The Law of the Jungle Review 2023 Tv Show Series Cast Crew Online
With Perfect Match , Netflix came up with the brilliant idea of taking contestants from different reality shows and throwing them into a new one in which they were supposed to find each other and, ideally, start a relationship. The new show The Law of the Jungle now seems to be doing the opposite: Here new participants are thrown into a kind of conglomerate of other formats. As in Outlast, they are abandoned in the wild (though not in Alaska but in a titular area in Colombia), as in Run for the Money, the prize money can vary throughout the series, as in The Molethe individual candidates can fulfill secret tasks. The pot is initially set at two million pesos – since it is a Mexican production, despite the location, it is Mexican pesos, not Colombian. After all, the profit was originally just under 100,000 euros instead of less than 400.
The rules in The Law of the Jungle, while not overly complicated, are unnecessarily complex. While Dance 100 covered almost every eventuality within the first five minutes and left no questions unanswered, the participants still didn’t fully understand some aspects even halfway through the first episode. That may not be any different for some viewers, but that should have less to do with the intellectual capacity than with the lack of motivation. The law of the jungledoesn’t do so much now to arouse the interest of the potential audience. It seems more like resting on the half-baked concept that is content to be a mixture of many other things, or to add something of its own or otherwise to make the whole greater than the sum of its parts .
The biggest problem with The Law of the Jungleis the pacing. In the third episode, for example, one candidate is “held captive”. In order to free them, the two teams send blindfolded people into a kind of obstacle course, where they each have to collect seven keys. The candidates, deprived neither of their freedom nor of their sight, direct the seekers with instructions. This game isn’t anything special as it is, but seven keys is far too many, and so this segment drags on for far too long without generating any significant highlights that will go down in history as must-watch TV. The fact that the participants mistrust each other more and more due to the secret tasks is at least halfway amusing. In terms of humour, things culminate in one participant revealing to her teammates that 100.
In “The Law of the Jungle” two groups compete in the Colombian jungle to win a cash prize at the end. Or at least individual team members try to squeeze some of the profit into their own pockets. The rules are a bit too complex to summarize in a few sentences, but the reality show’s slow pacing is worse. Beyond that, it makes very little of its underlying concept.
