La Tempestad

Muy Buena Venta!!! El DVD llego rapido. Fue un buen precio. Asombroso producto y Vendedor. Muchisimas Gracias!! Very good buy!!! The DVD arrived fast. It was a great price. Awesome product and Seller. Thank you very much!!

iT WAS A GOOD STORY; HOWEVER SOME OF THE CONTENT WAS LEFT OUT, BUT NOT ENOUGH TO CHANGE THE STORY LINE.

Came faster than expected expensive 🫰 but worth the money 💰.

One of the best telenovelas. I really love it. Music in it is very good, beautiful song. I like Hoy tengo ganas de ti very much. Ximena Navarrete is the best actress. Enjoyable telenovela.

La Tempestad (The Tempest - 735 minutes) William Levy is back but for almost half of the novela he looks like Brad Pitt during his scruffy period, so he is NOT appealing to me: dirty, lanky, shoulder-length hair and of course, the unshaved look. In this one he plays a professional fisherman named Capitán Damián Fabré, who is under contract to a packing plant that has just hired a new manager, Marina Reverte, played by Ximena Navarrete. The plant is owned by Mercedes Artigas (Daniela Romo) who has a secret in her past. Our Capitán is a local lady killer who is very open to flirtations and one-night stands. We have varying degrees of villains, the very worst one is a human trafficker named Ernesto, played by Manuel Ojeda; the next to the worst is Fulgencio, played by César Évora. The least villainous (because he's crazy) is Hernán, played by Iván Sánchez. We play “Who's your Mama?” and have identical twins to complicate matters. Too many tears and begging for forgiveness, with many illogical plot devices. This one is NOT a favorite. I got mine through Amazon.

Great Novela but alot of scenes were cut from original novela.

Love the drama

Let me start by saying that the quality of this DVD is great - the audio and visual are excellent. The English subtitles could use some work because they didn't always translate everything accurately but that wasn't a large issue. The DVD also came right on time so that was great. I'm a recent telenovela fan (due to the gorgeousness of William Levy) and this is the first one I've actually bought on DVD. I've heard so many times about the heavy editing so I think the good thing was that I went into this not expecting too much. I did not watch this telenovela on TV but I am aware of everything that happened due to reading a blog that translates every episode in English. I am pleased that a lot of the extra storylines have been cut out and it MOSTLY focuses on the relationship between Damian and Marina. However, even with that focus, there were so many important scenes that were cut out between the two of them - some of them included subplots involving the couple that I felt were significant. And some of them just included some sweet love scenes that would have been great to see in the middle of the constant drama. I was especially disappointed with that (but don't worry, not ALL of them are gone). I felt like there were other scenes that could have been cut in order to make room for more scenes between the two leads. But even with that, I'm glad that I purchased this because it allowed me to see scenes (with the English subtitles) that I unfortunately cannot locate on Youtube. Now the quality of the novela itself I cannot judge fully because, of course, a little above 12 hours of footage - plus the little I could find in Spanish & Portuguese on Youtube lol - do not fairly depict the actual hundred or so hours of it. But what I did see, I really liked. All of the actors involved did a good job and of course William Levy was a huge plus for me! ;) I would have given it 3 stars because I was really disappointed about some of the missing scenes but it got 4 because I liked what I did see so much.
