Critica sin filtro

I gave it a 1 because the 10s are just as exaggerated. Someone has to balance the scale

A show is rated for what’s on screen, not for how much “effort” it cost to make it. I rated based on the first 7 episodes I actually watched, and that’s what the drama delivered. If later it gets better, fine — but until then, my score stays

So basically, the first 4 days are tutorials and the 5th is the actual game. Thanks for proving my argument.

I get your point, but here’s the thing: if the loops themselves keep changing (different outcomes, different accidents, different antagonist moves), then the clues from loop 1–4 don’t build a stable investigation — they dissolve. That’s why I argue the tension isn’t in the “process,” it’s in waiting for loop 5, because only then the pieces stop shifting and the result actually matters.

Other loop stories (Edge of Tomorrow, Groundhog Day) keep consistent rules so each cycle builds tension. Mobius makes its own choice: it resets the board each time, so yes, it feels like filler until the final loop. That’s not me making day 5 “magical,” that’s the show itself putting all the weight there.

Time loops don’t exist in real life, so there aren’t fixed physical rules. It all depends on how the writer chooses to build them. That’s why the internal logic matters — if the script decides tension only happens on day 5, then the other loops feel like filler. In other shows (Edge of Tomorrow, Russian Doll), each cycle has meaning because the writers made it so. That’s the difference I’m pointing out.

I get that, but the problem with Mobius is how it handles that process. In stronger time-loop stories, each cycle feels essential because the knowledge gained is concrete and builds momentum. Here, the information keeps shifting, sometimes even contradicting itself, and with another “player” interfering, most of those clues risk being fake.

If the 5th loop is the only one that really matters, then the previous 4 lose weight fast. Instead of building suspense, they just stretch out the inevitable. That’s why for me, it doesn’t feel like tension—it feels like stalling.

The 2nd and 3rd loops already proved they’re not the same. So how can the detective “put the puzzle together” if the pieces keep changing each time? And with a second player who also knows about the loops, it’s very possible he’s deliberately feeding fake pieces—making everything in the first 4 loops irrelevant. Real tension only kicks in on the 5th loop, when the detective realizes he’s been solving the wrong puzzle all along.

Then there’s the supposed romance. Whatever happens, it’s pointless—it’s basically 50 First Dates.

The show itself makes it clear the real resolution only happens on day 5. If the previous loops don’t carry real tension—because death doesn’t matter and outcomes can always be reset—then the so-called “investigation” feels more like stretching time than building suspense. That’s why I called it waiting around.

A time-loop can work if each cycle raises the stakes (Edge of Tomorrow is a great example). But here, the stakes keep vanishing until the final loop. That’s not puzzle-building, that’s narrative padding.

What does this drama have to do with Dark? It is fragmented from the start: first they show the consequences, and then the whole story is just trying to explain the causes — which, by the way, are not even that clear. Their so-called enmity comes almost from silly reasons.

And if you really think they are ‘friends,’ then I guess you also believe Batman and the Joker are compadres.
