Maldivas

When Manu Gavassi (Milene) left Big Brother, the singer, who made everyone laugh saying she wanted to be a villain, confessed she wanted to make her own series. The brazilian nation, already captivated by her charisma and marketing skills, smiled happily when Maldivas was announced. Knowing that Bruna Marquezine would be in this project with her friend increased fans expectation about the show.

I admit I was skeptical. After so many bad brazilian series, not only on Netflix, I was raised knowing our way of making TV. But I also knew Natalia Klein talent way before Manu started singing. The screenwriter and narrator already had my heart.

This show is good because of the ideas, the lines, the small details and because, instead of a didactic novela style, it fits in a worldwide known genre. You won't be surprised by the plot, the raised questions will certainly be guessed quickly. But you will laugh and enjoy - and if you are brazilian you will get more jokes.

ITS GREAT! I love the colors, the plot, the actresses (the actors are fine, too, but the actresses, god!), the drinks, the aesthetic! Everything! It's so nice to see Netflix giving more space to brazilian artists, they're super talented people! Can't wait for netflix to renew it!

The show mostly takes place on the grounds of this apartment building as the episodes progress, but the actors are spectacular and I never got tired of watching them.

Each of them is a fascinating character, with various romantic relationships, friendships, and solidarity between women, and the transitions and complexity of their feelings were wonderful to watch.

The mystery part is also well put together and I was so engrossed in the film that I finished it in about two days.

I am waiting for season 2.

It's a quirky tv show to binge watch in your spare time. Plus it's always nice to see Bruna Marquezine and Manu Gavassi on screen! Even though the plot isn't flawless and you can't expect much, it's still comical, refreshing and worth watching. There's room for a second season as many questions are left unanswered, i hope they will renew the series for another season. If you are in the right mood for a soapy Brazilian drama i recommend it, but don't have high expectations. Maybe one of the problems of this series is that there are too many plotlines to be developed well, but it's full of drama, gossip and secrets.

This serie is so awful. I have no words to describe how it's horrible. 😬 The cast is not good and the story too. Natalia Klein (Veronica) as the narrator is sooooo bad. I just couldn't whatch until the end. Sorry.
