The story was interesting but the acting/dialogue needed much improvement. The main male character was a hunk!! He and the rest of the awesome scenery made the view worthwhile otherwise I probably wouldn't have persevered through the entire series.

There were a few "mysteries" in the story although they could have been developed a little further and most of them were eventually resolved.

Of course there had to be the token LBGQ+ sub story thrown in there which seems to almost a "requirement" these days. I guess it added a little to the story but I don't believe that it added much of any to the plot.

I did enjoy the way the story ended.

"Deceitful Love" was exactly what I needed-a well-timed guilty pleasure that let me escape from reality for a while. The story centers on Gabriella, a sophisticated hotel owner, who finds herself unexpectedly falling for Elia, a young and mysterious stranger. The age difference added a layer of complexity and tension to their romance, which I found fun to watch.

Giacomo Gianniotti, who plays Elia, absolutely captivated me. He is not just beautiful, but has this magnetic presence that pulls you into every scene. His chemistry with Monica Guerritore (Gabriella) was electric, and their love story, with all its ups and downs, felt intense, passionate, and sometimes a little dangerous.

Sure, some parts of the show felt over-the-top, but that's what made it such a fun ride. "Deceitful Love" doesn't aim to be perfect-it's here to entertain, and it does so in spades. The beautiful Amalfi Coast setting, the tangled relationships, and the unpredictable twists kept me hooked from start to finish.

If you're looking for a dramatic, sexy escape that doesn't take itself too seriously, "Deceitful Love" is definitely worth a watch.

A good love story. Attractive characters, A beautiful setting. And it's A film that gives tribute to older women. It shows that older women can be beautiful, loved, sexy and powerful. Of all the beautiful Italian women in this film, Gabriella (Monica Guerritore) was the most attractive. Her lover, Elia, (Giacomo Gianniotti) was the extremely imperfect hero, who was challenged with too many contrived complex conflicts forcing Gabriella into too many forgivings. But with patience, one managed to enjoy a truly good film.

And maybe it is my American nature, but I waiting for someone to get shot. Maybe by the loan sharks, a stalker, a resentful lover, a gay lover. But thankfully this film did not need a shoot em up to be entertaining, just some good, soft sex scenes. Thank you Italy.

This is a soap, and not a good one. The plot is thin, there are no likable characters, and the romance is flat.

First off, the writers attempt to be clever by drumming up questionable scenarios/actions to cast doubt on the hero. All it did was make him look suspect and not worthy of the heroine. And made the heroine look stupid and thirsty.

Second, there are no likable characters, well maybe the hero, who is undoubtedly shady but falls for his mark. The heroine is so up and down there is no way in real life a man in his right mind would put up with her violent outbursts, fueled by low self esteem, then crawling back for forgiveness.

Why did they fall in love again?

Third, there isn't any romance. There's tons of steam but we really don't get to see why they fell in love. It's just an annoying loop of them in bed, her kicking him out, followed by her groveling for him to come back.

Does he like youthfulness? Does he admire her for her business acumen?

Does he like it when she cooks for him? Does she like his ability to live in the moment? Does she love the fact he wants to spend time with her?

We don't know because we don't see any of that.

I read the reviews prior to writing mine. I think i understand why the low reviews but from my behalf I think this is a worth watching mini series. Let's start from the obvious the music and the cinematography- views and overall production is really good. The plot makes you think how easy it is to lose yourself in the "norms" either of society or of the family and its dynamics and while living to conform and satisfy these life passes by and you lose yourself and don't live. By choosing the character a women's in her 60s that gets stronger by the episode the main connotations and concept is well projected in a gradual way that is built up episode by episode. All in all it's worth watching this series.
