Boring, unengaging and predictable.
William Levy is a wanna-be James Bond whose acting skills are nowhere up to par with the actors in those movies. His acting is very dull, robotic and to top it off he has not learned how to properly enunciate after twenty years of career. Just because he appears shirtless any chance he has does not make this series any better. On top of all, Esmeralda Pimentel and William have very little chemistry.
The poor dialogues, bad action scenes and vulgar sex scenes end up making this a series that is just not worth recommending. It underdelivers as a thriller and as an action series. Hard to understand how you can mess up a classic such as The Count of Montecristo, but this "modern" series misshandled the core of the story quite badly and tried to compensate with by using William's body as bait. In conclusion, a flop.
