Alba

After the 3rd episode I lost patience with this show.13 episodes of more than 50 minutes each to resolve a plot that shouldn't take more than a couple of hours. I've got better things to do!

Fatmagul was a 10 and exceptional series the whole cast the script the narrative the rythm all elements that made it socially relevant. Alba on the contrary It is an average product that we may easily forget.

I don't think it's quite fair for me to rate this yet since I'm on episode 6.... BUT i had to complain about Rubens mother. Her character kills it for me every time she enters the scene... she looks straight out of a telenovela from the 80's. Each scene she enters the show feels like we went back to the 80's. Aside from her , and I'm a fan of every character from Elite, ( Alvaro is in this playing another not so great guy), the cast are great and it's a good binge. Also, it's making me want to visit Spain. Beautiful location.

This was an intense drama about a brutal rape. It shows how it not only affects the victim but also her family, friends and even the community. It was dragged out too long I think. I definitely feel like the story probably could have been condensed into around 6 episodes.

I have to point out the good first. Amazing views and scenery so much so that I want to up sticks and move to Spain and live in one of those fabulous houses.

Acting from lead female was really good and most of the other characters although I just could NOT get on with the lead's brother, so out of place. I was unsure whether he had learning difficulties or he was an idiotic hot head. His acting was so bad, I could not work it out!

Now for the not so good.... This show could have been wrapped up in one hour 30 mins. It was an interesting storyline but after episode 3 (of 13) I felt like the life had been drained out of it and I just wanted it over. To endure 10 more episodes was so frustrating that I fast forwarded all episodes from there!!!

Good storyline but so looooooong!!
