it's like Narcos but worse
1 July 2017 | by See all my reviews

And Narcos wasn't even that good. The acting sucked, script was barely better than a Brazilian soap opera, and it featured this new, romanticized, version of drug kingpins, which to be fair is one of the two ways to be internationally known in Latin America, it's either that or be a communist leader who overthrew a corrupt government by Guerilla warfare, you know, like that other Netflix show. But i guess it's better than nothing, right?

Anyway, ideology aside, the show was objectively bad.
