9/10 stars review ratings from me. Not really a fast pace movie but the build up right from the start is indeed solid and thrilling. it is indeed deep chill thrilling action movie. You can sense the tensions right up till the end of the movie. One of the movies that dont have any prevailing twist. But then again you cant predict the ending I mean if you dont follow any stories of El Chapo ( Real Life). Kudos…

9/10 stars review ratings from me. Not really a fast pace movie but the build up right from the start is indeed solid and thrilling. it is indeed deep chill thrilling action movie. You can sense the tensions right up till the end of the movie. One of the movies that dont have any prevailing twist. But then again you cant predict the ending I mean if you dont follow any stories of El Chapo ( Real Life). Kudos for the two Police Man they really d🙊eliver their character near to perfect and you are with them gripping your seat right up till the end of the movie. Having said all that, the point that I cant give 10/10 is because of the leading actor that plays El Chapo. He didnt deliver the very essence off El Chapo. You just dont feel that you are dealing with the number 1 drug lord at all. He is not plain as a mundane matinee drama and there is no character not auto of a person that call himself El Chapo. Try watching El Chapo the series ... now thats what I call the real El Chapo character.
