I really enjoyed season 1 of this show. Sure, there was the usual overacting, but several actors turn in a decent performance. There was a lot of action. Season 2 is Weak!! They must have phoned it in because I was very bored. It is too bad.

Mexican First Lady Emillia (Kate del Castillo) wants to divorce her husband, the President, Diego (Erik Hayser). During a brutal argument, Diego falls from the balcony, landing on top of a car and dying. Emillia goes on the run when she realizes she is being accused of her husband's murder. She needs to find the killer and exonerate herself. She winds up in the barrio Tepito, where she is not considered very popular.

Very exciting series with some wonderful performances, particularly by del Castillo in the workhorse role. Lots of great suspense and dramatic scenes as the actual story unfolds, far more complicated than Emillia could ever have imagined.

Emillia has two children; her daughter, Maria (Alicia Jaziz) is gay. I have no problem with that at all, but it was completely unnecessary to the plot. Eréndira Ibarra brings an elegance and coldness to the role of Ana Vargas-West. Both she and Erik Hayser were in the series Sense8. There are many striking performances, particularly from Aida Lopez, Alberto Guerra, and Tamara Mazarraza.

Looking forward to season 2.

I haven't seen the English subtitles, so i am not sure if the few bad reviews are from people who read a poor translation, or just don't get it....but this show is great! The action, the drama, everything! Disagree with the bad acting comment. This show's characters are well developed and multi-faceted. If you like exciting thrillers, especially if you speak Spanish, you will probably love this. Also... this isn't "Mexico trying to be the US." That kind of US exceptionalism perspective is so limited, misguided, and uncultured (sorry)....and appears to be based on a stereotypical viewpoint of how people in Mexico should dress/act. I can say that this show is definitely Mexican, and definitely a fun watch.

First: Good on Netflix for working on decent Spanish shows for the Latino/Spanish language Audience. Second: The general quality if fine. It does feel like a Spanish language "Houes of Cards" / "Narcos" style production. So if you like those, you will probably enjoy this. Third: Ignore the"Overdramatic Cheesy Telenovela" comments. Those comments are by people expecting things to feel like USA English language productions. Apples and Oranges. If speak Spanish fluently, are Latin American or at least know Latin American culture, and have watched sufficient Latin American TV, it presents appropriately for shows of this genre. I suppose the target audience is for Spanish native Latin Americans, not for those watching through USA English style glasses.

Ingobernable is a superior show. It follows a serial format with short seasons that are popular today. I watched two seasons over the course of a couple weeks, and I loved every minute.

The First Lady of Mexico finds herself in the midst of intrigue that is illustrated by the dichotomy of the corrupt and powerful and those who live in fear and fight to be treated with dignity.

The characters are well written and three dimensional. Each episode is fast paced.

There is something about Spanish language production that have really made me a fan. They commit to the story, and go for it.

Kate del Castillo leads the ensemble cast. She was in the Telemundo production of La Reina del Sur, and again delivers a strong performance.

As First Lady, Emília Urquiza, she wants to fight corruption in Mexico that plagues the life of the innocents.

There are twists and turns, heartache, friendships, loyalty and betrayals.

The production values are stunning. Sets include a presidential palace and desperate neighborhoods.

Even if you need subtitles, it's worth watching. I noted there were complaints about the subtitles. Not every sentence spoken in one language translates well to another language, but the subtitles serve the story well.

I only saw the first season, I just won't watch the second. The series reminds me a little of 24, but only a little.

Action and moments of tension are the best. That kept me going.

The worst of all are the very long sex scenes combined with very important action scenes, stupid, and also with a terrible background music.

This ended up convincing me not to see the second season. Unfortunately the action did not seem enough to continue watching.

Ignore the bad reviews! This very well written, directed and cast. This was not shot in Mexico, and I impressed in how well the locations were choose. The acting in really good. The plot is decent and crude. Some pleople will say it's exagerated and unrealistic, but in Mexico worst things are happening. Kudos for Kate del castillo and the makers

Mexican culture is separate from American culture and vastly different but in this series they try too hard to be American, in their style, hairdos, morals, absorption of the narco culture via American influence, what I find about all of this is that it is sad, they have semi assimilated into Americans without questioning anything. That's what this series has made transparently obvious when I watched it. The first lady and president appear to be barbie doll perfect, all the upper echelon Mexicans appear perfect, coiffed and lipsticked to the T, that's not how I remember Mexicans. There's flashes of crowds of Mexicans, and there you see the real Mexico in the crowd. There are too many sex scenes, overdone to adnauseum, they're tiring after a while. There are too many flashbacks throughout the series. It's not necessary, it is just filler. The main characters carry on like Americans, violent,overly dramatic emotional, the characters don't behave pragmatically, rather hysterically all the time. At times it is tedious to watch, cause here we go another flashback, who cares, we've already seen this. If you have nothing better to do with your life watch this series.

