Bolívar

Absolutely loved this show. I cried a lot throughout the series because it made me transport myself as if I lived during that time. Beautiful production and amazing actors. Recommend it to others to watch.

This is an incredible series of historical fiction, (mostly historical fact), on Simon Bolivar. He is one of my all time heroes as I did a paper on him in college for political sciences. He had charisma, looks, and a magnetic personality. For that, the capitalist forces of old time monarchy in Europe wanted him gone from their guilded lives forever. You can see this, if you don't mind the English subtitles, on Netflix my friends. This is a really great show, full of action, adventure and sex. Enjoy and tell me your thoughts on good ole Simon and his wild and Wiley antics and hudspah. Cheers, Murf

I love anything that has to do with history and I enjoyed this riveting series. I felt some of the acting, especially from a few of the women, was corny and overly dramatized. Some of the musical score did not fit the scene. Other than that, it was so exciting that I binged watched it on Netflix.

I'm a Venezuelan. Loved it so much that I'm re watching it again. Based on the Memoirs of Bolívar's aide de camp Gral O'Leary. So People here who criticize accents etc are ignoring the fact that it is impossible to film in Venezuela nowadays. And both actors playing Bolívar are Venezuelans with same accent. Very entertaining to watch my history classes come to life. Specially in our very dire present political & economical times.

As a Spanish learner I am always looking for series in Spanish to watch. If that fits you, then this is a good series to watch. The actors are good, the scenery nice, the story well developed. It's a good quality telenovela along the lines of another great Colombian telenovela - La Niña. And 60 episodes give me lots of practice with my Spanish!
