Jenni Rivera: Mariposa de Barrio

I do not speak Spanish, but I binged watch this entire show by reading the subtitles lol. I have a new love for Jenni Rivera after watching! Truly an inspiration. 91 episodes is a lot, but I loved every bit!

Mariposa de barrio is a story or series based on the life of the singer Jeni Rivera, from the same perspective as the family, something that I find interesting and at the same time a little controversial, since we will not know how true or realistic that reality may be.

In my personal opinion, it is a series that attracts women more than men, specifically because of the type of content it has and that often becomes more repetitive drama than anything specific.

Rescuing at the same time that it has some episodes that promise a lot and they only stay at that, because being a series that has a certain argument or concepts related to a character that has a particular market, it will not totally catch everyone who is looking for something more. Or learn a little of its mystery.

I recommend seeing it with a medium or low level of expectation, because although it has many performances I feel that personally I don't get caught up in everything.

I didn't know much about Jenni Rivera or her music before watching this show, I am truly addicted.

I was so excited to see this series anddddd lowkey disappointed. The storyline, setting, and direction was great but honestly the acting of some of these actors is horrible. Too much overacting and reading lines so stale. You will see within the first five minutes when you see Uriel de toro act you will most definitely want to switch the tv off and regret the free moments of life you won't get back! Surprisingly the younger cast is decent but this really is a good show would be great if they spent more money and got real actors. Acting is reading lines but true performance is connecting with the lines.

This story is well played by the actors chosen. I can relate to it to so much as I was also a teen mother in an abusive relationship. Many people might be able to learn a thing or two. I highly recommended. Well done
