L'incidente

If you're looking for something to pass the time, this show might be it. Be aware that there's a lot of violence and a lot of unanswered questions at the end. Could have l been so much better because the starting point (the accident and how it destroys those families lives) is increadible material to work with. The non sensical violence and the fact that not everything ties up at the end ended up being a real disappointment for me. I'm not sure I would recommend this show unless you like violence in tv shows. Also, is this really how Mexico works? Things are solved by the "law of the people". Hope not.

Compelling at the start. However, poorly dubbed. As one with knowledge of the criminal justice system the plot indeed turned an accident into a murder. As the story progressed every female character becomes someone you can truly despise . Every one of them ! I lasted the entire series because of the desire to see what would happen with this disaster of a storyline. It wasn't pretty . The hatred spewed among people who had zero sense of the criminal culpability is astonishing. Children die as a result of a bouncy house not being properly secured. The wind blows it away ( very unlikely ), and the plot turns on who is responsible. That inaction is deemed to be murder. Nowhere in the US ( this is in Mexico ) that I know of would this be murder - and yes, it was negligent and a very unlikely "accident." The main mean character tries to kill the children of the man he thought to be responsible by burning them in their home - and although he is clearly responsible and witnesses are present he's never charged!!!! Ok, I watched it. Maybe because it was SO bad. But I can not in good conscience recommend it. There's so much better to watch and do.

... having its own Spanish-soap dumb-charm, with quite a few stupid happenings... like putting a brick in a ziplock-bag weighing-down a couple items thrown into a river, when items on their own would be impossible floating

... everyone-characters overacting more than not can wear viewers down... just watch without overthinking and it becomes less-annoying more-watchable... every actor filling their parts pretty well... one stands out that without him this production would not have succeeded much at all... Alberto Guerra as the hated villain Charro... he alone is worth viewing-time, making most of each-every evil-minute onscreen

... ending as-if there's another season coming... bet many of those giving poor ratings will be watching again, it's that guilty-pleasure-allure.

So I don't know why the ratings are so bad and low. I read someone's comment that said 2/3 sex scenes in every episode . Erm helloooo did we watch the same series? Because I don't remember this series being about sex at all.

The genre is drama and that's exactly what they gave.

A lot of drama and fast paced.

There was something new happening every time. It's not like those series where over 30 mins can be absolutely unnecessary.

It was good. Drama and drama is all I can say.

Characters acted their parts well. Great story.

I will say the over reactions to what the character who caused the accident was a bit over dramatic.

There are some really good moments, but I just can't shake off the "Televisa presenta" impression. There's always a criminal, a unscrupulous lawyer, a few poor people, and a few too good to be true characters. In this kind of series, there shouldn't be such a strong divide between good and evil, because this isn't a comedy dealing with light subjects. If you're tackling a serious topic, do it professionally. Given that it wasn't done professionally, this will remain just another soap opera that isn't close to being a drama. As long as mistresses, drug lords, corrupt policemen, and exaggerated scenes persist, Latin series will never be taken seriously.
