Para hacer una reseña, no hay fórmula específica; podemos primero ver la película, luego leer y comentar. Podemos comentar, leer y después verla, o podemos hacer todo al mismo tiempo que vamos viendo, leyendo y comentando 🙃 Cualquiera que sea el método elegido, lo importante es traer nuestra apreciación.
No obstante, al tratarse de una obra con la cual crecimos, nos martirizaron en el colegio y que años después no supimos quién mató a quién o algunas decisiones que se tomaron, puedo decir, que fue una decisión difícil en ¿Qué hacer primero? Pues lo hice así: primero vi la serie, luego los review y por último, estoy escribiendo estas líneas.

Hello! Hello!
To make a review, there is no specific formula; we can first watch the movie, then read and comment. We can comment, read and then watch it, or we can do everything at the same time we go watching, reading and commenting 🙃 Whichever method is chosen, the important thing is to bring our appreciation.
However, being a work with which we grew up, we were martyred in school and that years later we did not know who killed whom or some decisions that were made, I can say, it was a difficult decision in What to do first? Well I did it like this: first I watched the series, then the reviews and finally, I am writing these lines.
With the review that @soyunasantacruz did I perfectly understood its narrative because I HAVEN'T READ IT! And it leaves me convinced that even if you haven't, there is no excuse not to see it, because it is a work that does not disappoint. Don't hesitate to download the book, because it's very good 😉. Now, I'm inclined to the excellent review that made the friend @eduardo900613 [Cien años de soledad: una obra de arte audiovisual] Because I share EVERYTHING HE NARNS AND THE CONCLUSION OF: the need for a second season, because I can't live without Macondo! 😊.

Siempre el drama y la polémica va a vender. Quizás "El Gabo", tenía sus razones morales e idealistas de porqué no vender los derechos, pero si fue tan buena "Amor en tiempos de cólera" ¿Por qué no hacer honor a este pueblo con el que crecimos? Menos mal su familia fue más práctica y accedió a regalarnos esta joya.
Yo he leído Cien años de soledad unas 3 veces; primero en el colegio (por obligación), después por curiosidad y una última (inconclusa) por gusto; pronto abriré nuevamente esa página marcada 😉. Lo que quiero decir con esto, es que en mis 3 lecturas, he tenido perspectivas diferentes de lo que pasa en Macondo y con las generaciones Buendía, así que no es descabellado que existan algunos detractores que digan: no se parece a la historia, porque ¡MACONDO SOLO EXISTE EN NUESTRO IDEARIO! Y lo que sería para ti, de ningún modo será para mí. Así que si verás la serie, te recomiendo que no sea con esa perspectiva de que tiene que ser "tan igual a como lo piensa tu inconsciente" porque no lo es.
Más allá de la puesta en escena, que me pareció excelente y de lo que hablaré más adelante, debemos resaltar la importancia y la actualidad de esos problemas que existieron hace cientos de años, según los describía Gabriel García Márquez. Podemos apreciar: las clases sociales, la presencia de la religión, los conflictos por los ideales sin pensar en el costo que se paga, la transformación de los pensamientos de amor por odio, resentimiento, envidia; también apreciamos deslealtades, traiciones, extremismos, locura, gobiernos dictatoriales, sociedades oprimidas, enfermedades sociales, que nos toca preguntarnos ¿Y cuándo llegamos a Macondo?, o peor aún ¡SEGUIMOS EN MACONDO!🤣 ¡Válgame Dios!
Cuando estaba en la secundaria, recuerdo que la historia la catalogaban como "realismo mágico" y me encantó que la serie estuviese llena de esos signos que me imaginaba, pero no sabía como lucían. El que más me impresionaba era Melquiades volviendo de la muerte y los gitanos, así que verlos en escena, fue decir "¡WAO! ASÍ SE VEÍA EN MACONDO 🙂".
Apreciar la peste del insomnio o Rebeca la bella sufriendo de Geofagia (gusto por comer tierra) y ser tratada solo con un brebaje, me hace pensar que esa es la clase de cura que necesitamos sin tanta medicina que nos tiene preso de ellas 🙃.
De igual forma, me causó gracia muchas cosas que no me alcanzarían las letras para hablar de cada una de ellas, pero que hoy serían explicadas desde la ciencia con las leyes de Mendel el "niño con cola de cerdo" o la esquizofrenia de Jose Arcadio el patriarca, pero que eran propias de esa época donde muchas cosas ni nombres tenían y ellos fueron fundadores de muchas cosas.
Lo que rescato de ellos, es la determinación y coraje que tenían para seguir sus ideales y la valentía con que enfrentaban las adversidades; creo que hoy nos falta mucho de "los macondinos". También, el amor que prevaleció porque, con una sociedad en contra, Úrsula y Jose Arcadio, decidieron seguir su amor y su la familia que consiguieron con aquellos que los siguieron, fuera de gobiernos, religiones, tildes políticos o cualquier otra imposición que fue el amor.
Por último, casamiento entre primos, relaciones incestuosas, enamorarse de una niña, la existencia de los burdeles, las pasiones escondidas y todo lo que se puede desatar en nombre del amor, la adivinación, los espíritus, los fenómenos naturales, son cosas propias de la época que hemos ido perdiendo por la industrialización y las redes sociales, pero que fueron bien trabajadas en la obra.

