"I loved this novela when I was younger... and when I found out that I could buy the DVD set I was ecstatic. But when you buy this much shorter version, you lose a lot of detail. I decided to surf the net and I found a great website "Novelas R Us" that contains the complete novelas. I just bought Corazon Salvaje (on 20 DVDs) and am going to buy this one (on 19 DVDs). The best thing about it is that they are only 65 dollars each (considering that you get only a few hours for 20 bucks). I can't wait to receive it.
Although, some people prefer the shorter versions, I like the longer ones because of the details that are missed in the shorter ones. This novela should be enjoyed in detail and I am certainly going to shop for other favorite novelas of mine."

"La Usurpadora was a good novela, but it was edited too much. Gaby Spanic is excellent! She plays twin sisters, one good, the other bad. Fernando Colunga , Chantal Andere, Arturo Peniche are worth watching also. The story was cut up so badly, now all I want is to see the complete novela! Plus, there's no subtitles at all. Therefore, this is not a classic DVD, but it is a classic novela. I feel I would not recommend it, it's been hacked to pieces! And no subtitles! I want complete novelas!"
VERY UNFAIR ABOUT USURPADORA

"This is a story about two women who are identical and meet each other, without knowing that they are twins. Paola comes from a wealthy family and is married to Carlos Daniel, but she isn't loyal to him and devises a scheme to force her mirror image, Paulina, to impersonate her for a year (while she goes off to travel with her lover). Paulina does her lookalike's family good; she rescues the family's factory and cures Abuela Piedad from alcoholism, but she is later discovered. When Paola returns, Paulina will have to face the consequences. It has no subtitles."
