Narcos: Mexico

Even though Narcos: Mexico isn't as good as the original Narcos, it's still a pretty good show that's absolutely worth watching! I was skeptical at first because Narcos was so good but I was pleasantly surprised at how well this turned out too. It continues the story about the drug cartels and does such an amazing job at it. It's pretty addicting once you start watching and you get used to the subtitles pretty quick.

As far as the show goes it's fantastic but what really stood out in my opinion was the performance of Joaquín Cosío as "Don Neto" I believe this is one of the best supporting performances in any Netflix series to date! The arc that he goes through and the performance that he turns in cannot be ignored. He is a very talented actor and displays this in every scene he's in! He is the most believeable character in the show shining brightly over an already brilliant cast of actors.

Brings back some of the great pace, acting and dialogue that made the original Narcos so great

I really enjoyed Season 1 and 2. With season 3 it's almost like you're watching some kind of cheap replica and you're wondering if it is actually the same show. Some of the actors are familiar, some of the story seems familiar, but it's just not the same quality as the previous two seasons. The narration is bad, and the episodes in S3 are pretty unwatchable to be honest. It's really a great shame.

Engaging and at times thought provoking amid all the gunfire. I loved the look and feel of the series, the trashy culture and over the top lifestyles. I appreciated the artful use of swearing and the intro montage - a clever trail of cocaine powder on a map outlining the path of cocaine through Mexico. The music is inspired--including the insipid pop songs that accompanies some of the mayhem. You gotta love the track suits that some of the drug lords sport. The acting is top-notch and the grainy footage reminds us the story is vaguely based on real events.
