Nada

I found this series so curious I kept watching, no idea of where it was headed. Then before I knew it, I was swept into another world with people I cared about.

It ended too soon. I wanted more. Wanted to stay with their company. The lead actor and actress are superb. I loved the food attention. And the foreign setting and customs.

The series is quiet. You lean forward into it to not miss a trick. The main character is so attractive while being innocently cranky. Yes he's preposterous, but completely real and reasonable, to himself. And so to us.

I was completely charmed by De Niro. Never have seen him so honest.

Bravo. More please.

NADA is an absolute masterpiece in its own right. It dares to challenge the conventional by offering something so brilliantly subtle, yet profound. It's not about overwhelming you with excessive features or flamboyance; it's about appreciating the beauty in what isn't there. The experience of NADA leaves you with a deeper sense of clarity, as if you're finally free from the clutter of modern distractions.

In a world of excess, NADA stands tall as a refreshing reminder that sometimes, less truly is more. Perfect for those who seek meaning beyond the noise. Highly recommend for minimalism enthusiasts and anyone needing a break from the chaos.

I had no idea what to expect when watching this short (5 episodes) series. The plot is unsurprising but solid, the acting is excellent, and the cinematography is superb. I have never been to Buenos Aires, but I honestly wonder whether the tourist board has contributed to the financing of this project, because now I want to go there.

Lots of luscious Argentinian food is shown and talked about. The characters are fun, and the conclusion is surprising but good. I strongly recommend watching this in Spanish, with subtitles if you don't speak Spanish (I don't) -- the music of the language is a big part of the charm.

What I appreciated the most is the tempo -- it's slow. I can't stand current movies with their dizzying action sequences and their seizure-inducing flashes and explosions. This is a series that takes its time to tell its story, and it tells it in a lovely and loving manner.

Probably the best Argentine mini-series ever. And I am not exaggerating. Extremely touching while still being funny, with a very simple story behind it, but extremely sophisticated. I am not surprised that the same people responsible for El Encargado, another wonderful series from the same country, are behind it.

The cast is led by an exceptionally talented veteran Argentine actor, Luis Brandoni, accompanied by a Paraguayan newcomer who brings just the right balance to the story. Not to mention, of course, the special participation of none other than Robert De Niro, in one of the most tender roles of his career. It is already rare to see an actor of his stature doing television, but to do it with total dedication, in a distant country and with the certainty of giving the best of himself.

Be sure to watch it.

I am not a fan of "Curb your exuberance" . In fact I despise it. But this Argentinian show is very engrossing.

The scenery makes Buenos Aires feel like Paris of the seventies. Brandini, as a food critic who cannot get the motivation to finish a book he has received an advance on, is brilliant. DeNiro has cameo roles explaining, in English, some cultural terms. He does it in a simple, face to camera style. Lovely.

The acting is convincing and has a scent of Aldomavar about it. Like Bon-Bon El Perro. Gentle pace. Realistic feel.

The idea that over forty years, the house keeper had created a manual of cooking, cleaning and recipes was so sweet. The deceased voice reads the contents as Brandini tries to follow.
