Lady of Steel

Mexican Star/Model/Producer, 5ft 10ins Blanca Soto headlines this gripping series about the Drug Cartels in Mexico, and I learned (perhaps more than I ever wanted to) about the inhuman culture and thought processes of the Kingpins and their Cartel members.

Example(s): Don't get married, other Cartels will kidnap your wife, ditto with your kids or even a full time girlfriend; whatever your weak spot is, the Cartels will exploit it - so stay in the Ranch House, just like a gang - drink and rent girls as and when. No problemo. Loyalty is an absolute, step out of line and you're dead. Simple.

At times overly violent and bloody, Blanca gives a great performance becoming the Lady Boss after an unfortunate event, and whatever the men can do, she'll show that she can do it better and more profitable.

Long series, about 170 odd episodes and you'll need to use the CC at times, although a lot of English is also used. So sit back, enjoy the wild and bullet-ridden ride; they don't make them like this anymore.

IF you liked this Telenovela, check out 'The Mafia Dolls' (Las Munecas de la Mafia) next. Just as good with a different twist.

Some of the worse acting I've seen from any country. However, it written well. So I'll suffer through the end.

Characters like Salvador,Rooster,Tuti and Amaro Indio pulled the show. Almost all the women characters were blabber mouths and the woman of steel is no metal but feather. Making faces,swearing and oft repeated swearings were predictable. I think with the 3rd season they should have stopped. La Coyote was no better than the woman of steel. The whole screenplay was corny.

I love watching foreign language films and shows Chinese, Japanese, South Korean, French etc. I started watching Señora Acero at the start of the year got hooked on it from drama to violence and crime everything a show or film needs to be enjoyable!. Blanca Soto is a amazing actress one in which I will be keeping an eye out for in the future.

Don't get me wrong there are issues with the show for one its hard to find episodes that are English subbed I live in Ireland so going onto the Telemundo is out of the option because I'm not in Mexico or America and their YouTube channel does not have all the full episodes so you miss a lot of what happens and not all the episodes are subbed and a few that are not subbed properly!! which is FRUSTRATING!!. Even their DVD's can be hard to find and they're not subbed either I understand some Spanish not a lot. Even with these issues I love it I hope they will get there act together and realize they are missing an opportunity to broadcast it worldwide for millions more to view because not everyone understands Spanish but they still enjoy watching Foreign films subtitled and this is one of the best crime drama television shows I have seen.

I live in Canadá and I took the time to watch with Blanco Sota but that tuti is disgusting! Annoying so I quit watching it! Terrible how she got killed at the end that's why I watched it and took time to read it. You can have annoying Tuti I fast forward it when she comes on. She should have been taken off not Blanco Sota so annoying Screechy voice and all.

You tried to make a brand new show by killing all the old actors smh 🤦‍♀️
