and even comedy, if the show was plain spy action it would win big time, unfortunately it is trying multiple genres at the same time...

It's hard to finish, but with the right attitude towards mediocre TV shows and a steady finger on the fast-forward button, it can be done .
As is the case with almost all Netflix productions, the craftsmanship is good in most departments, except for writing, directing and acting .
You know their motto - 'We almost don't suck' .
One can't make up for a dismal screenplay, an utterly incompetent creative team, and instantly forgettable actors .
Hence a 1/10 , as this thing doesn't deserve to be rated at all .
