Possessions

Saw rwo episodes through Filmin. It's not dubbed and it has subtitles in Portuguese. I m really looking forward to watching other episodes. The French bride is brilliant. I also like the profile of the police and consul representative. For me it's 7 stars.

If dubbing spoils your viewing then take a subtitled option. If something is any good you soon forget whether you've been reading and it comes naturally.

I actually watched the whole thing. I won't add any spoilers. The first episode is the best and gets you hooked. The story is interesting, and each episode takes you in a different direction. I enjoyed seeing something modern from a different culture yet mixed with folklore. The characters are intriguing but unfortunately the acting is lost with the hideous audio issues. Had the dubbing/subtitles been even ok I think this would be an excellent series. Strangely only the French is dubbed in English and all other languages have no subtitles. I struggled at first until I turned the closed captioning on. Which unfortunately becomes distracting as the voiceovers are terrible. I wish it had either been dubbed better with all the languages or just had subtitles. The voiceovers are lackluster and as if it's just being read with no inflection. I'm sure the actors were probably much better in the real languages. This makes it a struggle to keep yourself immersed in the story. If you can get through these terrible mistakes the series is worth watching as it's only six episodes. I would love to see more content like this in the future but done well. HBOs series The Investigation is a great example. I wish this had been done as well as that.

Just finished it (see earlier review) I really loved it. I don't want to give spoilers. The folklore theme was very enjoyable. Get past the lousy dubbing, turn on the subtitles and watch this. Outstanding performances by the whole cast.

4 star rating is generous. 8 star acting but the story line (which I mistakenly thought was cultural-gone-awry) devolved after episode 2. Dubbing is impossible to read as it is yellow, tiny, and thin modern font. Dubbing randomly worked and not at all during last episode.
