Some of the most popular movies and shows are the ones that tend to push the limits. You might say they are on the ‘cutting edge’ but there are times when they also go too far.
Netflix is releasing a series that has caused many people to question whether they are going to continue their subscription. Some are even threatening to cancel their subscription because of the television drama that is online now.
This drama started a debate online because it is based on the life of a porn star. Certain scenes in the show are questionable, to say the least, but they even shared some of those scenes on their official Instagram account.
After Netflix shared the shocking scenes on Instagram, they took them down very quickly. After all, they got almost immediate negative feedback and people are still upset about it.
One person was upset because of what they are showing on Netflix and is canceling their account because they don’t want their children to see it. Another fan said that it was inappropriate for Netflix to share something on Instagram because kids are following it.
The comments continue to come in, with some saying that there was no warning on explicit content, they just shared it and people watched without knowing in advance.
The show itself is based on true events, as it is the story of Rocco Siffredi and his rise to fame as one of the greatest porn stars in the world.
According to the Internet movie database, “Siffredi’s family, his origins, his relationship, and the context that led him to embark on his path in p****graphy and accept that the demon in his body is compatible with love.”
It is a seven-part series, Supersex. Alessandro Borghi portrays the porn star, who was in more than 1500 X-rated films during his career.
There were a lot of negative comments associated with the series but some have given positive comments. This includes one critic who works for the Indian Times, who said: “Borghi is endlessly watchable, even when the show threatens to fly off the rails. He gives Siffredi, who could’ve very easily come across as a detestable man, a sense of vulnerability.
“It also helps that the character – at least the version of him created for the show – is always the first to point out his flaws. Self-awareness goes a long way in earning the audience’s sympathies because there is no bigger turn-off than watching a loose cannon fire away, without having any sense of the damage they’re causing.”
