Penoza: The Final Chapter

Loved the series but this movie felt like a bit of a bummer. Farfetched and unnecessary. Acting was reasonable but storyline (if any) sucked. Would have been better for anyone if this had not been made...

Bad acting (apart from Monique Hendrickx), bad recording locations (it's clearly Spain, not Mexico). Dutch actors playing non-Dutch characters. Story quickly made up to make some extra cinema revenues. Whole plot lacks credibility. Left a bitter taste after enjoying the tv-series for a couple of years.

Jezus christ, what did I just watch. Poorly written, bad acting, cheap action. Don't know where to start. Why in the world was this released after such a great series. What a shame. The person who wrote this film should immediatly find another job. The over-the-top action, the extremely bad dialogue, the unrealistic behaviour of charachters. Unbelievable.

Not that I won't keep watching the thing to the very end, but . . .

It starts off as an interesting crime/drugs/thriller/gangsters streamer, BUT, and this is a big BUT - before long it devolves into a totally ridiculous melodrama. By Season 3 you won't believe how many times you hear characters say "I'm sorry" and then screw everything up. No one doesn't screw up or get screwed up.

Grandma has a remarkable hairdo style. Baldy "Berry," - top thug. "Luther"? - Mystery dude with a real "servant with a crush" complex.

Ultimately, it's like a Laurel & Hardy epic - "Well, this is another fine mess you've gotten me into!"

Serious killings and intrigue, but in the back of your mind you'll be chuckling.

I liked the series, but this movie was bad. The writing sucks. It was so unrealistic. It could have been so much better. Only Carmen played her part well.
