Alta mar

No masterpiece here but entertaining watch. A few good actors, nice costumes & decor. Recommend as an easy binge.

This show was a great one to watch. I was going through the reviews and from what I've read viewers are annoyed that the dialogue doesn't match the subtitles, the actors can not act & the the lip syncing is not accurate. I watched the show in Spanish & I can say without a doubt that all those are not true. In its original language the show is great. Lots of plot twists and I look forward to the second season! I gave 8 stars because the show is set in the 1940's and some of the hair, costumes, and scenes are inaccurate for that time but over all good show.

I just finished season 1 tonight. The show is so great that I stayed up all night watching. I only wish I had season 2 to watch now. I loved the fact that it was dubbed in English and the story is amazing and so full of intrigue. Even though at its heart it is a mystery it is also a story of love, family and friendship. As a period drama the sets, costumes and acting were wonderful. I loved each of the individual character stories. But like I've said, I really can't wait for more.

...loses its charm quickly.

If you're expecting a murder mystery plot similar to Agatha Christie's novels, you won't find it here. It's more of a soap opera with some silly dialogs and clichés. There is a mystery which was the only thing that kept me but it was solved quickly. Starts good but goes downhill fast and fails to deliver a proper and believable story. It's like Gran Hotel. After the resolve of the main mystery it keeps having "twists" similar to "oh I finally found my lost relative", "oh this character has a secret", "oh this character's secret has a secret" etc

An amazing telenovela! The plotlines are outrageous, the costumes are stunning, and the acting actually pretty good.
