This based in true events serie is one of the best production coming from Spain this year. The casting and actors are all at their best, most of them I expect to see again in the coming years due to this success. I have to mention the choice of music which is perfect to create the thrill of the story, it gives the right 80s rock, punk and folk atmosphere and social background.

The serie tells the story of narco trafficking in Galicia (north of Spain) in the 80s and how it changed the economy, society and politics. The serie focuses on the families and clans that went from being cigarettes smugglers to become narcos and the consequences of their decisions.

Watch it if you are looking for a thrilling narco story on an unique setting.

This is a good crime thriller that keeps the audience attention until the final scene. I only found myself out of the movie in a couple of scenes that they could have been shorter, for instance when the main actress and her ex husband meet for first time. I think that is the only negative I found in the film, the rest of the scenes are there to move the story towards the conclusion and they do it well.

Overall I was immersed, intrigued and surprised with each of the twists in the story. Watch it if you like crime thrillers.

I wonder what makes people to write a one out of ten rating for this movie. It is not bad at all. I like sci-fi, I enjoy stories with a good twist and with a moral message with hypothetical scientific scenarios. The movie got rhythm and yes probably the action scenes are not the best as those in Marvel movies or other high budget productions, but that's all.

I decided to watch this movie because of amount of 'too' bad and 'too' good reviews, when I see such disparity in ratings I somehow feel attraction. I must say I didn't regret to watch it. Not at all.
