El cuerpo en llamas

This production jumps all over the place too much. I have to keep pausing to figure out who she is with and where in the storyline it might be. I usually enjoy the Mexican and Spanish productions as they are so different from American film. I realize it's based on a true story but there could be an easier way to tell it like maybe adding years or dates as sub titles to it. Some of the characters aren't that camera friendly either. If you want a long lasting series try Malverdere. That keeps you on your toes. I am running out of things to say about this particular production so over and out. Don't know if I would recommend it.

If you know the details of the story, it's just not very entertaining. Perhaps because I just watched the documentary series, that this dramatic retelling feels redundant. With nothing especially gripping about either the story telling, the acting, or the level of suspense, I got bored with it quickly. It seemed to drag on and on. They could have done this in a 90 minute movie.

This is an interesting case, and the documentary series is very good, I highly recommend it. I probably would have liked this dramatic series more if I hadn't known the details of the case going into it. Instead, I wanted it to be over after about 3 episodes, just to get to the end.

... Ursula Corbero a-real-deal-star ... acts the hell out of this very-well-done-production.. impossible taking eyes off her when she's onscreen, dominates every scene she's in... entire cast is truly exceptional.. this one of the finest productions not just from Spain, but from world-over

... when portraying a character that's a horrible individual, doing it as well as Corbero does, it's a testament to her consummate abilities as a really-great-actor... Netflix has a huge winner here, one of the finest on its current roster, it should remain on top for quite some time, and will be hard matching.. bravo-Netflix

... 6h 43min... give yourself time,.. you'll be hard pressed to stop watching straight through.

I didn't know that this was based a real case before I started to watch it. Approached as pure drama it is a magnificent piece of work. Very well written - the twists and turns of the story unfold gradually as the viewer is taken through the facts and fictions of the case, and perceptions of the characters change as their actual actions are revealed. The acting is very good too. The two leads - both sultry, hot and erotic - add some sexual charge to the drama, which underlies the entire case: Two people who find it difficult to keep their hands off each other. How close this is to the actual case, I do not know. But as drama it worked very well indeed.

This show is based on the true story of Rosa Peral, a member of the Barcelona police department, which was sentenced of 25 years in prison after the burnt body of her lover was found inside of his car.

The show compile a lot of the original facts from the case but also uses the drama to add a lot of what was the scandal back then when the case burst in social media. They used this show to reconstruct, of course with a lot of modification of some facts, how the inspectors came up with a story, a plan, to get her and her other lover (Albert Lopez) arrested for the crime.

I believe the show is worth to watch, very well produced, the music, the actors represente a superb role, specially Ursula Corberó who interpreted Rosa, and overall, makes you think and feel the intention of the show.
