Coração Marcado

Typical Latin American over acted soap opera. Some people love this genre, but if what you are looking is for an acting that looks real, and not exaggerated characters then you should go for this one. There are some scenes that look just horrible and extremely artificial, to a point that cuts your connection to the script, as you can clearly feel its disconnection with reality.

Fast paced with enticing cliffhangers at the end of every episode. Thrilling but with the softening cooling of soap opera dialogues. I cannot condone gruesome mistakes in the script complemented with contrived coincidences. Old cliches typical of Latin America productions. Good looking actors and actresses portraying main characters as a resource to keep you engaged with the screen all the way to the end. Secondary actors, "the ruthless bad guys" have lousy grotesque performances, they seem to be acting in a school play stage . Could be watched to have some fun. Some moral questioning arising from the plot spray bright spots in this one more run of the mill series. Some twists in final episode offered . Fine. Colombia producers have exhibited in streaming, better products.

Was really interested on this show... But couldn't get pass the second episode... Some parts were absolutely ridiculous... You are late to your own wedding because you are taking pictures of a marathon? I mean... The heart recipient had a partially naked photo shoot right before her surgery?? And is devouring french fries around her office right after the operation? Not realistic at all.

A man falls in love with a woman who now owns the heart of his late wife, who was murdered for her heart. Now if there's an interesting and relevant theme, here you have one. Unfortunately the Colombian filmmakers turn it into a hard to swallow soap opera. The script is unnecessarily protracted and unrealistic. The acting is soooooo bad, it felt like watching a high school drama. The president-to-be character never transcends the caricature level. The murdered woman plays the trumpet but never fills her cheeks with air. Come on, do some research.

I've learnt two things from this series: First: ALL Colombian women are good looking.

Second: colombians only have sex with their clothes on.

For short: a missed opportunity. Organ trafficking is a relevant issue. It would have deserved a professional approach. This one clearly isn't.

These colombian thriller series rocked until the tenth episode. This story about organs transplantation broke my heart almost and it is really horrible to know that. The actors played their roles perfectly and congratulations for this spectacular show. Once the truth is known it could have end but it was stretched unnecessarily in too many parts. At number 12 I switched off because it didn't advance anymore and it began to be repetitive. Some scenes were ridiculous and I made a favor to myself to stop. It was great entertainment anyway and it merits solid 6/10. I would have given 7 out 10 if it was not so long.

If you liked it watch John Q. With Denzel Washington.
