Montecristo

The TV show differs from the book, and the movies we saw previously. The new story is more adapted to today's world: oppression, lies, corruption, and revenge. William Levy did an outstanding job playing the character. I loved the ending; it is a great message. We need to let go of the past and move forward no matter what.

As for the people complaining about intimacy scenes for the first time, I see those scenes as part of the story. When he was with Mercedes, I didn't see love; I saw anger, and Levy did that well. The other relationships were part of the vendetta plan. Great Job, Willaim Levy.

Umm Mmmmmmmm no no no. I am A big fan of the story, the book and all of them movies that they played in the past. Also loved the Jim caviezel one with Guy pierce. It was exciting to watch it glued you to the screen. It was exciting to see how he would plot his revenge. And disguise himself as as The count of montecristo. But this miniseries lost me. As others have pointed out they modernized it and it lost its touch plus. It's not exciting at all just a bunch of sex scenes like others have commented and I agree that were not necessary to see William levy having. I do like him but not for this role I am sorry to say I also like Esmeralda pimentel and I thought she was pretty good but not enough to save this.... Very bad bad bad bad at times I would lose track in what I was watching it's awful would not recommend unless you want to see William levy have sex with everyone.

The development, and ending, of the entire series is an insult to Alewxandre Dumas' classic.

That adaptation along with the 2002 American version are the two worst adaptations of the book. And the film The Prisoner of Château d'If (1988) by Georgi Yungvald-Khilkevich is the best version.. Viktor Avilov may not be as handsome as Willaim Levy and Jim Caviezel, but The Prisoner of Château d'If's screenplay is far superior to those two adaptations put together.

The screewriters may have tried to transport the story to the present day, but not only did they do that, they completely rewrote the story. No screenwriter is better than Alexandre Dumas.

Perhaps William Levy's fans praised the story of the series because of the author's beauty, but I want to see how they will do to praise this series, which is terrible.

The count of Monte of Monte Cristo would be a mixture of The Odyssey by Homer with Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky. With the redemption of the protagonist who regrets his revenge and forgives, he has a new beginning with Haydee just as Raskonilkov had with Sonia.

The film the three musketeers by Martin Bourboulon, based on another classic by Alexandre Dumas, no matter how many defects this adaptation has, this version manages to be much better.

***it does not contain spoilers***** This series could have been a great production but unfortunately it disappoints in the end. Very good locations and the plot is well built but the casting is very weak and the scenes of action are not well achieved. I will give it a 6. It seems that it was created to make shine William Levy, unnecessary and not credible sex scenes. There is no chemistry between the main characters, lack of emotion and credibility in a lot of scenes and actors/actresses.

The production company has been very brave by adapting a classing book into a modern and contemporary story.

Great series. Love story line and film locations. All characters are great, would love to see more !!!!

From the original which was dark I am truly enjoying all the twists and turns of the story line. The more I watched the more I was unable to stop from going to next episode.

Cast is amazing and I don't want it to end. Just 1 episode left out of 6. Binge worthy !!!!!!!

Anyone comparing it to the original book is completely out of touch. This is not meant to be a classic in the same sense as reading it. No comparison and it purely entertaining! I was not disappointed at all and would watch again!
