La Petite Fille sous la neige

Watchable and good execution. From the start it maintains the grip and suspense. It could have been a treat to watch if the script was well written with some intense and egde of the seat moments.

The casting needs some brilliant selection of actors.it is not for every kind of audience. Compare to Nordic mystery thrillers it is half baked.these kind of stories need fully engaging without any dull or lag moments in script.but this one has some dull and lag moments. The director's narration should have been better. This web series could have been three to four episodes instead of six episodes.overall watchable one. Go for it.

This is layered. An engrossing story within an immersive story. Milena Smit is quite convincing as the young journalist with a tortured past that she has difficulty overcoming. Veteran actor Jose Coronado is quite likeable as Miren's teacher and confederate. And Aixa Villagran is quite commendable as the tireless, persistent investigator.

The approach of the film to storytelling is engaging even as it jumps from one year to another. The viewer might be wondering whatever happened to Amaya because her screen presence is limited for the most part to the videos Iris sends to Miren 3 years apart. But the patient viewer gets the complete picture in the penultimate episode.

This Spanish production is worth watching. It's bingeable.

As this six part series opens a family; mother, father and five year old Amaya, attend the festival of the Three Wise Men in Malaga in 2010. As her father buys her a balloon little Amaya walks off. She is not seen again. CCTV suggests that a person, or persons, took her. Miren, a trainee journalist working as an intern for a newspaper is keen to cover the story. In 2016 there has been no real progress in the case. Then, on Amaya's twelfth birthday somebody sends a VHS tape to Miren; it shows Amaya alive and well. This reinvigorates the investigation.

I thought this was a gripping series. The opening succeeds in grabbing the viewer's attention the story manages to keep things interesting right up until the end. This conclusion wraps up most retails but leaves just enough questions unanswered to raise the possibility of another season. The investigations carried out by the police and Miren are interesting to watch although it seemed a little odd that one of the most likely motives for kidnapping a young child wasn't even raised for most of the series... perhaps so viewers can feel smug for considering it before it was shown to be the motive. The mystery doesn't last the whole series; episode five shows us just what happened before the finale wraps things up. I quite liked this. The characters were interesting with the cast doing a solid job throughout. Overall a solid series that doesn't overstay its welcome; six episodes was just the right length.

These comments are based on watching the series in Spanish with English subtitles.

What more can I say?, if not that this story is as beautifully told as a fine aging wine. From the very first episode, it grips you tight and continues to grow in beauty all the way to the end. It is about determination and not giving up, the tale of how the love of a parent combined with a professional's sens of duty can accomplish big things. I couldn't stop quite honestly, binged it with a few breaks here and there and did not even see the time go by. This is something that I would recommend to anybody who enjoys a good thriller mystery to watch over the weekend. Make yourself a good meal, get some snacks, and drinks, invite a few friends and simple watch this!

Snow Girl is about a child kidnapping case that spans a number of years. Caught up are the parents, the police, the kidnappers, and a journalist obsessed with the case.

What we have is a great, moody character-driven series. The actors do a great job showing how everyone around the case gets affected. That part of the slow burn is great.

Unfortunately, the plot and the mystery almost never progresses. And it's even more absurd that the time period spans 9 years. Everyone is so intense about the case, but what is happening these 9 years? The sad answer is nothing. We don't really witness any transformation within the characters over these 9 years. It's as if they're stuck in the depression all this time. The biggest transformation should be the kidnapped girl, but we don't even see how the transformation takes place, just that it did... 6 years later.

So it's well-acted... but missing a lot of plot devices that could've made Snow Girl a whole lot more exciting as a crime series.
