Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

mona_r-719-58673 Loved the series. Binged watched and didn't want it to end. Great performers, POOR dubbing. Voices did not match their looks, but I didn't care, or care if the historical points were correct, or the correct insignias on the uniforms, it's not was wonderfully done and worth watching.Now because no on Season 2!

gerryroberts Pro's: The characters are appealing. The story line is interesting. For the most part, the acting is pretty good. This isn't a deep, serious watch- even considering the subject matter. This was a historical situation I wasn't aware of, so I always appreciate cinema that spurs me on to learn more about what was going on. Con's: I would say the "getting together-breaking apart" aspect of the love story between Julia and Fidel got to comic proportions by the end.In fact, that seemed to be a common theme with ALL the romantic plot lines in the series and it was getting tiresome. That said, I hope there is a season 2. :)

javierruiberriz Ceuta and Melilla have never ever belonged to Morocco. Both cities were founded by both the Spanish and Portuguese and have been Spanish for hundreds of years. Morocco was a bunch of tribes, no nation, no state by the time the cities were founded.Ceuta and Melilla were, are and always be Spanish, it,s just a fact, no nationalistic feelings in that statement, like in anbena's review.

donwords One of my biggest criticisms of this soap opera is that there is no rank insignia on any of the officers' uniforms. Lieutenant, colonel, general - the uniforms are all identical. And by the way, do medical officers always go about armed with pistols? Also, the Arab Larbi that one nurse is in love with: he is clean shaven, and that is a no no for Muslim men. All he ever seems to do is clean windows or put up shutters, aside from hanging around the nurses all the time. One of the issues in the story is the corruption among the Spanish officers - someone is ripping off the medicines and other supplies and a good deal is made of this, but the issue is never resolved. Nobody is caught or chargedd and the issue just sorf of fades away. All in all, an F for authenticity. B+ for romance.
