La casa de papel (2017)
How many bullets
How many bullets does it take to kill one man? The show is getting ridiculous and cheesy in its 4th season. I made it too far to quit now, but I agree with a previous reviewer about how these characters seem too incompetent to pull off a money heist. I suppose the writers also want you to feel they are good guys sticking it to the government without really wanting to hurt any innocents. Not sure how much longer this can keep up.
El dragón (2019)
Not Bad
Decent Telenovela that will keep you hooked if you are into cartels, corruption, complicated relationships, drama, drugs, lingering shots of facial expressions at ends of conversations, money laundering, murder, rape...all the classic themes!
The best characters in general are the bad guys: Epigmenio, Ángel and Chisca. Chisca does a fantastic job at annoying the audience with her constant mistakes. The scenes of her with Valentín make me cringe. And Jorge with his anxious, fearful, confused, expressions is comical.
Also, it's too convenient that Miguel's intuition doesn't sense something is off with Valentín, Chisca or Jimena.
In spite of the criticisms, it's a good show that will entertain.