My opinion
Drama and controversy will always sell. Maybe “El Gabo” had his moral and idealistic reasons for not selling the rights, but if “Love in the Time of Cholera” was so good, why not honor the people we grew up with? Thank goodness his family was more practical and agreed to give us this gem.
I have read One Hundred Years of Solitude about 3 times; first at school (out of obligation), then out of curiosity and a last one (unfinished) for pleasure; soon I will open again that page marked 😉. What I mean by this, is that in my 3 readings, I have had different perspectives of what happens in Macondo and with the Buendia generations, so it is not unreasonable that there are some detractors who say: it doesn't resemble history, because MACONDO ONLY EXISTS IN OUR IDEA! And what would be for you, in no way will be for me. So if you will watch the series, I recommend you not to do it with that perspective that it has to be “as the same as your unconscious thinks it is” because it is not.
Beyond the staging, which I thought was excellent and which I will talk about later, we must highlight the importance and timeliness of those problems that existed hundreds of years ago, as described by Gabriel García Márquez. We can appreciate: social classes, the presence of religion, conflicts for ideals without thinking about the cost paid, the transformation of thoughts from love to hate, resentment, envy; we also appreciate disloyalties, betrayals, extremism, madness, dictatorial governments, oppressed societies, social diseases, that make us ask ourselves: When did we get to Macondo, or worse, WE ARE STILL IN MACONDO!🤣 Oh my God!
When I was in high school, I remember that the story was categorized as “magical realism” and I loved that the series was full of those signs that I imagined, but didn't know what they looked like. The one that impressed me the most was Melquiades coming back from the dead and the gypsies, so to see them on stage, was to say “WOW! THAT'S WHAT MACONDO LOOKED LIKE 🙂 “.
Appreciating the plague of insomnia or Rebeca la bella suffering from Geophagia (taste for eating dirt) and being treated only with a concoction, makes me think that's the kind of cure we need without so much medicine that has us imprisoned by them 🙃.
In the same way, I was amused by many things that I would not have enough letters to talk about each one of them, but that today would be explained from science with the laws of Mendel the “pig-tailed boy” or the schizophrenia of Jose Arcadio the patriarch, but that were typical of that time where many things did not even have names and they were founders of many things.
What I rescue from them is the determination and courage they had to follow their ideals and the bravery with which they faced adversities; I believe that today we are missing a lot of “the Macondinos”. Also, the love that prevailed because, with a society against them, Ursula and Jose Arcadio, decided to follow their love and their family that they got with those who followed them, outside of governments, religions, political tildes or any other imposition that was love.
Finally, marriage between cousins, incestuous relationships, falling in love with a girl, the existence of brothels, hidden passions and everything that can be unleashed in the name of love, divination, spirits, natural phenomena, are things of the time that we have been losing to industrialization and social networks, but that were well worked in the work.

