El marginal

First, I love series like Prison Break (first two seasons are brutal) or movies like the Spanish Celda 211, so that's why I started to watch El Marginal. First impression was not really good because it looked cheap and amateurish. But men, I was pretty wrong. The show is amazing. Raw, violent, brutal and scary. An Argentinian Prision Break. Second, the acting from characters like Borges brothers, Antin, Sapo or Pantera is excellent. Also series pace and timeline are pretty well executed. To sum up, all 3 seasons are pretty consistent and solid. Even the series sometimes is predictable, the adding of new characters like El Cui in season 2 (my favorite one) make this show a masterpiece for it's budget. So, overall if you're in a lockdown like me, give it a try. You will not regret. Enjoy.

This is an excellent show. If you like prisons shows you must watch this. Is not like prison break another one of my favorites shows because in this one there are almost not good guys. The performance of Nicolás Furtado is perfect, really perfect. For sure i recommend this show.

I watched this due to a recommendation, as I'm not usually interested in prison drama. This is anything but. The characters, plot and script are amazing. As is the acting and direction. I binged the whole 5 seasons in a fortnight, as it's that good. It also has the most unique ending of any series. I'll say nothing more, other that watch this series!

I've watched both seasons of this show, and they are excellent. The setting, a decaying prison in Buenos Aires, is raw and violent. But the characters are what really makes this show. The acting is excellent, and the twisting plot full of betrayal, greed, compassion, corruption. The music is great too. Highly recommended.

Well, the Mexican series as more black humor but it is also a copy of this show. very recommended. probably watch this one before the Mexican version. lots of characters . worth a 8 at least. ------------------------- season 2 as a slight different atmosphere and it is a good thing!

I wonder if season 3 is going to be as solid as 1 n 2 , I really hope so.
