The Island

I would like to say that this is one of the best productions that Greece has ever done in a long time. The directing and the acting are superb and I cannot express how beautiful the scenery is in which the series takes place.

Also, happy to hear that Victoria Hislop chose Greeks to do this production cause it is worthwhile.

However it is not for all ages especially children for there are scenes not suitable for them to watch.

But overall,congratulations to this magnificent piece of work which is finally worth watching on Greek television these days.

An absolutely amazing work; fiercely emotional, gorgeously filmed, each character full of life.

I'm not going to say anything about the story, just watch it for yourself.

The story, the characters, acting, locale all of it is simply beautiful...do watch.

I don't know where to start but the whole thing is just very unpleasant to look at.

The camerawork would be fitting for a lowbudget horror movie but not for this genre. Crete is beautiful but they sure have hidden it well with this tone of color, blueish/green darkening color filter.

The acting feels very unnatural and the background music is very random and doesn't really match with what is happening.

The story could be good but it is filled with unnecessary and boring substance.

I was looking forward to this but it's a really weird production.

For who is this interesting, I think for Greeks and people who have an obsession with Greece. For people who like good stories, acting and camerawork look elsewhere.

My favorite series of all time. The cast, the quality, the place, the story, everything is perfect. Have seen it again and again while also I have read the book of Victoria Hislop. Definitely recommend it. Perfect capture of that time's culture and routine.
