Adapting One Hundred Years of Solitude into a cinematic work appears to be an extremely difficult task for two main reasons.
First, this novel belongs to a specific literary movement, pioneered by South American writers, particularly Gabriel García Márquez, where the story is narrated through the blending of reality and fantasy. At times, this fusion is so intense that separating the two seems impossible. Naturally, translating such scenes into cinema risks making them appear absurd and failing to achieve a satisfactory cinematic form. However, watching the first episode of the series One Hundred Years of Solitude revealed that the creators managed to convey this magical and surreal feeling to the audience without making it seem ridiculous.
The second reason is the inherent complexity of the novel. One Hundred Years of Solitude is challenging to read due to its repeated use of identical names for different characters, as well as its non-linear narrative and frequent disruptions of the timeline. These elements may exhaust the reader. Fortunately, such issues are absent in the series, which has successfully transformed the non-linear narrative into a linear one, allowing it to establish a strong connection with the audience.

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.

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.
Just finished episode one. This really could have been terrible but it's not. It's always a challenge to translate inner thoughts and fears and doubts and inner reactions to things like visions! The dubbing is pretty good in English but I switched to Spanish with English subtitles and it felt more comfortable. I'm pleased they're taking their time over the table as it's important to set the scene and even so it feels a little hurried but with sixteen episodes I'll live with it. I've read the book three times in my life and it's ok. No expense has been spared with the locations and the sets and that does help create the atmosphere. Looking forward to the questionable ethnics stuff! No censorship please!

It's an excellent adaptation. We start with an amazing Photography, good representation of the scenarios and creative direction with an approach that respects the original work. They also adapts the events of the book with dedication, and makes use of resources such as conceptual shots to add to the narrative. At the same time it respects in the ethnic and cultural aspect what Colombia is, as a people and society. Traditions, music, food and diversity of races are part of what the Macondo universe is, as well as the history that makes up the years of a violent past in Colombia. This gives way to what is its chronology, which is perfectly threaded, which results in a somewhat different product in its content, but not in a negative connotation for the development of the story. It is, in fact, a work with a lot of dedication, and pretty faithful that evokes the nostalgia of what is a hundred years of solitude and the artistic impact that it had for subsequent generations influenced by Latin American literature and the work of García Marquez.
