Historia de un crimen: La búsqueda

I don't understand why they made the tone of the show as a comedy with the acting, background music. Also the screen splitting, what da..is that? Why do you need it when two ppl are in the same room? Didn't make the show look cooler or whatsoever but annoying. The story is interesting. I really want to know what happened to the girl but this show just ruined itself.

This series shows the murder of a 4 years old girl ... with a comedy music in the background !!

This is one example of a new genre of Mexican Telenovelas that tries to leave its "soapy" past behind and focus on taut, suspenseful plots. What better fodder to use than a real life event among wealthy Lebanese Mexican families, where each member has hidden secrets that slowly unfold across the episodes. It's good if you want to keep up with learning Spanish as the audio is surprisingly clear, and the spoken Spanish is quite easily understood. Unfortunately, the story lacks the necessary continuity and is told in a very "choppy" and disjointed manner, where events occur without adequate explanation. This just creates a lot of confusion for the viewer, as though the plot was not a well thought out one.

Structurally speaking is not a mess, and some acting is quite passable albeit there's lots of scenes that remind you of Soap Operas and, not in a good way. To be honest, you can watch it doing chores and for the sake of constructive criticism. But in other cases is just plainly forgetable. This case historically speaking was a smoke bomb to many stuff happening in that political time. In brief words it's just a telenovela glorified with better production values.

Waste of time! Love the based on a true story series but this one is such a disappointment.
