Her Mother's Killer

Nice story, very good production but main actress age is 50+ and playing a rol of a 30+ woman. This situation (old difference) make a noice diring the full film.

Could not stop watching this film even though it is a foreign film. English captions. Everything about this film was premium. Great actors, wardrobe, plot, cinematography, location. Each episode had me hungry for more. Hoping to see remaining four episodes. Hit this one out of the park. Thanking all the cast and crew for such a great film.

All other roles were excellent (only Pablo's daughter needs acting lessons). Juliana Galvis who plays Carolina is an amazing actress and should have been cast as Analia. The current Analia (Carolina Gómez) is almost 50 playing a 30 something? Her love scenes with Pablo are gross, like kissing his mother. Not fooling anyone. Even Michelle Manterola could have played a better Analia, The age would fit. Analia should be in the 30s to fit the role. Carolina Gómez should have been cast as Mejia's wife, age wise, would have been more appropriate. Even the actress cast as Mejia's wife is younger than her.

The story kept me glued until the end, some of the scenes had me thinking "this would not happen in real life" but who cares, it was very entertaining. I'm not sure why people are complaining about the protagonists' age gap, they both did a great job, and I don't think she looks 50 years old. There are plenty of movies where the male protagonist is way older than his counterpart and I've never heard that as a criterion for criticism the movie itself.

I love the ending of all the characters, nothing overdone or cheese. I will also like to see a 2nd session, who becomes president, Pablo's bother? Although I see it as unlikely,

After watching the excellent 'Velvet' another Spanish drama I needed a long series/season to lose myself in.

This had so much wrong with it from the annoyingly overpowering background drumming music, the lead actress was clearly older than the main romantic lead, and the acting comprised mainly of having head in hands or hands combing through hair and most of the performances was mediocre at best. The person playing Benji, well where did they get him from ?? He clearly never had an acting lesson in his life, he never showed any reaction and didn't know where to stand on set, and don't get me started on that back to front baseball cap.

The best actor throughout was Brian Moreno - Guillermo (his real life son played the younger version), he played the part of an evil megalomaniac to perfection. I thought no-one could be worse than JR Ewing in Dallas, decades ago, but this actor blows him out of the water !

Yes, despite all its faults, it made for compulsive viewing.
