Bandidos

It wasn't easy but the Spanish actress did it again. Her interpretation of Lilí is another gift for lovers of good cinema, good series and good theater.

Although it may seem difficult, Ester Expósito once again teleports us to a unique interpretive universe and each scene she stars in is a new poetry, once again exceeding all expectations.

Lilí will be accompanied by a very special group of Bandits. This group of Bandits is headed by Alfonso Dosal. They will face all the necessary obstacles to find the keys they need to reach an ancient treasure related to the Mayan culture.

Will they achieve their goal?

If you like fun and different series, you will love Bandidos. If you enjoyed historical titles like Ocean's Eleven or Indiana Jones, this new Netflix production will surely not leave you indifferent. Are you a fan of Ester Expósito? Well then, this will surely quickly become your favorite series. Together with the great Alfonso Dosal, she will fight to obtain the most precious treasure, on a path full of surprises and crazy situations. Without a doubt, one of the revelations of this year 2024, which everyone is talking about. Proof of this is that its second season has already been confirmed, which will continue these first seven episodes. Bandits, without a doubt a highly recommended series.

Bandidos, the new Netflix series that premiered in March 2024, is a wild ride through the Mayan Riviera. It follows Miguel, a charming hustler, who assembles a ragtag team of specialists to recover the legendary treasure of the Snake King. While the series boasts some fun action sequences and a charismatic cast, it stumbles with underdeveloped plot elements and pacing issues.

The show's strength lies in its ensemble. Alfonso Dosal shines as Miguel, bringing a roguish charisma that keeps you invested. The rest of the crew provide a good mix of humor and skills. The action sequences, though not overly plentiful, are well-choreographed and exciting. The camerawork adds a dynamic energy to the fight scenes and chases.

The treasure hunt itself feels a bit underdeveloped. The series spends more time establishing the characters than building suspense around the puzzles and dangers they face. The lore of the Mayan treasure feels teased but not fully explored. The series struggles with pacing at times. Certain episodes meander, while others rush through plot points. This inconsistency can leave viewers feeling disengaged.

The production value of Bandidos is solid. The cinematography captures the beauty of the Mayan Riviera, and the score effectively blends action-thriller elements with a touch of Latin flair.

Bandidos is a fun, albeit uneven, adventure. If you're looking for a light-hearted treasure hunt with a charming cast, you might enjoy this series. However, those seeking a more suspenseful and intricately plotted adventure may be left wanting.

It's a breezy weekend watch, but not a treasure trove of storytelling.

It continues to baffle me how people will watch a show dubbed into their own language (mostly native english speakers will do that), and then complain about the "poor" acting. Are you really that dense?

Also, it continues to amaze me how little apprecation people have for other peoples' cultures. Let me break it down for you: Different countries different idiomas, different ways of speaking and acting, and different jokes.

I thought this series was absolutely lovely, it was never meant to be a serious crime series, it was purely meant as comedy. Kind of like many, mány north-american treasure hunting story tries to attain.

The acting was more than fine, if you can just try to get rid of your culural bias for once. You might learn someting and actually be entertained by this little gem. (No pun intended;)

Also: absolutely loved the musical score, many south- and meso-american classics, well done!

The scenery was ofcourse very appealing to look at , I mean, who doesn't like the Caribean??

Except for some negative nancy's who will always give bad reviews to ANY foreign series.

I loved Ester in Elite and her recent film last year, she's only 24 years old and she's becoming such a promising actress! The storyline for me is brilliant, love treasure hunting series outer banks that kind of thing, really hope they renew this for a second season!

They all did an amazing job the actors and actresses, so many twists and turns, good amount of action and there's room to develop a second season for sure.

It wasn't corny like most of these attempted tv series in this category, just straight up action packed fun from the get go, if you want a really good series to watch, I recommend this, also if you don't speak fluent Spanish like me watch it dubbed in your own language.
