Absurb script and good performance
ileanamargarita1915 December 2018
The script is absurb; it does not make sense. The main actors are really good. The scenario is really nice. I like it

This is one of my most favorite series. Angelique Boyer is one of the best actresses and this is another one of her soap opera series, even made in 2012 it is worth watching!

Even though there are about 150 episodes each on of its episodes has good acting, all the characters display great acting. Each episode is worth watching and you'll always want to find out what comes after each episode: Since the first episode I was hooked and couldn't stop watching! It will definitely take some time, I would recommend watching this if you have nothing else to watch or if you just want some time to pass.

I really don't know where to start this review. Honestly, I don't. I find that this 'telenovela' has effortlessly reached a new depth of stupidity. From the writing of the script to acting/directing, it amazes me how low the level of the series is. Let's start with the acting, shall we? Or better: lack of. Most actors don't have a clue what they have to do, so they overcompensate in big gestures and rolling eyes; Rene Casados' acting as a priest (honestly, who did the casting?) is embarrassing to watch and he is wearing so much make-up that he could work in the circus as a clown. A very brown clown. Sabine Moussier is, well, Sabine Moussier. Over the top. With everything. Pleasant exception is Mark Thatcher (what's in a name?) whose acting is nice to watch although even he can't escape the lack of direction from both directors. Directors Sergio & Claudio seem to be interested in making pretty pictures and find the cast an annoying interruption of their shots.

The costume designers must have had a ball: all muscular guys wear shirts that are two sizes too small and unbuttoned down to their navel, and to complement the ensemble they're wearing tight trousers. Too tight. For the ladies: tight blouses with mega cleavage, short skirts/tight trousers.

For the dialogues... I've never heard dialogues switch from completely normal to the level of a maximum security mental institution so fast. Within a few words, there are arguments and accusations, there is screaming and confrontation. Example? Well, if you insist:

She: (in normal tone of voice) Where have you been?

He: (normal too) Oh, just been for a walk.

She: (starts normal) At this hour? (voice is getting hysterical) Where did you go WHERE, WHERE?! (screaming) YOU WERE SEEING HER, WEREN'T YOU?

HE: No, I didn't

SHE: (normal voice again) Oh, I thought you did.

He: No.

She: Oh.

He: Goodnight

She: Goodnight

Well, why do I watch it, you may wonder? That's because my host where I have dinner every evening (I work momentarily in Kenya) is watching this before the evening news. That's why.
