Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/26/24 Full Review Mauricio A Al ver la primera temporada de 'Reina Cleopatra', me quedé bastante decepcionado con la falta de precisión histórica. La serie, aunque visualmente atractiva y con una producción impresionante, juega libremente con los hechos, alterando significativamente la historia de una de las figuras más emblemáticas del mundo antiguo. Cleopatra es retratada de una manera que a menudo se siente más como un personaje de ficción que como la monarca carismática y políticamente astuta que realmente fue. Desde relaciones exageradas hasta eventos que parecen más mitológicos que históricos, la serie sacrifica la autenticidad por el drama. Además, la actuación de la protagonista exacerbó estos problemas. Me sorprendió el nivel de desempeño de la actriz que interpretó a Cleopatra, carente de la profundidad y la complejidad necesarias para dar vida a una figura tan multifacética y poderosa. Su interpretación se sintió plana y unidimensional, lejos del carisma y la astucia política que definieron a la verdadera Cleopatra. Este déficit de profesionalismo en su actuación contribuyó a una experiencia global que no solo desvirtúa el carácter histórico sino que también resta credibilidad y autenticidad a la serie. Fue decepcionante ver cómo un personaje con tanto potencial histórico y dramático fue minimizado por una actuación que no logró captar ni transmitir la esencia de la legendaria reina de Egipto Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/08/24 Full Review Azizkhuja T Netflix's miniseries "Queen Cleopatra" attempts to delve into the complex history of one of Egypt's most iconic figures, Cleopatra VII of the Ptolemaic dynasty, a ruler of Macedonian descent who governed Egypt from 51 BC until her tragic demise in 30 BC. Despite the rich historical tapestry at its disposal, the series tragically misses the mark on nearly all fronts, offering an experience that is both underwhelming and disorienting. First and foremost, the series suffers from a profound deficiency in quality acting and production values. The performances across the board are lackluster and fail to convey the depth or the gravitas of the historical figures they represent. This is compounded by production choices that leave much to be desired, rendering the whole experience as jarringly inauthentic and cheap. One would expect a documentary or docudrama to enlighten and educate, intertwining entertainment with factual accuracy and insightful analysis. However, "Queen Cleopatra" falls short of these basic criteria. The narrative feels disjointed, and the portrayal of Cleopatra herself is so far removed from historical accounts that it's hard to reconcile the series' character with the storied queen known from antiquity. A glaring issue with the series is its apparent lack of consultation with or input from historical experts. The few insights that are provided come off as dubious at best, stripping away any semblance of educational value. Instead of a vivid reenactment of Cleopatra's fascinating life and her political acumen, viewers are subjected to a rendition that is as dull as it is uninspiring. In what could have been a thrilling and illuminating exploration of Cleopatra's reign—highlighting her diplomatic skills, her strategic marriages to Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, and her efforts to defend Egypt from Roman imperial ambitions—the series instead opts for a monotonous and unengaging presentation. This not only does a disservice to Cleopatra's legacy but also to the audience, who are denied a genuinely compelling insight into one of history's most intriguing figures. Spending a few hours on a lackluster production such as "Queen Cleopatra" on a dreary Sunday evening proved to be an exercise in futility. The series is a testament to a squandered opportunity to revitalize the narrative of an ancient queen whose life was marked by drama, intelligence, and resilience. Potential viewers would be well-advised to steer clear of this disappointingly inadequate portrayal and seek out more accurate and engaging resources to appreciate the true story of Cleopatra VII.
