Los gringo hunters

Exciting new Mexican crime series developing characters as the action moves at a rapid pace, following a special force unit who track down hard criminals, mostly Americans (them gringos) who jumped over the border to avoid prosecution from their country and hide out in Tijuana. The makers of this series are also not afraid to tackle issues in their own backyard - mainly corruption - as a local billionaire wants to turn Tijuana into a Los Vegas with the help of some wealthy yanks. Hard hitting without the over-the-top telenovela dross (but it does come close in certain parts), and also fascinating to see what is occurring on the other side of that imaginary Wall...

This is not at all as good as Narcos. The narrative is confusing and chaotic. Scenes are randomly strung together so that viewer continuity becomes impossible. While the story might be a good one, the narrative is so confusing that the plot is really never clear. The audio track is also very poor, and the Spanish dialog is hard to hear. It's really not a great series.

After Narcos, it had been a long time since I watched a Mexican series that truly captivated me like this. Gringo Hunters is absolutely exceptional. The storytelling is sharp and intense, and every single performance is nothing short of impressive. Each actor fully embodies their character, creating a gripping atmosphere that keeps you on the edge of your seat from the very first episode to the last.

It's rare to find a show where the writing, direction, and acting all align so perfectly, but this one delivers on all fronts. Every detail feels deliberate, the tension is masterfully built, and the emotional depth of the characters makes it impossible to look away.

Five stars feel like too little for what this series achieves. I sincerely hope they continue with more seasons, because this is a story and a cast that deserve to go even further. Truly one of the best shows I've seen in years, highly, highly recommended.

5 August 2025. It is a excellent series with a talented Mexican cast. It's about time to see U. S American born criminals who escape the law and flee to other countries and how they live and survive. Usually, there are films or t.v shows about foreigners sneaking into U. S. A. I hope this series get renewed for at least 3 more years. Two Thumbs up.

Forced scenarios. Highly trained professional team that comes off as untrained, unprofessional and many times incompetent. The autistic lady can hunt down criminals with a few key strokes and intense staring at the computer screen, amazing talent. The go into shootouts with back ups or body armor, we'll trained right... The screen writer's must be high school drama students. The dialog is nonsensical and not anything real law enforcement professionals would say.
