"Through My Window: Across the Sea" also introduces new characters to the film's universe. Specifically, there's Vera (Andrea Chaparro) and Gregory (Ivan Lapadula), who provide romantic alternatives for both of our main characters.
Unfortunately, it's a ride critics seem unwilling to tail our Spanish Romeo and Juliet through. As of press time, Rotten Tomatoes sports only two reviews for the film, both of them negative, with both Amanda Guarragi of Ready, Set, Cut and Roger Moore of Movie Nation panning the film. Moore is the most forward of the two in his total disdain for the film, stating, "Cheating, bullying, tragedy and 'the long distance romance thing' all play into the absurdly arbitrary and predictable plot."
The "Through My Window" series definitely isn't Netflix's first foray into distributing steamy dramas for streaming. They first dipped their toes into the pool in 2020; the phenomena began with "365 Days," a Polish thriller that did huge numbers for the streamer both domestically and internationally; it became Netflix's first film to be its number one scripted movie-related offering across a spate of two separate sets of days. That resulted in two sequels, "The Next 365 Days" and "365 Days: The Next Day."
