Review: The Best Series I've Ever Watched

I can confidently say this is the best series I've ever watched. From the very first episode, I was completely hooked. The storyline is captivating, the characters are incredibly well-developed, and the pacing is perfect. Every scene is crafted with such precision that it keeps you on the edge of your seat, eagerly anticipating what will happen next. It's rare for a show to grab your attention so quickly and hold it all the way through, but this one does it effortlessly. If you're looking for a series that's impossible to stop watching, this is it. Highly recommended!

This is an amazing representation of the events that happened that day, the stories shared are truly authentic, and the script is masterfully developed and executed. This really captures the true Mexico. They also did a really great job of capturing what 1985 Mexico City looked like, and all the events that transpired inside the fallen buildings really take your breath away. I also really liked the character development and their back stories, it makes you care for what happens to them and they are really easy to root for, knowing that all this stories really happened under the ruble is mesmerizing, definitely a great attribute to human nature.

Congratulations on a very nice show, and I'll stay tuned for season 2.

The actual earthquake lasted for more than 80 seconds. It was really long. I was expecting a lot more of the movement, and different people experiencing things. At least some imagery of the news TV show just before all went dark. But in the show was just a few seconds. Not enough to get invested in a whole series. The dialogue of the woman reporter and her crew was wooden, unrealistic and disgustingly modern. Not at all how it was on that moment: Nobody was prepared, nobody had lived through something like this. It was obvious it was written by somebody who haven't lived through any event similar, neither worked in news. I don't know of they try to portrait her as a protagonist but instead seemed an antihero. The aspect of the hospital was better done. But again, the "speeches" other doctor and similar are completely unrealistic. People just started helping without anybody giving those kind of lame words. It's a shame, because it could have been a great show.

Loved the drama, the production and everything about the tv series. I highly recommend it, and I have to say, it's a monumental achievement. The series does a brilliant job honoring the resilience and courage of those who lived through the 1985 Mexico City earthquake. From the first episode, the storytelling gripped me, blending deeply personal narratives with the collective trauma and heroism of the time. Each character felt authentic, their struggles and triumphs making the tragedy feel all too real.

The use of virtual production to recreate the city's devastation is nothing short of groundbreaking. It transported me directly into the heart of the chaos, and the attention to detail showed incredible respect for the historical context. Director Jorge Michel Grau deserves immense credit for unearthing untold stories that resonate so powerfully. The balance between human vulnerability and strength is masterful.

Congratulations to the entire team for setting a new benchmark in Latin American storytelling.

Anyone who knows the feeling of an earthquake in Mexico can relate to this great story!! The writers did an amazing job g job taking each chapter for the characters to evolve. You get to care for each extra around the story because it's all about the bigger picture but about each human experience.

The way you get to know the characters and its marvelous course of events. The way you feel the moment. Each chapter makes you feel exactly how they were feeling.

In the moment the babies were saved: history was written repeating ...the moment every person came out alive or dead. The feeling of the after math of an earthquake.

Mexicans have special powers when we get together : this make you feel like one of them, one of us in these situations and you know you're in great hands.

I can't wait for part two.
