Jorge M #52moviesin52weeks #5 #TvSeries #3 #2024 #PeacockTV #DrDeathS2 #DrDeathCutthroatConman ¿De que tratan? La serie en esta segunda temporada nos cuenta la historia del Dr. Paolo Macchiarini, quien revolucionó la medicina la década pasada con el transplante de traqueas, y a quien se le consideraba un rockstar doctor, pero que en realidad era un mitomano, egocentrico y delincuente personaje. La pelicula es un documental sobre el verdadero doctor y sus maldades. ¿Me gustaron? La serie es tremendamente buena, actuaciones sobresalientes, con excepción de la tal Mandy Moore que siempre tiene cara de estar estreñida, y eo documental es corto y conciso, ayudando a que veas lo bien que esta hecha la serie. Ahh, y te das cuenta lo menso que es el gringo promedio, cuando el doctor le dice a la periodista que engaña que los casaria el Papa, que en su boda va a cantar Boccelli y otra sarta de estupideces que tenes que ser mas estúpido aún para creerlas... ¿Recomendables? Si, y para ver primero la serie en maratón para luego ver la pelicula. Entiendo que encontrar Peacock puede ser dificil, con VPN la tengo, pero si se les complica, en apps Sparrow podria estar. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/24 Full Review Aldis H One of the most terrifying things I've ever seen, but it's one case in a long line of insane doctors and other medical professionals who are completely insane, no conscience at all, psychopaths. Watch out for anyone who is overly charming and seems too good to be true. We have instincts to warn us of such things. We actually have a Spidey sense, a measurable reaction to imminent though unrecognized danger, but when the whole world lionizes someone, as was Macchiarini, a lot can slip through the cracks. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/01/24 Full Review Benjamin G Interesting and frightening. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/01/24 Full Review Alvin T Good show, hard to believe people can do what they can in such an advanced age with technology and information.
