Because Telenovelas are hell... Ignoring how overwritten the maincharacter is and how beautiful she is, what was with the gay storyline 😂 it was like different storyline everytime they showed up, did the writers see that?

They argued and were ok in the morning then he found drugs and he broke it off then said the other güy broke it off. What?

Lets not forget how no one really got what they deserved. Then the random neighbors who have nothing to build to the plotline 😂😂 and the nonsense grandson? A 5 star seems too kind or too harsh, but the main character is FOINE, and the casting is fine i guess.

I was interested in seeing this only after the trailer played automatically on Netflix. I went in thinking it was a film rather than a series. Carolina and Rodolfo both gave solid performances. This is in part because of adequate character development. The fact that these actors look like Greek Gods is algae dropping to the audience. You keep questioning, "How can anyone be that beautiful? This is followed by jealousy and lingering insecurity.

The writers failed other actors, it would have made for a more invested audience had they given more development to the other actors. Some performances were very tele-nova (Angelina.) We could have used a lot less of her! After tolerating a few minutes of this, the viewer is tempted to ditch the show...however they bounce back to one of the solid performances and it keeps you engaged.

I wanted to race to the end to see how it all played out. Every episode builds anticipation that then ebbs and flows. I found myself wanting more clues. The build up ends with disappointment. I'm not sure where I thought it was heading but found myself regretful having spent 10 hours watching.

It was obvious the creator spent money on this production. The scenery was breathtaking. However, the audience is quickly sucked away from imagery, bc every person's ringtone was phenomenally annoying, constantly disrupting the flow of the show and distracting the viewer. The soundtrack was lacking. They kept going back to a particularly irritating song, each time the main character is dancing. Between that and the ringtone...I had to mute and/or fast-forward content. Had they been more mindful with the music, it could have profoundly supported the relationships that seemed genuine.

I think the writers and directors relied too heavily on lengthy sex scenes, it detracted from the show.

This was particularly evident in the brother's relationships. The plot insinuated that men immediately have sex-avoiding true intimacy.

With as much sexual content, there was no feeling of angst and longing between characters-which would have helped with plot and character development. Everybody just jumped straight to bed!

Early on, I really wanted the main character to develop feelings for her pretend husband. It would have greatly enhanced their chemistry, making the main character feel torn, rather than simply pining for one person and seeking revenge. The conclusion of this thought is only unveiled in the last few minutes of the finale, leaving me pretty disappointed. The main character never vocalized her end game, her goals. The viewer just bounces between characters, desperate to tie all sun-plots together somehow.

I gave a 6 because I had been excited and invested in the first 4 episodes. The creators really could have limited this to 6 episodes.

The story is simple. I will give you that but so are the multiple movies we've seen since the 60s both in cinema and television. Something they did well was to rely on Carolina Miranda's most iconic role on "Who killed Sara?" in which she played a supporting character that helped her rise to fame, and be known internationally due to the show's success. She does the exact same thing here. She elegantly carries the story forward as the main character facing an unimaginable fate. It is emotional, thought-provoking, and allows you to stay well put as you admire a plot written for fans who thoroughly enjoys thrillers with a twist. It is yet to be determined how it will all end. I am only on episode 6 that I am watching at this very moment. It has as of writing this an unforgettable soundtrack, a scenery that only those who appreciate cinematography will enjoy, and a poetic vibe that fills the room. I will give it a fair 6.8 out of 10. Colombia have produced yet another decent show following many if their recent successes. We may have here yet another great source for international productions that one could compare to what was and is made in America.

I think that what they spent on locations they saved on hiring proper writers. The scenery is breathtaking but that is all there is. The original plot is interesting and enticing. However, they spend too much time on parties and sex scenes and then seem to run out of time to unravel everything. The last episode is like an editing disaster. The acting is atrocious, except maybe for the actress playing the wife and the young gigolo waiter. All others are like glossy cardbord figurines. Very beautiful indeed but as shallow and unbelievable as they can be. However, I doubt even good actors could have done much better with such abismal writing. The final scene is a complete joke and if it is the prelude to a second season, we have to expect comedy.

The writing is terrible. The acting is mediocre. The voiceovers are subpar. It's a glorified soap opera. But even with all that, it was ridiculously over the top and entertaining enough to at least have on in the background while I'm doing other stuff, and...I somehow finished the season. That's gotta be worth four stars at least, right?

On the positive side, it looks beautiful at least. It's very colorful, and the premise is somewhat intriguing.

If you want cheap, pulpy entertainment to have on while you're folding laundry or some other chore, this isn't a bad option. Just don't watch it expecting more!
