Atrapados

Beautiful landscapes, great cinematography, and strong performances make this series engaging. It's always a pleasure to see Soledad Villamil, and alongside Alberto Ammann, the series boasts a truly great cast. Ammann remains an underrated talent despite his standout role in *Narcos*, he still hasn't gotten the recognition he deserves.

Such a gifted actor!

The story is compelling and keeps you hooked.

However, the naivety of the main character is hard to believe...unless, sadly, this is how many journalists operate today, disregarding consequences.

Overall, it's an interesting series, and for lovers of Argentinian culture, it's an even more appealing watch.

The script and idea were promising, with good potential to create a gripping story. However, the poor editing and very bad performances turned it into a confusing and slow series that failed to maintain engagement. The lack of pacing, awkward scene transitions, and uninspired acting made it frustrating to watch. What could have been a compelling thriller ended up feeling disjointed and tedious. The atmosphere and setting had promise, but the execution fell flat, making it difficult to connect with the story or characters. The dialogue felt unnatural, and the tension never fully developed, leaving a disappointing final result.

Investigative journalist Ema Garay is relentless in trying to discover what happened to seventeen year old Martina, an enquiry that leads to some shocking revelations and places her in mortal danger.

It's a good watch, if you're used to The British adaptations of Harlen Coben's books, it will feel very different, not just because of the language or location, it just feels different, maybe a little darker or grittier.

It's a book I read some time ago and all but forgotten, it deals with some pretty grim subjects, some now considered slightly taboo, possibly too controversial to warrant a British production.

Mystery and intrigue all the way, just when you think you know what's going on, you're thrown a curve ball, they definitely make you wait.

I've read some criticism about the central character Ema, but I liked her, sure she's flawed, but that's human nature, she is one dogged journalist, I thought Soledad Villamil was excellent.

It looks really good and I love the setting, Argentina looks so cool, the visuals are strong the whole way through, a real feature.

7/10.

First off I'm argentinian, so this may be a little biased. You have been warned.

When I started watching this series I thought it would be the typical missing girl movie/series. I don't wanna spoil anything, but let's just say it's not what it may seem at first look...in a good way. You think you know what's happening and then it takes some very unexpected turns.

The story is ultimately not "shocking", but I think that's something good, it ads to its overall credibility.

Acting is decent. Dialogues are reasonably good and credible (as a lawyer I found some police lines kinda dumb, but that's unavoidable in a work of fiction) music is ok, photography is good.

I would recommend this. It's not one of the best series out there, but it's well above average, especially for Netflix standards.

For the people like me who love Spanish thrillers don't listen to the bad reviews!

I don't dissect a film into smithereens, I just go by the emotions and feelings I get out of it.

The acting was excellent, I see no problem with any of the actors , the main character actually reminded me of Ann Bancroft lol, even the same mannerism, RIP Anne.

The landscapes were beautifully filmed.

The plot started out with you thinking , oh I know what's going on, but step by step unravelled. Every time you thought you knew the ending , nope, there comes another twist. I like this kind of narrative very much I guess that's why I gave this film 8 stars.

I can completely and without hesitation recommend this series!
