Review of Nada

Nada (2023– )
5/10
Beautiful series with lamentable appearance by De Niro
19 December 2023
This beautifully shot series is funny and great with great performance of Luis Brandoni as a food critic. There are majestic images of Buenos Aires, its river and streets and a great inside shots of a beautiful BA apartment. Ironically, where the series fails is by forcing a Hollywood American actor into the story in order to attract viewers. The great American actor is not funny, is known to play mostly gangsters or criminal settings that have nothing to do with the show's subject matter, is not credible as a New York writer who appears to be very interested in BA but speaks very little or no Spanish and is starting to learn to eat beef. What is worse there is absolutely no acting chemistry between Brandoni and De Niro. At the end, the series appear to make a great effort and propaganda about having DeNiro and it is the producers, director and DeNiro himself who hurt the series the most; specially in the last episode when the two actors joint and collide.
