Miss Adrenaline: A Tale of Twins (2023– ) User Reviews

Great mix of action, romance and a bit of that telenovela drama but not too much

[drinkshiraz · 10/10 · 18 October 2023]

I really enjoyed this series. I thought the actress playing Romina was cast so perfectly. She was true to her name, pure adrenaline. Energy and eyes that could hypnotize anyone! Like you see in so many telenovelas, some of the cast was a bit over the top but I really enjoyed the portrayals of Ruben, Santiago and Nayibe as well. Having lived many years in some of the worst parts of centro america I thought that much of the series realistically depicted everyday life in the barrios mas pobre de Managua o San Jose. The Story ended when it should have, although it really seemed that they could have changed the ending very easily and made a third season. A little predictable in the ending and I wish they went a different route as to have a third season. Potentially really great story lines that you can imagine as you watch the last several episodes. Not going to post any potential spoilers for anyone that may watch the whole series.

Great mix of action and love. Really great actors.

I loved this TV series. The actors were so good that one would feel is inside La Mirla with the rest of the characters.

I love that this show is always showing the great spirit of people in the more humble barrios of Colombia. Even with Leo who was the bad guy, it showed that there are people with feelings inside hostile enviornments of mafia.

I would say that if you are not used to telenovelas or don't know the dynamics of Latin culture, some scenes may look too dramatic or not realistic. But this is how latinos are, passionate, natural, good people who help each other. I really recommend it, it is not the average telenovela.

Excellent writing and excellent acting!

I enjoyed the series so much that I'm seeking out anything else by these producers! Juanita is just captivating and what talent and endurance to keep up the many facets of her character(s) without losing her creativeness from one phase to the next phase for one minute! But not just the lead - what is so impressive is that even the B and C characters are excellent performers. Kudos to the casting directors and the whole team for allowing the entire cast showcase their skill and contribute their own unique style to overall story. The villain mom gets my vote for best acting - not just here but on anything I've seen in the recent past! Two thumbs up for cast and team!!

Please credit all characters in CAST

Great series, great acting, but IMDB should credit all actors/actresses in CAST. Particularly, "Nayibe", who plays important role throughout series, is not mentioned in CAST. Her name is Alis(s)on (Joan) Castrillon, who also played singer "Margarita" in "Unbroken Voice". I agree with other critics who would have preferred a continuation of the series with more episodes. Zharick Leon does a great job of portraying the DON in her ruthlessness and obsessions, reminiscent of her perfectly played role as Rosario Montes in "Pasion de Gavilanes", both Series 1 (2002) and, (with Camila Rohas as her daughter "Muriel"), in Series 2 (2022). Juanita Molina, David Palacio and Camila Rohas played their roles in exemplary fashion, & hope to see more of them in future Netflix Series.

Disappointed

I watched Romina in a Great role; Queen of Flow

The Sacrifices Romina and Whiz made, the Love and Intimacy they shared; how does the writers create a show, that Disrespected her Sister; Romano lost sight of her true purpose, in living her Sister's life..Santiago saw Romina has A Identical replacement...Alex was too pushy, Whiz and Romina's Passion, the Determination to Love each other and save the Community...hh Season 3 can fix this Mess; Romina's Mother survived and open Laura's Bakery, Romina and Whiz can't forget each other, Virginia seeks revenge, Leo and Marlon works from jail, Sirgio alive?

Infuritating lead character

[micaml · 2/10 · 29 September 2023]

I watched this show to the end, and I don't know why. I just wanted to see how it ended. I skipped many boring scenes. Gosh does this show drag on.

This is filmed in many of the same locations as the show 'The Queen of flow' and features 2 of the actors from that show.

Queen of flow and this show have a lead character with the same goal, revenge but the main character here Romina is annoying, frustrating and immature.

She had no real long term plan for how to deal with the villains who killed her mother and sister. She puts other people's lives at risk and gets people seriously hurt.

I did not like anything about Romina so it spoiled the show.

Whiz, the best character in this show is stuck in a love triangle (or a love square with Romina, Santiago and Alex). It dragged on for multiple episodes.

I don't know why Whiz hangs on to this false hope that he will be with Romina forever, when Alex is so much better for him.

The ending of the show was so pointless. The brothers who terrorised everyone just gave themselves up at the end. The villain Don was pathetic in the end.

Least favourite characters:

Santiago, he was not in love with Romina. He was obsessed with Laura, and Romina just happened to look exactly like her.

Romina

Marlon

Virgina

Favourite characters: Whiz, Alex, Ruben and Guarin.
