3.0 out of 5 stars Kind of disappointed..., March 20, 2011

This review is from: Victoria (DVD)

First, I love the show, and I usually do not love (or even like) telenovelas. But I've liked this one since it first ran on Telemundo a few years ago, and I agree with pretty much all the good things the other positive reviewers have said.

However... as some other reviewers have also said, this version is wayyyyyy heavily edited. It moves super fast due to the editing, and I'm not sure I like it quite so much. They edited out a lot (A LOT!) of developmental elements of the storyline and went straight to the bullet points, which makes it a little less interesting than it would otherwise be. But don't get me wrong; it's not like one long trailer. It has some development, just not nearly as much as the TV version. Example of how heavy the editing is; there is not one single full episode in the collection.

Oh, and that brings up another point: the DVDs run as one continuous "movie" of the whole novela. It is not divided into episodes. I'm not saying that's good or bad; it's just an FYI if you're considering buying it.

I haven't had any problems with the quality or anything like that, and the main story points are all there. But just be aware that it is heavily edited if you are buying it because you loved the show on TV.

Would I recommend it to someone who never saw the TV version? Yes!
To someone who loves the TV version? Eh... mas o menos. No diría que esté MAL, pero... es bastante diferente.

Oh, and if you get this for educational purposes or to share with non-Spanish speakers, be aware that there are no subtitle options. :)

I loved the soap I saw the version on tv and I feel that there parts that should have been included on the soap and somethings that could have been edited they were not interesting. But as we all know we can't have it all.

2.0 out of 5 stars Sadly Disappointed, July 30, 2010

Victoria Fan - See all my reviews

This review is from: Victoria (DVD)

Sadly, the quality of the actual DVD was so bad, it made the DVD player make odd noises when loading. The second disappointment has to do with the content, which did not match the actual program as it was aired on TV.
Overall rating for quality and content...2. Terribly disappointed.