Honestly the only reason why foreigners may not like Ingobernable it's because they do not know Mexican history and don't understand the relevance of this show. The references to important historical events, the portrait of the military, the media, and the Mexican government, the re-writing of history, foreign government interference, corruption, greed, the interest of few driving a whole nation, it's all just wonderful. Epigmeo Ibarra did an amazing job here and he couldn't have picked a better lead actress. I like how women are portrait in this show too. For me, this show would be a 10, simply for the speech the president did. The speech was, personally, a cathartic moment I am sure 90% of the mexican population would want to see happening in real life. Everything; the president's speech, the well written characters, the portrait of the reality plus the fictional scenarios that are so extreme yet so believable, the good acting, it all makes the show simply amazing.

The story has the usual melodrama and stereotypes of your regular "telenovela". As such, it highlights the acute class differences in Mexico in a very Manichaean way (the rich are bad, the poor are good) and uses trite ploys like fortuitous lesbian sex for shock value. There are a lot of inexplicable situations, for example, a fugitive First Lady running away in exaggeratedly high-heels with which she can barely walk or the secret service taking all the time in the world to respond to a presidential emergency. There are just too many holes in the logic of the story to make it believable.

All these traits of the decaying soap opera genre would be enough to question Netflix's new quality standards, however, even the production values are lacking and it clearly wasn't a matter of budget but carelessness. There are night scenes where the daylight coming in from the windows is apparent; the blood looks like ketchup; there are continuity glitches; there is a toy airplane taking off that should have been edited out…

In short, I think this show can only be truly appreciated by those who have grown up with - and love - soap operas.

It's better than a lot of reviews state. A bit melodramatic at times but then picks itself up. Language dubbing is better than a lot of foreign language shows/movies. Season 1 was easy to watch and haven't seen 2 yet. It won't go into the all time favourites but it's better than the last few series I've seen in Netflix

The thriller is really good and I can't stop watching the first season

More and more a banal and unrealistic story, for each episode, especially in season two. Constantly unrealistic spontaneous actions with weapons, carried out by people without weapons training. Screaming even when it's not critical. Cinematic effects are used as the make-up of a soup of a story.

I upped the rating to counter the 1 or 2 star voters. The show is genuinely not bad at all. Yes, it's full of holes but then it's a Mexican production; it doesn't have the big budget and experience of more popular series.

I binge-watched the entire 15 episodes of series 1 and enjoyed it. If I have any real criticism at all, it's that E15 didn't "end" / tie up the series. The whole thing left you feeling like it had been cut mid-stream, without an appropriate resolution to the series. That is poor writing/production and, hopefully, S02 won't leave one feeling the same way at the end. It's worth a 6 or 7 out of 10.

Overall the title has good action, drama, corrupt government and all that. But is is a rotten tomato because 5 simple person is beating the system and fighting three different Armies and cartel is not real. Specially a girl (Emillia) she was an X first lady and she is killing right and left everyone who gets in her way. She is defeating the whole Army, Cartel, Government and the show more looks like a Bionic woman. Basically this show is far from being Real, doesn't make sense.

Other than trying to run across town in 9" high heels and constantly making sure her makeup and hair are perfect and her skirt is high enough, I guess the First Lady is reasonably believable as a surgeon. Otherwise this is actually a reasonably decent chase flick. Oops! I mean chase episodic t.v. show not unlike The Fugitive.

Love the story and the scenario and the hero of this series

At the very beginning the TV series gets very interesting. But The story have too much twist. Too much back flash between past and present will confuse the audience. The part that doesn't make any sense that how a simple first lady is beating everyone including government, army, cartel and anyone that comes in front of her. 3 or 4 people against the entire Army! The shows is far away from being real. It just looks like a fantasy world where 3 or 4 people that have super power.
