El dragón (2019)
Over the top, yet entertaining
Normally I would give a show like this 6, to max 7 stars, if I would even watch it, because 6-7 stars means boring. This show isn't boring at all though.
To me it's worth 8 stars because it does keep me hooked on (despite some very annoying characters like 'the female chauffeur' (omg: shut up singing and 'being innocent', we get the point) but also the 'strange IT girl' (heavy over the top, if that's what 'strange' means in Mexico: wow... ). The brother is like 'rain man' - almost every character is "over the top" and being a persiflage of someone.
Another annoying thing: every scene lasts abt 2 till 3 minutes, and there are about 10 story-lines crossing eachother and of course connecting with eachother.
Yet .....
It keeps me absolutely hooked on!! The conversations are appearing quite natural to me, constantly there are intriges going on an danger - the drugscriminals look and behave authentic to me as how I immagine these people would behave/ look, without becoming an annoying cliché.
Yes, every evening we watch abt 3 shows and loving it!
Yesterday my husband and I said to eachother: when missing one episode, it's almost impossible to reproduce all the events happend during that episode.