Me encantaron los personajes. Amé su fuerza de interpretación, expresiones, así como los diálogos que dieron vida a una historia narrada desde terceros.
¿Los escenarios? Excelentes. No me digan que "no se parece", "que sí se parece", porque así fue creciendo Macondo y así quedó bonito. Es como cuando ves una película que, con un cuchillo, matas a cien o derribas un avión ¿Lo crees? No, pero igual la ves; igual pasa en Macondo, ya que al menos tenemos una referencia de como pudo ser.
Con respecto a si se desvía de la historia original, ni cuenta me di. Yo que he leído el libro, poco me importó el giro que le dieron por ejemplo a José Arcadio nieto, que más allá de ser un bastardo y tirano, no se desarrollaba y aquí le dieron un protagonismo que me sacó las lágrimas y pude entender como un ser oprimido hizo tanto daño a los propios del pueblo. Un personaje que me encantó.
¿Qué no apoyé? Me pareció una burla Rebeca LA BELLA. Mucha inclusión, muchos rasgos que marcar o quizás resaltar una belleza escondida, como lo quieras ver, pero que va, de bella no tenía nada, creo que el personaje no fue escogido como se debía.
Las guerras, lo sanguinarios y violentos que eran, las escenas de sexo explícitas en la serie, forman parte del caribe y todo tal cual como se vivía en esa época ¿No querían similitud? Bueno, la serie la cumple a la perfección.
Yo la recomiendo 10/10, quedé complacida con todo lo que vi y cuando faltaban 10 minutos yo dije: pero ya va, esto no termina así y cuando me di cuenta de que había una segunda parte, espero que Netflix tome la consideración y no nos deje con esa materia inconclusa 💯.

From the series
I loved the characters. I loved their strength of interpretation, expressions, as well as the dialogues that brought to life a story told from third parties.
The scenery? Excellent. Don't tell me that “it doesn't look like it”, “it does”, because that's how Macondo grew and that's how it was beautiful. It's like when you see a movie where, with a knife, you kill a hundred people or shoot down a plane, do you believe it? No, but you see it anyway; the same happens in Macondo, since at least we have a reference of how it could have been.
As to whether it deviates from the original story, I didn't even notice. Having read the book, I didn't mind the twist they gave to José Arcadio nieto, for example, who beyond being a bastard and tyrant, was not developed and here they gave him a leading role that brought tears to my eyes and I could understand how an oppressed being did so much harm to his own people. A character that I loved.
What didn't I support? I found Rebecca THE BEAUTIFUL mockery. A lot of inclusion, many features to mark or perhaps highlight a hidden beauty, however you want to see it, but it was not beautiful at all, I think the character was not chosen as it should be.
The wars, how bloodthirsty and violent they were, the explicit sex scenes in the series, are part of the Caribbean and everything as it was lived in that era. Well, the series fulfills it to perfection.
I recommend it 10/10, I was pleased with everything I saw and when there were 10 minutes left I said: but it's going, this does not end like that and when I realized that there was a second part, I hope Netflix takes the consideration and not leave us with that unfinished matter 💯.

Agradecido a ti por motivarme a verla y coincidir con tal opinión 🤗.
I haven't seen the One Hundred Years of Solitude series, but your review makes me want to. It's fascinating how you manage to connect the story of the book with current issues, and that mix of magical realism with modern narrative sounds very promising.
See it then, it's very good... And I'm glad my review has inspired you.... I look forward to your opinion over here Cheers and thanks for the comment.
