El Rey: Vicente Fernández

The story... 10/10 what a story Musicality ambiance (especially in later episodes with adult Vicente and some by young adjust Vicente are worth watching. 8 10 Delivery of the story 6 /10 ( constant back and forth lost points Actors 8/10 but main caractors in later part of movie are very believable and charismatic.. Some Good laughs and some tears as well.

Quality of early recordings (way too much reverb to try and make kids sound good 4/10 Older performers. Sound was good. 8/10 The intrigues and constant struggles are excelente to watch and can provide life lessons than even a middle aged business man like me is taking notice. The dealing with aggressive gossip news, competitors sabotaging deals etc... Stick with it past the clunky timeline and get to young adult Vicente and then adult Vicente.. Love love the character of adult Vicente... So charismatic, and the voice is much better. As a non latino French Canadian, I love his voice although I realize the true "El Rey" was incomparable.

The pace Of the movie is very relaxing with constantly good music. Lots of hardship and challenges he had to go through. This series is an absolute life lesson that shows perseverance most be shown when you truly want something.

I disagree with the negative review. I thought the series was beautifully presented. The music and singing was absolutely incredible and I loved it so much, I told all my family and friends to watch it. I was glued to the set until its conclusion. I loved Jamie Camil's performance and Sebastian Dante's the most. Both wonderful actors who depicted Vincente Fernandez perfectly. I also loved Marcela Guirado's performance. I was left with the impression that this man had one of the most difficult lives and yet against all odds, he was very pure of heart, loved his family and friends and put others first. What a great man! But behind every great man, is a great woman and his wife must have been very proud of him. I am a huge fan of Alejandro Fernandez and love his voice as well as his father's. Growing up with my own father being a Mexican singer, this movie was very special to me and I will want to watch it again. I hope these actors will win awards for their excellent work. Bravo El Rey!!! Julia Pereyra.

As a longtime Vicente Fernández Gomez fan, I was happy to see this series was released! My mom and I enjoyed his movies over the many decades. I wish she were still here to enjoy it with me.

His music is still relevant today and can be heard played in many places.

The series is a good look into the struggles, hardships and tragedies the family faced

The cast was great, I enjoyed the performances! Good to see many new faces and a few familiar ones.

Is it perfect, no, but what can be perfect when depicting a bigger than life star?

I appreciate the effort and enjoyed the series. Thank you Netflix.

My main issue is that the time sequence is off. In 1966 Vicente marries Cuca, then flash forward to 1976 and Vivente and Cuca have a teenaged son. How did that happen. In a span of 10 years? Also, going from the younger Vicente to the older Vicente ages him like crazy. He literally goes from looking 25 to late 40's in a 10 year time span. I'm so annoyed with the time lapses, they make no sense.

I was never a Vicente Fernandez fan, but I did appreciate his music. I always thought he had too much machismo and the series paints him in a different light. I hope that is not part of the creative license that Netflix took. I am almost done with the series and spent so much time googling if event actually took place. I'll just enjoy it as a piece of fictional art based on his life. The time thing, however makes the production company look unprofessional. 🙁

I love this movie!!!!! The story is intriguing! The cast w)as great!!!!! The very first episode had me hooked!!!! He suffered a lot of tragedies, but he persevered! He was an amazing singer!!!!! The score was so good! My favorite songs were el rey del monte and volver, volver, volver! An icon of Mexican rancheras!!!!! One of Mexico greatest musical legends!!!!! I'm proud to be a chicana!!!!! My father was a proud Mexican from Guanajuato!!!!! He listened to Vicente Fernandez every single day!!!!! Because of my dad, I know many of Chentes songs by memory!!!!! I've always loved his music and some of his movies were pretty good too!!!!! He paired to film a movie with Angelica Maria°° I lived it because Angelica Maria was my moms favorite Mexican woman singer and actress!!!!!
