As a television product itself is well done. Filming in the jungle is not an easy task, episodes are way too long though. Directing and acting is not the best but is not awful. Photography and VFX are good but not prosthetics, all guts look fake. Direct sound is deficient, often you can't understand what the actors are saying (even if you are a native Spanish speaker) and as an original idea well, the title of this review says all: we see this before a lot: Sending a platoon on a mission to kill a drug dealer is same old story, to top that the creatures in the caves are pretty much the same as in "The Descent (2005)". . . So, meh! Production Company Rayhuela Films copy themselves, they already made a movie called "El Páramo (2011)", again with a troop of soldiers in the middle of nowhere that find some kind of witch. So double meh!

Unexpectedly, series kept me hooked, binged on it. It's like action, surreal thriller and horror combined into one. Great acting, camera work and amazing Amazonian setting. Loved the pace, never dull, full of good action and suspense. Main actor is an eye candy, so hot! But this season left us with so many puzzles missing! Hope there will be a second one.

Great idea to mix the best from the original Predator (1987) and The Hill Have Eyes (1977), two of my favorites. Also, most of the action remembered me two of the best video games: Call of Duty and Resident Evil. So, overall the result is powerfully visual. Great action survival horror series. Hopefully season 2 will give us more answers.
