Now and Then - O Segredo Que Nos Une

I wasn't sure at first with it being bilingual but I quickly forgot about it as it drew me in.. its a drama I thought it rather clever and plenty twists and turns too which is why i binged the entire series in one sitting!

I'm not sure about anyone giving this a negative review if they haven't watched all of it.

Its not a highly intellectual piece of television, but what it is however, is a bit of escapism. Something a bit different and I would recommend this highly for that reason!

Take it for what it is folks and get over yourselves!!

What I want to know is... is there a second season?!?!

Quite a catchy recipe for this one and adequately executed. A group of friends, 20 years after a certain event are being blackmailed for what happened back then. It's the same recipe that Netflix used for creating the much inferior "two summers". The 4th episode of this apple TV series is amazing and the plot is quite intriguing throughout. The suspense is being kept with new elements in every episode and the pace is normal to fast which is good for a change. All these pretentious crap series that keep the pace slow on purpose and for now reason, drive us to extreme levels of boredom. Almost only the European productions have a true justification for the slow pace that we usually encounter in their series (e.g. They build characters, show emotions, raise the tension etc). American TV shows of nowadays think that by purposely keeping the pace slow, this automatic raises the quality standards. Thanks God this show is not that pretentious. Enjoy it for what it is: a suspenseful and commercial crime thriller which is interesting to watch whilst being neither super sophisticated nor of low quality.

It seems like a lot reviewers jumped the gun and gave negative reviews on the first episode or first few episodes. It took a few episodes to find its groove and what may have seemed like a cliche plot idea at the start, reveals itself to be much more complex and intriguing. The characters are also a lot more complex than they may first appear to be. I really hope there will be a season 2.

Well, it seems like i've watched this series a million times, because it's just like any mediocre series on netflix, but on apple tv, please apple don't buy more series from netflix, your content is way superior to this awful series.

I like Rosie Perez and she shines in this movie. Once I got used to the time change from "the night" to the present day it became very easy to follow even though I had to read the subtitles.

I enjoyed it so much I binge watched it, often rewinding to catch details and verbiage I missed. Watching the teen "take on the world" ideal versus real adult life was very interesting capturing what happens to your dream life doesn't happen if everything doesn't fall into place.

Don't let the naysayers stop you from watching, form your own opinion. Get past the first few episodes, it takes a bit to get started, but watching the plot and then the added subplots play out is worth the wait.
