If it hadn't been for my wife, Carmen, undoubtedly, LABERINTO is a Telenovela that I never would have watched...But now that I have, I must admit that I found it rather enjoyable!
When you think of "Telenovelas", pedophilia, I'm sure, isn't exactly the first thing that pops into your head! But here we have a Colombian Telenovela where the topic is front and center! I'll have to give the producers credit for tackling a subject that, not more than just a few years ago would have been absolutely unthinkable!
If you have seen any Colombian telenovelas, you have probably noticed that the acting and production values are, generally, noticeably better than those produced in most other Latin countries. At least, that is usually what I have seen to be true. In the case of LABERINTO, this seems to be more than obvious!
Although there are some of the almost universal conventions and shortcomings found in Telenovelas, when taken as a whole LABERINTO does provide some interesting entertainment!
ENJOY! / DISFRUTELA!

LABERINTO Is an excellent example of the current state Colombian Telenovelas today. Compared to telenovelas from other Spanish speaking countries, it deals with a topic that most other Spanish speaking countries would never dream of tackling ...Child Abuse!
This delicate topic is presented in a way that is not sensationalistic in the least. LABERINTO is a cautionary tale that shows us just how vigilant parents must be with their kids ...Especially in relation to monitoring and supervising their contacts on the Internet!
As is usually the case with Colombian telenovelas, the production values are surprisingly high. The acting, screenplay, photography and other technical aspects of the production are extremely well done. It is my firm belief that, in general, Colombian telenovelas are the best in Latin América...and that includes Brazilian productions! LABERINTO is a perfect example of just why I feel this way!
