O Segredo da Família Greco

I wanted to give it a try despite not "feeling it". Now I can't write a review about the story itself. I couldn't finish it. This is a very boring show with scenes so long I almost felt asleep. Also, it's vey sloppy in the execution with many situations that don't make any sense, and the characters are beyond unlikable, immoral and gross. It's supposed to be a true story, but it looks implausible. Such despicable people. I tried to like it, but I gave up after the first episode and a half. And I lost my time watching it. Sorry, but it's how I feel. I can't understand the positive reviews, but to each their own I guess.

Very engaging, nice screenplay. Thrilling in parts. I normally wouldn't binge, but this one kept me going.

I read about the actual events that had happened after I watched the series. I think the filming is brilliant.

The characters especially the patriarch had so many layers to his personality. How he is confident on his getting his own family involved. It is mind boggling.

Well done by the director - The way some of the events happen, the happy ones and at the same time the cringy ones provides a view on brutality of a simple suburban family members. Not sure why is rated so low. Would recommend this one to my friends who enjoy thrillers.

I wanted to like it, but.... while this TV series based on the true story of the Puccio family of Argentina, the 2015 movie "El Clan" directed by Pablo Trapero featuring Guillermo Francelle and Peter Lanzini is FAR superior, more sinister (and much shorter!).

First, the movie El Clan does not give away the ending in the opening sequence like Familia Greco does. (I watched the movie not knowing anything and it was a real mind-bender.) Also, the juxtaposition of the beautiful visuals and superb music choices of El Clan lend a creepiness that this Familia Greco never quite achieves.

Trust me, watch the 2015 movie El Clan instead. Or watch both and decide for yourself.

Maybe because I lived near there in 1985 (and had NO IDEA!!!), that movie still haunts me years later. Check it out.

I saw this last night and ( you know how it plays ) as you go thru everything? It didn't look that great but I didn't watch anymore and just started the first episode. I don't like many foreign offerings Netflix puts out( Not since Nobody's watching) but this is pretty darn good and the family are all weirdos in their own ways. I did crack up in parts ( at the things the father says) that were funny to me! I can read a bit of Spanish( so I knew it was a true story) but watched it dubbed. Sometimes the dubbing can ruin a good film etc and it wasn't the best but not bad enough to watch with subtitles because there are 9 pretty long episodes ( I thought it had said 6 at start) I fell asleep on around 7. I'm surprised I'm the first review( but you need t look up the original title). I think it's pretty darn good! Better than pretty much most the new series Netflix has released over the last few months. I want to read about the real story because at this point it shows the wife and daughters as being oblivious. I'm going to finish tonight and update if needed. I say watch if you like weird crime stuff.

No question this is an an unusual and cringe-worthy story. It's very depressing to think that some of the opinions of wealthy people is so hated and completely ignorsnt of those who built true legitimate wealth and then are at risk by the type of nutjuobs depicted in the drama. The actors did a very good job and the filmaking good as well. It makes one wonder how widespread is this type type of class jealousy. The main criminal is a far off the charts narcissist and social deviate which is so evil it makes it hard time sleep es especially when it's based on a true story. Wonder why too they put it off as a is a Mexican drama when ithe Pacheco family was actually in Argentina?
