Saint Review: Raúl Arévalo and Bruno Gagliasso in an Action Packed Thriller With Hints of Horror
The Spanish-Brazilian crime drama series Santo will be available on Netflix on September 16, 2022. Carlos López is producing the show, and Vicente Amorim is directing. It was the first Spanish film shot in both Spain and Brazil. It was produced by Nostromo Pictures. There are 6 episodes in total, and each one lasts between 43 and 50 minutes.
The cast of the series includes Bruno Gagliasso as Cardona, Raúl Arévalo as Millán, Victória Guerra as Bárbara, Greta Fernández as Susi, Maarten Dannenberg as Olin Hansen, Luiz Felipe Lucas, Iñaki Mur as Guillermo Alonso, Núria Prims, Judith Fernández and María Vádez as Arantxa.
The following is how Netflix describes the show:
Two police officers on opposite sides of the Atlantic are searching for a dangerous international drug dealer whose face has never been seen.
Examining the Saint gives nothing.
It’s a thriller show with elements of the occult that sometimes feels like horror. It tells the story of Santo, who is the world’s most wanted drug dealer, but whose face has yet to be seen. Cardona and Millán, two policemen who are chasing him, initially disagree with each other. But if they want to solve the case and stay alive, they have to learn to work together and understand each other.
At the beginning of the series, there is a note saying that the police have been looking for a drug lord for a long time who also performs bloodthirsty rituals, but no one knows who that person is or the leader of the cult. And the episode begins with a violent scene: two masked bikers shoot a man in a car. They then took her son from the back seat and set the car on fire.
Here, we met Millán, our first major commanding officer. He is a relative of the person who burned to ashes. But the man is a drug dealer, which shows that Millán is not a law-abiding police inspector like most. Instead, he is a crook. At the same time, the headless body of a child without a brain was found in the sea in Salvador, Brazil.
This is said to be a typical sign of Santo’s work, prompting federal officer Ernesto Cardona to join “Santo’s” gang. The fact that this bad guy has a lot of power makes this mission difficult. Knowing that he might be next to her, but he doesn’t know who, gives him an instinctive fear that danger is always there.
But the secret mission goes wrong because his cover is blown. Months later, we find Cardona nearly dead in an abandoned factory in Spain. His eyelids were cut off, and he didn’t know what had happened to him. When he was last seen, he was with Barbara, said to be the lover of an unseen crime boss. This makes it harder to predict what might have happened to them.
The series manages to keep the mystery about the unseen crime boss until the very end. The bloody rituals of a satanic cult add horror and fear to the story, which is otherwise a typical police crime-solving show.
The story is also about getting back together with someone. Everyone in the story has a backstory, and everyone has their own reasons for doing their jobs and chasing down a dangerous criminal. With several experienced actors working on the project, the acting and cinematography are both on par.
Summary: Saint
The series is full of action and suspense, but also has some big problems. Sometimes, flashbacks and time jumps without any labels are hard to follow. But there are only 6 episodes, and if it takes you 3 or 4 episodes to figure out what happened when, it’s a story mistake.
Also, the black fade-out is used too often, ruining the story when other transitions could have been used. Even though Millán and Cardona are clearly the protagonists of the story, the female characters feel like they’re only there to help the leads get ahead. Also, considering how the series ended, they could have done a better job drawing their characters.
When it came to the ending, I was honestly surprised and confused most of the time. I had some hints that ‘it’ character was the unseen criminal, but as the show went on, I couldn’t help but think that was the case. But I was not happy when I found out who it was.
