The script and idea were promising, with good potential to create a gripping story. However, the poor editing and very bad performances turned it into a confusing and slow series that failed to maintain engagement. The lack of pacing, awkward scene transitions, and uninspired acting made it frustrating to watch. What could have been a compelling thriller ended up feeling disjointed and tedious. The atmosphere and setting had promise, but the execution fell flat, making it difficult to connect with the story or characters. The dialogue felt unnatural, and the tension never fully developed, leaving a disappointing final result.

Don't pay too much attention to the negative comments directed at the main protagonist. In fact, the character's impulsive and misguided decisions are essential to the narrative. They're not flaws in the writing - they're the very foundation of the show's message. These choices drive the plot forward and force the viewer to reflect on the consequences of acting without thinking, of rushing into things with blind conviction. It's through her errors that the story gains emotional depth and tension, ultimately delivering a powerful moral. There's a lot to take away from this show in terms of personal growth, accountability, and the complexity of human behavior.

Aside from those criticisms I've seen, Caught is a visually stunning production. The performances are solid across the board, with the actors bringing a raw authenticity to their roles. The cinematography is beautiful - every shot feels carefully composed, and the natural landscapes are not only scenic but also contribute to the atmosphere of the series. The music, for the most part, complements the mood and tone of the scenes perfectly, adding emotional weight where needed (though I did find one particular scene a bit cliché in its musical choice, but that's a small detail in an otherwise well-curated score).

Overall, Caught is much more than just a mystery or drama - it's a layered exploration of consequences, ethics, and the fine line between truth and manipulation. It may be uncomfortable to watch at times, but that's exactly what makes it worthwhile.

For the people like me who love Spanish thrillers don't listen to the bad reviews!

I don't dissect a film into smithereens, I just go by the emotions and feelings I get out of it.

The acting was excellent, I see no problem with any of the actors , the main character actually reminded me of Ann Bancroft lol, even the same mannerism, RIP Anne.

The landscapes were beautifully filmed.

The plot started out with you thinking , oh I know what's going on, but step by step unravelled. Every time you thought you knew the ending , nope, there comes another twist. I like this kind of narrative very much I guess that's why I gave this film 8 stars.

I can completely and without hesitation recommend this series!

Beautiful landscapes, great cinematography, and strong performances make this series engaging. It's always a pleasure to see Soledad Villamil, and alongside Alberto Ammann, the series boasts a truly great cast. Ammann remains an underrated talent despite his standout role in *Narcos*, he still hasn't gotten the recognition he deserves.

Such a gifted actor!

The story is compelling and keeps you hooked.

However, the naivety of the main character is hard to believe...unless, sadly, this is how many journalists operate today, disregarding consequences.

Overall, it's an interesting series, and for lovers of Argentinian culture, it's an even more appealing watch.

I'll give it a couple of points because Argentina does look quite pretty. I usually give extra points for things like settings and costumes, et cetera those might be the only points it gets.

I haven't read any Harlen Coben in a long time but I used to love his books because he was able to put in a plausible twist at the end which made sense and wasn't a lame cop out. The books were logical and coherent with characters of enough depth that there could be a backstory somewhere to make them a killer. As someone who almost always can guess who done it, it's a refreshing change to have a mystery I can't guess.

This was absolutely stupid. Discount all of the normally stupid stuff which could potentially happen when making a film. It is better than that. But instead they have the main character do something so absolutely incredibly stupid which is a repeat of something incredibly stupid she did before, with very bad consequences. I do so badly want to say what it was, because we are SO ANNOYED at wading through 7 episodes (not the most entertaining series) for this absolutely most implausible & moronic event with only the last episode left.

Unless that plot twist happens, my husband guessed correctly, but no matter who did it, this scene was just idiotic.

I think these reviews are not editable, so I will have to leave you with the visual of my husband saying, "we are not going to watch that last episode now because I am so angry at how utterly ridiculous that was, " standing up, leaving the room. I saw him through the patio doors with garden utensils in hand. He hates gardening & rarely does it. So that is saying something.

End result, there was a twist ending that neither of us predicted. It was plausible, but still stupid. It makes Argentinian women look pretty stupid and/or thoughtless impulsive, tbh. I don't think they are, so either Coben or the movie misjudged.

I'll be interested if anyone says the book is any different or if maybe people don't feel it's as stupid as we do.
