Bad script, and all production values....hmmmm? Some actors are so so lame!!! TV Azteca school of acting? Ouchhhhhhh.........some actors are good and make the whole production not vomitable, but when they put together two ladies that have obvious plastic surgeries and still are so natural....no, that's not Televisa.... Sebastian Martinez and Rosario's actress are very good, looking and respecting bad direction.......otherwise.....( just watched a few 3rd season episodes. Also Aurora's actress is a good , fine artist, but the mix of good and super bad , hmmmmm. Hmmmm.....and more Hmmmmmm. Not recommended.

Disgusting script, overrated production and performance of Barbara de Regil is like throwing up and swallowing your own vomit while they make you an enema and empty in your face

A multifaceted epic with stunning performances all around. A classic tragedy set in the shifting sands of the Narco wars, revealing a web-like entanglement that spreads from a poor family in El Barrio to a falsely protective, naive upper middle-class family that ignores the crime that surrounds them until it's too late.
Studies of choices in stupidity and infidelity reveal a cascade of events that engulf the 'elite' in a downward spiral until the separate societies; struggling poor and sheltered rich, become leveled in a Shakespearean-like tragedy where all resemblance of former lives are consumed and changed forever. The criminal intrigues pollute the loyalties of both sides which fray and disintegrate into tragic consequences.
Enmeshed within this tale is a love triangle, thankfully minus the obligatory menage-a-trois scene but a fatal love triangle nonetheless. The sympathetic victim-becomes-hero protagonista is an all consuming force-of-nature that along the way pulls all the strings, calls the the shots - no pun intended. Character development on steroids; occasional gore but only in microseconds; intimacy without any frontal nudity. Not a 'fun' film but a shared experience of people's inhumanity to each other amid the compulsion of lust and the passion of love that survives and even flourishes within this striated and fragmented world. Great directing, only a few plot flaws but acting at the highest pinnacle; highly recommended.

There are a few versions of this show around; IMO THEE Best is the one
featuring Mexican actress Barbara de Regil, who again IMO, has the best
Abs in the Biz (check out her Insta. page pics and see for yourself.)
Story is of a poor girl who grows up in the crime ridden Barrio and after a wild start becomes a 'hitwoman' for Drug Cartel bosses and who can kick major butt and is the fastest gun around. There are two series available in the US and the third is running on Mexican TV right now - watch for it in 2021.
Of course Rosario falls for the wrong guys time and time again, and she may even want to quit - but once in, there is no turning back, right?
You will find out PDQ in episode one, series one, where Rosario gets the name "Tijeras" (scissors) - let's just say, don't mess with Rosie. Ever. By the time you've watched about 120 episodes - you will be ready and waiting for the third series; the very end of series two - is a showstopper.
