One of the greatest pleasures I have is to wait a long long time to watch again movies that I loved. I was 17 when this movie was released and now 15 years later I watched it again to feel the same emotion and thrill. It didn't disappoint me to rewatch it. This is a great film with a great storyline. it's science fiction but there is a very good message behind it. I really enjoy films about time traveling and this is one of my favorites, because it's so well constructed. I think I appreciate it even more watching now in 2021 then I did 15 years ago. Because basically I remembered the story, that he could travel back in time and I also remembered the ending ,cause I thought it was such a great ending back then and I still do, but the middle I completely forgot about so it was really good to rewatch. I will wait another 15 years to watch it again!!!
I was looking forward for this show and so far, I'm enjoying it.
Before anything, for all people out there saying "the actress doesn't look like Selena, her hair doesn't look like Selena's" .. just do a little research and you'll find out that Selena actually had pretty curly hair and in her earlier years she did rock her curls! Only later she started to style her hair in a different way. You'll see that her hair curls and color actually looked like that before... Later on in the show you'll see she changes her style as she matures and becomes a woman!
I am, like many people, a huge fan of the movie with JLo, but obviously they speeded up in order to make a 2 hours movie about her life, the series portrays a more detailed and slower paced timeline. So they actually did a great job by showing her hair like that. Just give it some time because the series is showing her earlier years and the process of her becoming the Selena we know.
Yes, there are some negative aspects, but I think that it's overall consistent and well portrayed. Sometimes the acting isn't the best performance, but it isn't THAT bad either.
Obviously the actress can't dance as JLo, hasn't the same curves as JLo , but she's good and as far as I know, Selena's family chose and approved her to play Selena... That has to mean something. Just enjoy the series for what it is. Don't compare to the movie. It's a different kind of magic and it's great that her memory is being honored.
So this review is based on the first season, I haven't watched the others yet but I've always heard that the first season is the best one.
This is about good person, living a normal life, good wife, good mom, that commits a brutal crime out of the blue, apparently for no reason; so the story unfolds as a determined detective tries very hard to find out what led her to do it and what were her motives for such crime.
I honestly watched the whole thing in one day because I was so intrigued and on the edge of my seat during the whole show.
The cast did a pretty good job, great acting, but Jessica Biel and Bill Pullman did an outstanding job, they were both incredibly good performing their roles as really troubled people.
I honestly liked it a lot especially because it doesn't end with plot holes, everything kind of come together in the end.
I'm giving it a 9 because I think that it could have been one or two episodes shorter, it can be very slow-paced at times.
I will definitely watch season 2 because I think it will be good as well, maybe not as good at this first season but I am curious.
