Let's be realistic.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

I am a sucker for Spanish soap operas since I was a little girl even though I didn't understand the language back then but I enjoyed watching them! Now since I do know Spanish, I started to re-watch all the soap operas I've seen since I was little and even considered watching new soap operas and I did watch "mi gorda bella" since I love Natalia so much coz I watched "la mujer de mi vida" when I was little, then I thought about watching "la Tormenta" and I did! but I never thought that it will be on the top of my list of favorite soap operas! Now this is number 1 on my list along with "la viuda de Blanco" 1996, both of the two soap operas are Colombian and this proves that Colombian soap operas are really great! la Tormenta is amazing, I guess the only 2 things that I didn't like were 1-The too many stories aside than the main story 2-The absence of Marite in the last episodes, I guess I have to blame the producers!! However, this soap opera still on the top because of the good acting, the beautiful script, the amazing and wonderful character of Santos Torrealba "the perfect man a woman could have", also the marvelous love story of Santos and Marite, it looked so real ..."I guess they're really really good actors to make me feel everything they felt for each other", every time Santos opens his mouth to say something nice to Marite I feel as if a poet is talking! so amazing! and not just the words he says but the mutual looks and the way they talk makes me feel like I'm livin' it! Moreover, Natalia Streignard is a very beautiful woman, she's like a tender flower and she has this most beautiful voice when she talks! as for Christian Meier "my idol man" he's so hot, he's just too much hehhee! I guess this character of Santos Torrealba is definitely the best character ever written! he deserves to have his own soap opera. Christian was the best actor to do this role and that's for sure! Christian and Natalia have such a chemistry which I haven't seen something like it before! sometimes I feel like they come from another world or something! These two were so good together that I would do anything just to see them together again in another soap opera! I wish for this to happen anytime soon! Aside than the fact that this soap opera is romantic and full of too many romantic scenes, it's also very funny, actually it's hilarious, specially in the first few episodes, I used to laugh like crazy! also it had its sad moments that made me cry ....all this leads to one fact which is that these people do know what they're doing, they really are geniuses!! but unfortunately good things don't last, I felt so sorry for what happened after that; I mean the disappearance of Natalia and the change in script and all!! well...this could have been a master piece but it's okay I can't ask for more than what this soap opera has already gave me; which is too much really!! I enjoyed every single minute of it! I guess this is enough for me!

When this soap started I thought: this is gonna be great, actually it was great in the beginning, good actors, a good storyline, good characters and good stories to explode but... What happened? I mean the story became slow and boring, a lot of new characters trying to be connected with the main cast, I mean: why did they do that? some stories were great and they transformed them in creepy and boring stories nothing to gasp about. And the absence of Natalia's character in the almost two last months of story was a big mistake, hello? we all know that freaky mummy wasn't Natalia and well, they ruin what it was really great, in the beginning.This could be 10 but I only liked this soap until the middle of the story, sigh!

This is one of the most beautiful soap operas I've ever seen. Actors are very good(Natalia Streignard, Christian Meier,...). Natalia has very rare beauty and she is very powerful, too.Christian is very hot and we can imagine him on La Tormenta. Their relationship looks very real and it is not strange that we feel chemistry between Maria Teresa and Santos. I know that most of the people think that soap operas are boring but this one isn't. I like it because remember me on real life and they don't cry every minute like in some others soap operas of that kind.It is perfect for all romantic souls. Don't miss it... 9/10
