What kind of producer would spent money on a seven episode series that delivers nothing. Definitely one of the worst crime series I've ever seen and for sure my lowest rating so far. The problem is not in the acting or photography or even the dialogues.
Any series or filmshould at least have some sort of decent story with a proper beginning, a proper end and events in between that take you from a to b. The whole story and the scenario fail miserably at this. Actually there hardly is any story. There's only a bunch of events and action without any clear final destination where it should all come together. There's some Chinese gang that needs to be financially compensated. Why this is important to the story remains unclear and it only seems an excuses for some robbery. Talking about robberies: there's a whole bunch of them, all carried out by some group of low level gangsters with hardly any brains. Your average shoplifter is probably smarter. The whole series feels like an incoherent pandemonium of scenes going nowhere. The scenario fails miserably at multiple point such as sudden changes from daylight to night within the same car ride. It's shameful.
At episode six I began to wonder at how this could possibly end in an acceptable way in the last (seveenth) episode. It couldn't. The final episode makes it clear that there just isn't a final plot. It's all so poor that the end isn't even an anticlimax, it's just ... anticipated disappointment. Ok, the killer of Estrella has finally been found and killed. That's the only storyline that ends in a decent way. The rest of whatever lines there are, are simply left open, but not in the cliffhanger way.
The series was a total waste of time and effort and its main function is probably to give some young actors screentime. Have a go at it if you like incoherent 'stories'.
