Señora Acero

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

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.

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 🤦‍♀️

Entertaining drama, draggy and slow though.

Everything could be shot in half the episodes taken, half a season instead.

The good guys always point their guns at the baddies and talk and talk and talk a lot instead of killing them.

Thereafter the baddies escape and in turn start hunting and capturing/abducting/raping the good guys, or killing them... Then, the good guys seek revenge and hunt the bad guys down, AND point their guns at the baddies and lecture at them a lot again instead of shooting and the latter escape again. And the cycles goes in and on.. THAT'S WHY IT'S SO DRAGGY. Haha

Bad acting by a few, especially the villain character Teca Martinez. He cannot act for nuts, too overact, his eyes expressions.

The car chases are the most comical, the vehicles are all moving so slow but they are acting so anxious 😂

I binge watched the show even though I found the violence a bit over the top! Blanca Soto, what an actress! I think the producers struggled after her death because the starting episodes of season 3 are weak and if you're one of the loyal fans, you'll still be mourning Sara until the show picks up again, which it does. Brilliant performances by Jorge Zarate, Michel Duval, and Carolina Miranda, my favourites throughout, besides Sara. All in all I enjoyed the series and I would watch it over and over again if there weren't so many series on Netflix now. Kudos to you Roberto Stopello for creating such an unforgettable show!
