Corazón salvaje

Televisa could have done better with this one, unfortunately, 2009 version of Corazón Salvaje is very poor. The hero and the heroine have been miscast, Eduardo Yañez can not give depth to his Juan del Diablo, hair extensions do not make a character and Aracely Arambula seems lost, although she is better as Aimée than as Regina. As regards the rest of the cast: too much anger, shouting and promises of revenge, only Helena Rojo is memorable. The script mixes two different novels by Caridad Bravo Adams, they work fine on their own but together the adaptation seems rushed, there are inconsistencies in the actions of the characters and unnecessary twists; the dialogs seem to have been taken from some old soap opera, sound silly and forced. I don't know why they kept the name Corazón Salvaje, this is not that wonderful story. Version of 1966 and of course the incredible one of 1993 are much, much better.
