Fuerza Del Destino

I saw bits and parts of this telenovela when it aired on tv, so I wasn't a stranger to the story. However, I was afraid that the editing would be so bad and I won't understand a thing like it happened with "Fuego en la sangre". Luckily that wasn't the case. The editing was more than good, it was almost perfect, although I wanted to see more of David's storyline, but in general the editing is great. A person who has no clue about the story will be able understand everything that's going on. Another great thing about this DVD set is that it has original soundtrack including main theme "La fuerza del destino" sung by Sandra Echeverria and Marc Anthony. The original Entrada/Opening is also there.Now as for the story itself. It' about a man called Ivan, who after spending many years in the United States, returns to his home town in Mexico and seeks revenge for the death of his mother, and instead he falls in love. The lead couple Ivan and Lucia is played by David Zepeda and Sandra Echaverrie. They both have amazing chemistry! Then there's the evil Lucia's sister Maripaz played by Laisha Wilkins. Rosa Maria Bianchi is also great as Lucrecia, the estranged mother of Maripaz and Lucia. Although the cast member whose acting i enjoyed the most is Kika Edgar whose portrayal of the blind girl Carolina is incredible. She acts so believeable and emotional.The show has all the factors that addictive telenovela: romance, betrayal, murder, revenge, handsome lead guy, crying protagonist, scheming villain, etc. So if you are a fan of telenovelas, go check this one out.I recommend it!

Compre esta Novela para mi mama que le encantan y tiene 80 años. Generalmente no me gustan porque las editan mal y se pierde el hilo de la trama. Sn embargo esta, a pesar de que no sabia nada de la novela, tengo que reconocer que esta muy bien editada y se entendio a la perfeccion. Quizas hay partes, para aquellos que la vieron en TV,sientan que les falte algo, pero para mi estuvo excelente y la actuación fue magnífica. Hace siglos que no veia una novela y cuando mi mama empezó a ver el DVD me interesé tanto que la tuve que ver.. La recomiendo sin reservas y espero la disfruten tanto como yo.

Okay, my Spanish isn't perfect, but it's good enough that I watched this as it was airing. I then purchased this as soon as it was available. The editing on this isn't perfect, but it's good enough. As I was watching, I noticed there are some key scenes missing that make some of the plots hard to follow. On the other hand, most of the main plot isn't lost in the editing and thats a plus. I would personally still try to watch the whole novela if you can, but the editing on this one is good enough.As far as the soap itself goes, I really enjoyed it. This was my first time watching Sandra Echeverria in anything and I thoroughly enjoyed her character. She was kind, but tough. I particularly enjoyed her relationship with her grandmaother (who did not play!). I'm a big fan of David Zepeda and I enjoyed his acting here. The chemistry between the main couple was great. I enjoyed all of the twists and turns and the side characters. I'd definitely recommend this one.

I am currently watching this telenovela on television but I will not have time to finish it because it continues at 2 p.m. and I do not record shows, so I need to have a marathon of this telenovela so I can finish it before school begins. While this telenovela has great young actors, I believe this is Pedro Almendariz Jrs. last telenovela before passing away. He was a star long ago and he is wonderful in the story!! Love him.

David Zepeda is a great actor. Rest of the characters too. I have enjoyed immensely this telenovelas. 'Amores Cruzados' in which David Zepeda is a character was much more fun though. Telenovelas in which diversity of nationalities are involved are really much more entertaining. I would like to thank if possible to the author and screenplayers to these marvelous telenovelas.
