Sem Limites

Actors with very good performance and the main caracthers well presented. The main facts have been developed mostly with historic accuracy. I do not why someone says the are going to East this is not pictured in the series. They sail South sometimes just to escape the Armada attacks. The lack of some insights to the main audience,like quick geographic references,makes the series a little complex to understand. The Director is not the best one by sure and the series lacks a sense of continuity by cutting key passages in the trip. But in general good action, well designed costums and sequence of events.

The drama and action are pretty standard for a setting like this.

However, the historical accuracy is sooo bad. For gods sake they didnt even get the direction of Magellans voyage correct. Magellan went westward while this show has him going east. Yikes.

If you need a little mindless diversion, this show might provide it. It was okay-very average. If you want a history lesson, you're looking in the wrong place.

Considerable time spent languishing with starving and sick sailors on the decks of leaking ships, along with the occasional gory battle scene. But none of that is gratuitous. It's part of the self-immersion into a tale of extraordinary courage, perseverance, and survival. Despite the opinions of others, I find the film pretty true to known history, at least with a brush just broad enough to embrace good story-telling. For fans of historical drama, this is an excellent past time, with everything a good adventure movie should have: good acting, believable character development, interesting direction, good writing, excellent dialogue, and wide cinematography. All in all, a story told with great emotional depth, and well worth the commitment to six episodes.

Let me start by saying that the show overall isn't that bad.

I was surprised in a positive way with the performance of some of the actors. I wasn't expecting them to act that way and they were better then I though.

On the negative way the screen was very dark and there are a couple of historical facts that aren't at all accurate.

Still it was entertaining and a reasonable show to watch. It could have been better and the story could have been told on a different way regardless of being more or less accurate. Still If you're looking for a more historical accurate show, then this isn't for you. Instead you should look into some documentaries.
