I love this novela. Starting the first episode I was in shook when Leonardo fiancée was killed while she was pregnant as that was OMG. All this kiss scenes I love between Lisa and Darijo I love them. The only thing I don't like when María José kiss Carla I think that wasn't necessary. The final I loved it we all knew that Victoria was the killer of Julia and Agusto. And I love they got married it felt a happy ending. But Dario wasn't meant to die, he should've killed Eugenio.

One of my favorite novelas ever.

Yeah the plot plus story had its frustrating, ok very, frustrating moments but I loved the chemistry between Andres Palacios and Angelique Boyer. In the end I was only watching for them and their chem when the story went down the toilet haha.They easily became one of my top chemistry filled couples In the novela industry, I'd say they're in my top 2. Andres and Angelique made you feel everything that their characters did, it wasn't hard to believe that they were in love. I'll admit that even when this novela frustrated me it made me feel so many emotions every night and I guess that's another reason I loved it so much. I hadn't felt that way about a novela for years. I still miss IDM even though it ended a while ago.
I've always been a Boyer fan and she made me proud like always. Even when I hated Elisa, I loved her because of Angelique XD. I wasn't really a Palacios fan before this novela but I fell in love with him in this one. He needed a character like Leo to show what he could do and boy did he prove himself. He surprised me with his talent as Leonardo.
Not to mention that Leonardo Velasco was one of Televisas best written male protagonists ever. Too bad that they don't write characters that are more like him. The rest of the cast was also very good in their roles, that's why I give it a high rating.

Giselle Gonzalez needs to be fired and never allowed to produce another telenovela.

Giselle Gonzalez took a superb cast and story and really ruined everything. This novela has been in the top 5 of the novelas I've hated after 30+ years of watching.
I will never bother to even start watching one of her novelas, no matter the cast, or the purposed storyline
A poor version of Black Money Love
jane-mwende6 January 2021
Warning: Spoilers
When I heard that Televisa was doing a remake of Kara Para Ask (Black Money Love), a superb Turkish dezi, I was a bit anxious about how the story would turn out. But so far, I have been disappointed. I understand that the writers tried to make the story their own and contextualize it to Mexico (replacing jewellery trafficking from the Turkish version with trafficking of antique Pre-Hispanic Mexican art) but this adaptation is bad, and cannot stand against the original which was far better in many ways.
One of the things that I noticed is how the interaction between the characters and their implication to the plot has really been watered down here. For instance, the Dario character in the original was an anti-heroine and he proved to be a match for his father, but in this version, the character is not as compelling a match to stand up and take revenge against is father. I also didn't like how some characters have been adapted in this version (Teresa, Piedad). Another thing is the relationship between Leonardo and his brother which doesn't look strong at all here (so that the eventual truth of the betrayal has more impact later on), so sometimes, the viewer is left to fill in gaps in terms of character motives and back stories, and how theier actions affect those around them, especially if you watched the Turkish version. Most importantly, the chemistry between Leonardo and Elisa is not there at all, and cannot be compared with the great love of Elif and Omer in the Turkish version, a love that was believable, made you root for them as the protagonists, and a love that could defeat all odds. In Imperio, the romance does not inspire at all.
I love Giselle Gonzalez because I feel that she is the most creative and daring producer to come out of Televisa in recent years with her different style of story-telling that is raw, almost authentic, non-traditional, and trying to think outside the box (I really loved her previous telenovelas Yo no creo en los hombres, La candidata) but with this one, it is a total miss.
