Cien años de soledad

I'm still on episode 4 but so far so good, actually pretty amazing , it was everything I hoped it will be . I know there will be a lot of people will not be happy of this adaptation, but in the end it's a big big novel, we all know it's just unfilmable and like you all know the author didn't agree on adapting the novel before, and now his children's agreed on adapting it, so the result in my opinion is that Netflix managed to adapt it pretty well, maybe not all perfect, but they got it very close, I think they did a remarkable work of recreating the spirit of the novel + the casts is very good , and the locations and all production was satisfying actually. Overall I recommend people to give this a shot and don't let the critics to effect you and also don't let the Netflix name effect on you.

One Hundred Years of Solitude is one of the most extraordinary and magical TV series I have ever experienced. Based on Gabriel García Márquez's masterpiece, the show perfectly captures the essence of Macondo, the mythical town at the heart of the story, and brings to life the epic tale of the Buendía family.

What makes this adaptation truly unique is its ability to blend the fantastical with the everyday, delivering moments of sheer wonder that feel both timeless and deeply human. The show's rich visual style, paired with its poetic storytelling, draws you into a world where time loops in strange ways, ghosts linger, and reality shimmers with magic.

From the haunting beauty of Remedios the Beauty's ascension to heaven to the tragic cycles of love, war, and solitude, every scene is a masterpiece. The cast is phenomenal, embodying the complexity and depth of Márquez's characters with authenticity and passion.

This series doesn't just adapt One Hundred Years of Solitude; it elevates it, turning the novel's enchanting pages into an unforgettable visual and emotional journey. It is, without a doubt, one of the best shows I've ever seen-an extraordinary celebration of magical realism and the resilience of human life.

Spellbinding. A visual marvel and a philosophical masterpiece. Pure magic. So light and easy to watch, yet so very deep. An adaptation that definitely does justice to the source material. I wish I could speak Spanish as I am sure it's way better in the original language, but it's quite mesmerizing in English. Not to mention how gorgeous the cast is. Simply amazing. It's a near perfect translation of Gabriel Garcia Marquez's Magnum Opus: Cien años de Soledad. Beautiful cinematography, enigmatic and interesting plot, insanely written characters, a love letter to Gabriel!. It made me go read the book again after decades.

I had read this novel in 2018 After finishing it, I searched for any movie or series based on this novel, and I didn't find anything, which was surprising to me.

Marquez created a whole world with great craftsmanship, great characters, and events that will be remembered forever.

As for the series, what a series!

Often when a movie or series is adapted from a novel the novel is much better, with the exception of a few works.

And this series definitely succeeded in adapting the novel correctly and bringing this great world to the small screen.

To those who are hesitant to watch this series, believe me, there is nothing more important than watching the series to spend your time.

Pure joy watching this cinematic Colombian marvel. Screen adaptation exceeded my expectations and eliminated all fears about potential disastrous attempt to make a decent movie out of a so-cold "unfilmable" novel. Looks absolutely authentic and magical to my eyes. Bravo to Colombian creators and Colombian crew for very attentive, careful and delicate adaptation o[f one of the most beautiful novels ever written!

Cinematographic work is outstanding and displays beauty of Colombia very vividly. Costumes, colonial architecture, interior design of the buildings and carefully chosen music portrait altogether unforgettable atmosphere of Colombian magic in every and each detail.
