Un passé bien présent

A dreadful mess that does not know what it wants to be, the plot has no structure, the video cam footage is pretentious, hackneyed and unwatchable, the music is massively intrusive.

Dull and uninteresting characters doing dull and uninteresting things for dull and uninteresting reasons.

Reminds me of the I Know What You Did Last Summer film series. But with more thrillers and subplots. The 8 one-hour episodes are way too long. That softens the experience.

They should show this in film schools as an example on how not to make a show.

Arrogant creators having no idea that a show needs an audience to justify its existence.

I like Rosie Perez and she shines in this movie. Once I got used to the time change from "the night" to the present day it became very easy to follow even though I had to read the subtitles.

I enjoyed it so much I binge watched it, often rewinding to catch details and verbiage I missed. Watching the teen "take on the world" ideal versus real adult life was very interesting capturing what happens to your dream life doesn't happen if everything doesn't fall into place.

Don't let the naysayers stop you from watching, form your own opinion. Get past the first few episodes, it takes a bit to get started, but watching the plot and then the added subplots play out is worth the wait.

I wasn't sure at first with it being bilingual but I quickly forgot about it as it drew me in.. its a drama I thought it rather clever and plenty twists and turns too which is why i binged the entire series in one sitting!

I'm not sure about anyone giving this a negative review if they haven't watched all of it.

Its not a highly intellectual piece of television, but what it is however, is a bit of escapism. Something a bit different and I would recommend this highly for that reason!

Take it for what it is folks and get over yourselves!!

What I want to know is... is there a second season?!?!
