Santa Evita

Natalia Oreiro convincingly brilliant, very well resembled every period of the story, the characters well chosen on the cast, the very best picture about Eva till today.

This story is not only enchanting, but it makes you wonder what is real and what is fiction. And the answer might surprise you.

Natalia's acting shines as she plays Evita from her years as a radio actress wannabe to her latest days.

The whole historical reconstruction is spotless and it leaves you unsettled but wanting more.

Far from being a masterpiece like other TV shows and movies produced in Argentina, Santa Evita is a nice fiction vaguely based on Eva Perón's very interesting live and the misadventures of her corpse after one of the many political turmoils in Argentina's history. The show is a great opportunity to know more about history of Argentina.

With the dead of Eva Peron came more power than she ever had alive.

This is the story of her remains and the journey and myths surrounding her corpse.

This sometimes strays into the surreal and occasionally into the bizarre and perverted.

This cat and mouse game played like chess with Eva's body playing the central role although merely a pawn.

Part fact part sci-fi part farce it had me transfixed and so engrossed I binge watched all parts in one evening.

Over dubbed in English but reasonably well done (some are dreadful) all he characters play well and sometimes too well.

Overall a good watch.

Santa Evita contains all those elements that make a successful mini-series: an excellent cast, a strong and passionate story, great cinematography and direction, and a great soundtrack.

Natalia Oreiro, with a flawless performance, gives life to perhaps the best Evita Peron we have seen so far on television and cinema. The series presents a more humane and truer approach to the first lady of Argentina and it achieves its goal through the multifaceted interpretation of the protagonist, who manages to render precisely and without succumbing to imitation the changes in attitude, movements, and voice of Evita through time until the end of her life. From the rest of the performances, Ernesto Alterio stands out with a dark character interpreted as perfection.

Santa Evita is not a biography and should not be judged as such. It's an incredible, dark journey full of passion and tension that nevertheless deals with issues that are still connected with our society.
