Proof of this is that its second season has already been confirmed, which will continue these first seven episodes. Bandits, without a doubt a highly recommended series.

It wasn't easy but the Spanish actress did it again. Her interpretation of Lilí is another gift for lovers of good cinema, good series and good theater.

Although it may seem difficult, Ester Expósito once again teleports us to a unique interpretive universe and each scene she stars in is a new poetry, once again exceeding all expectations.

Lilí will be accompanied by a very special group of Bandits. This group of Bandits is headed by Alfonso Dosal. They will face all the necessary obstacles to find the keys they need to reach an ancient treasure related to the Mayan culture.

Will they achieve their goal?

Bandidos is a Mexican heist drama that follows a gang of skilled misfits on a dangerous quest to uncover a long-lost Mayan treasure. The series is packed with action, suspense, and twists, showcasing the dynamics between the characters and their personal motives. With its unique blend of ancient mysteries and modern-day adventure, Bandidos keeps viewers hooked as the gang navigates betrayals, puzzles, and high-stakes challenges in their treasure hunt.

Season 1 The first season introduces a gripping storyline that quickly becomes addictive. The characters are well-written, and the treasure hunt keeps you on the edge of your seat. However, certain parts feel rushed or skipped, which slightly affects the experience. Despite this, it never feels boring and keeps you hooked throughout.

Season 2 The second season takes everything good about the first and makes it even better. The pacing improves, and the story becomes more polished. The characters continue to grow, and the twists become even more engaging, addressing the flaws from the previous season.

Conclusion Bandidos is a highly entertaining series that's perfect for binge-watching. The story is addictive, and the characters and action sequences make it worth your time. However, the history and backstory behind the treasure could have been visually presented in a more captivating way.

If you're new to the treasure-hunt genre, this show will be a fantastic experience. But if you're a seasoned fan of such stories, it might not offer anything groundbreaking. Still, it's an enjoyable series that keeps you entertained till the end.

Highly recommended for those who love action, adventure, and suspense!

It continues to baffle me how people will watch a show dubbed into their own language (mostly native english speakers will do that), and then complain about the "poor" acting. Are you really that dense?

Also, it continues to amaze me how little apprecation people have for other peoples' cultures. Let me break it down for you: Different countries different idiomas, different ways of speaking and acting, and different jokes.

I thought this series was absolutely lovely, it was never meant to be a serious crime series, it was purely meant as comedy. Kind of like many, mány north-american treasure hunting story tries to attain.

The acting was more than fine, if you can just try to get rid of your culural bias for once. You might learn someting and actually be entertained by this little gem. (No pun intended;)

Also: absolutely loved the musical score, many south- and meso-american classics, well done!

The scenery was ofcourse very appealing to look at , I mean, who doesn't like the Caribean??

Except for some negative nancy's who will always give bad reviews to ANY foreign series.

This show exceeded expectations. I cannot begin to understand why it only has a 6.5 (at the time of review) rating. It has the right mix of action, comedy, interesting characters, adventure, and plot twists (though the last one is pretty obvious).

The "mix" is the key here. There have been a lot of similar shows and movies lately that botch this mix. Take "Obliterated" which went over-the-top humor during extremely violent scenes, making it repulsive and offensive to watch. Or the Brad Pitt movie "Bullet Train", which did the very same thing. It is OK to have some jokes here and now during the action, to give a sense of bravado. But the excessive comedy makes it cruel and unwatchable.

This show maintains an appropriate level of suspense, peril, levity, and comedy, that is just...works.

The characters are interesting, the story is engaging, the romances are endearing. Definitely better than a 6.5.
