“Supersex” has received praise from critics, earning an 86 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
The series is ‘loosely’ based on the life story of Rocco Siffredi, a legendary p*rn star who made a significant impact on the industry with over 1,300 films to his name, known especially for his ‘godfather of rough sex’ persona.

Nevertheless, the explicit nature of “Supersex” has sparked considerable backlash among Netflix subscribers.
This reaction was especially pronounced following the brief sharing of an X-rated scene from the series on Netflix’s US Instagram account, which was subsequently removed.
Subscribers expressed their outrage in comments captured in screenshots by the Mail Online, with one stating:

Another concerned viewer added, “Isn’t this inappropriate for a platform where KIDS FOLLOW YOU?!”
The criticism didn’t stop there, with another commenter questioning the mainstream acceptance of such explicit content:
“This should be a separate category on Netflix if you want to put stuff like this out.”
“For sure. I never, ever like to tell you one part of me, I always say everything. You either like it or you don’t, this is who I am;”
“I could never be who I am without showing everything about myself.”

He further elaborated on the series’ focus, “The part shown on Netflix, which people don’t know, is the way I grew up, the way my life came up since I was a child.”
“How did I grow up? What were the situations involved in my life? So this is the main Rocco, really, which people don’t know, most people know me just in front of the camera, naked.”
