Alma pirata (2006)
10/10
Surprisingly good and interesting...
16 July 2007
When I first heard about this TV show I wasn't so sure about it... It was the new production by Cris Morena.. a very popular producer of children shows... Usually her shows are cute and they target their respective audiences perfectly, which is why her shows are so popular. When I was a kid I loved the show she was producing at the time, when I was in my pre-teen years or early teen years I loved the shows she targeted at my audience.

Alma Pirata was being targeted at a completely different audience, which was basically, at that point, my age. So it's safe to say that I grew up watching her shows...

The reason why I wasn't so sure if I was going to like this particular one was because it was completely different to anything Cris Morena had ever produced. It was a show about pirates, a treasure, suspense... It all seemed kind of weird at first. I knew that the acting would be good because the actors and actresses are among the most popular in Argentina and have had good careers in the business.

I started watching the show and started liking it more as the episodes went by. I enjoy the way that this unusual story is told... It is a story about three guys who have lost their fathers. When they are grown up, after being apart for so long, they are brought back together by a woman who used to be great friends with their fathers. She tells them that they are the heirs of their father's: "Liga" which was the group their fathers had created to make justice whenever there was an injustice. But there is something much bigger behind the "Liga"...they are also behind a treasure called "Alma" ... nobody knows exactly what it is, except for Gino Riganti, the "bad guy" who was the one who murdered their dads. He also wants Alma desperately.

It is pretty a pretty weird and unusual storyline, which doesn't sound very realistic (that is what I thought at first). But when you start watching it you realize that it is also about friendship, love and everything that we all love a TV series to have.

It is not easy to tell an adventure story everyday, but they did a very good job of it. The show will keep you tuned until the end to find out what Alma is...

I thought it was a different show told in a great way, and after having watched so many of the same series on TV, this was very refreshing!
