The Head of Joaquín Murrieta

I was hooked on this show from the first episode, see now a days is hard to get invested into shows because diversity feels forced this show is different, they aren't worried about diversity because it's a true story about minorities so they focused on realism and they got most think accurately.the plot itself is engaging almost the whole show through, the scenery just like most western show was beautiful and the acting was top notch, the story is follows joaquin murrieta a legendary figure for mexico and an outlaw to America, but includes other cultures that ware around during the gold rush era such as the asian workers, we get to see a lot of native american stories and we even get to see some white people that weren't as bad as others. Can't wait for next season!

Its a great story and the actors are very good the scenarios of Durango Mexico are beautifull i really enjoy seen the Mexican been the good guys And the american been the bad guys. The photografy is really great and the music even do is very difrent from other western its really good. The storyline is like the Robin Hood of mexico. From my point of view the isnt many mexican westerns as good as this one. Amazon did a gret job brining this story to the screen that gives live to an other kind of hero. Thank you to all for tis series i hope every body enjoys the argument place in this proyect. See yo soon. And hope you amazon male the second season.

I'm early in but so far so good. We don't see too many Westerns from the perspective of the Mexicans, portraying the USA as the bad guys, the greedy capitalist invaders that we are. So this should be good, besides I swear the lead who plays Joaquin reminds me of Richard Burton, To my eyes he looks like a twin.

The overall style of the film is very good, it just has a look to it that's easy to view. So cinematography gets some good marks. Sound isn't too overpowering, dialog and music has that updated old spaghetti western feel. Let's see where this goes, I can't see going wrong here given the ingredients we have.

Overall this is a really enjoyable exploration of "Wild Wexico." The story and characters are very interesting. At times, the overly honest brutality and racism depicted make it uncomfortable to watch. However, they do a good job of balancing those aspects so that they add to the story, rather than distract from it.

There are random moments when things turns to absolute crap to unnaturally force wild-west scenarios and/or uber-machismo. There definitely should have been some stronger editing throughout the writing and filming. Still, these moments are rare enough to brush them off.

This is definitely worth a shot for anyone who enjoys westerns.

I wasn't expecting such a well-made and addictive TV series. From photography , music , actors , they seem to combine perfectly.... one of the best westerns since "Deadwood" there are some scenes with extreme violence but very well done ... curiously the character existed in reality , but I could not find out much information.

It could maybe even be a kind of zorro, but more realistic and more authentic.... the characterization of the characters, especially those of the indian tribes, is very well done.. i just don't understand why it wasn't publicized a lot... but it was great congratulations to the actors ,production and direction.
