Accidente

There is no way this series is less than a 6 in rate.

1. The Plot is great, although it has a lot of things of Mexican novelas, I think that making a series about a simple mistake that could've been avoided is interesting.

2. Everything that happens because of unawareness and how families react is worth watching.

3. The series display deep family issues, toxic patterns, cowardice, ambition, negligence and injustice.

4. This series is not racist, do not believe in the reviews that are saying this. It's way the opposite.

5. Awesome actors

What I did not like: 1. The overreaction of some characters 2. That it was a series instead of a movie: because it had to be overwritten to make it interesting. I don't know how it will go with a second season.

With tinges of overacting, I still recommend watching the ACCIDENT. Everyone is flawed as everyone is affected. There are villains a plenty, with great acting by the main villain Charro. I particularly enjoyed the constant interplay of different storylines by the main couples. Yes, you could have omitted the three sex scenes, added nothing. But that's just me.

I found the dialogue believable and well written. Many modern themes are delineated with nuance: materialism, avarice, infidelity, drug use, parental abuse and neglect, classicism. The city of Santa Cruz and the surrounding area make a beautiful backdrop to all the action.

If you're looking for something to pass the time, this show might be it. Be aware that there's a lot of violence and a lot of unanswered questions at the end. Could have l been so much better because the starting point (the accident and how it destroys those families lives) is increadible material to work with. The non sensical violence and the fact that not everything ties up at the end ended up being a real disappointment for me. I'm not sure I would recommend this show unless you like violence in tv shows. Also, is this really how Mexico works? Things are solved by the "law of the people". Hope not.

I'm not a fan of Netflix Latinoamérica productions because they always end up disappointing me, and this was no exception. I'm Colombian and since this show happens to have in its cast, 2 Colombian actors that I used to love as a teenager, I decided to check it and I regret every minute of it. Even though my expectations couldn't have possibly been lower, this show still found a way to make me feel disappointed and embarrassed about the quality of Latinamerican shows. This was bad in ways i didn't know it could be bad.

What started as and what I thought was gonna be an adult drama, gets so stretched and confusing and convoluted that it very quickly turns into a poorly made telenovela, but also a bad action series and also a basic teenage drama with teenage characters and teenager music. This was the definition of "everything, everywhere (and everyone) all at once". It was everyone against everyone, going from 0 to 100 every other minute, for no absolutely no reason. There's too many storylines that get intertwined but in the most forced and unrealistic ways possible. Nothing felt natural, nothing felt believable. It felt like every episode was written by a big group of complete strangers who were brainstorming, and then each episode got directed by an entirely different group of other strangers who kept brainstorming some more. The acting is bad, the writing is atrocious, the music is absolutely awful and the editing is diabolical.

Many lines delivered by various characters in what were supposed to be tense moments, ended up genuinely making me crack up in laughter or making me cringe so bad that I literally covered my face. The use of music was excessive in every scene, there were very few seconds of silence in each episode and the genre and song choices always felt wrong, awkward and cringey. But the editing, that was definitely the worst part of this experience. It felt like it was edited by 20 different people who never actually met, discussed or communicated with each other at all. Entire scenes and potential dramatic moments got cut very abruptly and followed by scenes that completely killed the vibe or they would use a lot of "gossip girl" kinda music on scenes that were supposed to be serious and tense.

This could and should have been maximum 6 episodes long, but for reasons beyond my comprehension, it's 10. There were 3 performances though, that stood out in a positive way for me, specially the 2 protagonists and another female character from the supporting cast. They were not consistently amazing, but they did deliver several dramatic moments that felt genuine and believable . But aside from that, everything else was absolutely horrible. I do not recommend it and if anyone is reading this, please trust me, do not waste hours of your life watching this catastrophe.

I thought the plot was intriguing, layers of drama involving greed, grief, love and betrayal, frienfship, frenemies, tragedy, and forgiveness. Some characters were more complex than others. I thought Charro's wife was weak, but she surprised me. There was never a dull moment, It kept me engaged until the end. Give it a chance, it just may surprise you. And, there were a few episodes that felt soap opera-ish, due to the many layers of drama, but that is what kept me coming back for more. I wanted to see how they handled each emotionally charged situations. I was curious to see how the characters would process the tragedy. Fantastic plot. I Loved it!
