Character of Nemo really did a great job ill or not. Ferro as loyal as ever. These 2 characters really raise the bars. All characters really played great.

Lot of exciting thrills every episode

Kind of soapy but watchable
ernestbx28 March 2020
It's a good show if you're willing to put up with a soap like story. The story is unsubstantiated and not supported well. However, It does have a degree of suspense created by murder, cops and drug trafficking. The one annoying thing is the gay acting. The character Carlos needs toning down. It's looks fake. Enough with the the raising of the hand.
Compelling binge watching series
manugw24 March 2019
Nemo is the "Lord" of the Galitian town of Oeste, he has built the biggest narco business under a facade, he is the larger employer, he is the patriarch of a devious family, he is cunning, smart, ruthless and willing to rough people up, make threats, harass and do anything possible to have his way no matter if the problem is a rival thug or a public officer, but he was diagnosed with Alzheimer and his business is on its way to bankruptcy... And now the story unfolds with great character developments, an array of many violent twists and turns as well as sudden and unexpected surprises to compel the viewer to follow the series. Chapters are long, 70 minutes each, the ending looms with an opening set of incidents to go into a second season.
Season 1 is good but Season 2 is AWESOME!

One of my favourite shows.

The main actress and some secondary characters ruined it for me
dyepe29 March 2020
The main storyline and the main character ,Nemo are enough to keep you watching but there are some situations , mostly driven by poorly acted and written characters, that could make you lose interest in the series. If you can ignore them, you'll be rewarded with a gripping story of loyalty, fragility and some decent action/thrill. I still dont understand the casting choice for the main actress, Lara. Everytime she comes on screen , it runs the whole series. Not sure how to explain it but she is annoying to watch. Maybe is her acting, her script, her inconsistent character development. All of the above? It is just painful. I was hoping they would replace her for season 2 but she came back worse. The colombian hit man is horrible. The show has many annoying characters /actors , the casting director did a horrible job at it.
Excellent

Nemo,nemo
zikavanzemaljac24 May 2020
It started very promising, Jose Coronado is just great. I had a feeling that tv show is going to be modern tv novela without unneeded forbidden romances, unwanted children and overwhelming pathetique and other cliches usual for spanish tv shows. But unfortunately that changed about in the middle of 1st season, focus goes away from nemo on other characters and their stories. Finished firts season and left it on the beginning of second. Great costumes, photography and other technical stuff....
Thrilling till the end

Serviceable crime drama with emphasis on melodrama
msghall17 April 2019
Despite its many flaws, this is an enjoyable series. The fine acting of Jose Coronado and Pilar Castro keep things cooking with an underlying intensity that a lesser actor - say Àlex Monner with his hand-on-the-hip ridiculous portrayal of the gay son - could not pull off. The camera work and scenery are top notch, making Galicia the real star of the show. Sure, it all tends to get bogged down by over-seriousness and the soap opera tendencies frustrate, but all in all, an involving series that is perfect for binge watching - if you can last through the too-frequent hand wringing personal dramas that at times threaten to bring the whole thing down. (Docked two points for the last episode which resolves nothing but sets the stage for another season. You feel like you've been cheated; the show's makers should be ashamed.)
10/10 just for Nemo Bandeira

Same but different

I love the cast, the characters drawn, the plot, the scenario. Even though there are numerous plot holes, you still enjoy the show and it keeps you at the edge of your seat at many times. I could barely wait till the next episode at the end of every one.
Alex Monner's Performance As Carlos Ruined This Show For Me
joshuaevanepstein14 August 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I say this as a gay man... It's one thing to be a flamboyant, feminine gay guy, but Alex plays Carlos like a spastic Quasimodo. He is so over-the-top with his attempts to accentuate the gay, he comes off like the Elephant Man, twisting and contorting his body as if being gay is a physical deformity. How the director & producers of this show let his performance stand as they have, is beyond my compression. I'm sure most people thought it was hysterical, but it was degrading & insulting, at least as far as I'm concerned. A solid performance by a competent actor, and I would've given this show an 7. And no, I'm not lightening up.
When S2 is even better than S1!

I have just finished this series and feel very sad it is over. Great characters that you really invest in, with a towering male lead performance as Nemo, supported by his loyal right hand man, Ferro.
The introduction of the Mexicans really ramped up the action and I can highly recommend this to all lovers of good Spanish crime and family drama.

Traisac ruins it all...
svejard22 February 2020
Claudia Traisac's acting is pretty annoying and basic. Overdoing it when there's no need but falling flat when she needs to kick it up a notch. She needs an acting coach on set ASAP. The rest of the cast is incredible and the plot is amazing.
Teleseries with a usual storyline.

Series is not so boring, however it gets slow in some moments with the characters.
Series is made of Family, Drama, Revenge you get everything in the show.
Best characters whom you will like, and watch this entire series are Nemo - Jose Coronado and Ferro - Luis Zahera. These two will be keep you up with the series.

One of the best Spanish series.

it's definetly not a 10
crazvy14 February 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The camera paning is over used, in real life you don't watch events while flying arround on a drone, if you are 15 meters away you become suddenly invisible, dealers don't use "coca" on the phone, the acting of the 3 "girls" of Nemo is cringe to watch, the innocent and perfectly moral Lara ends up taking money, food, housing, sleeps arround enough even she doesn't want a relationship and plans a killing in the end, the twists in the plot are interesting in the beginig but become rapidly unbeliavable, Ferro is excellent.
Extremely entertaining

Light fun, but over-the-top performance by Àlex Monner
PennyIsMine3 May 2023
This is a decent show. Nothing groundbreaking, but the characters and performances are good enough to keep me going from episode to episode. With one glaring exception: Àlex Monner's portrayal of Carlos takes the limp-wristed stereotype and attacks it as if it's beef jerky and he's a starving dog. I'm a member of the LGBT crowd and in my entire life I've neither known personally nor seen a gay man act like Carlos. Never. It's ridiculous, and enough for me to drop my 8 to a 7. If he isn't toned down in the second season, I won't be able to watch. Who signed off on his character? Netflix should be embarrassed. Someone here referred to Carlos as a spasmodic Quasimodo, I believe, and that's spot-on.
Excellent

Great actors, but the story declines.

An over the top Telenovela
qui_j13 February 2019
This is a Telenovela, pure and simple, complete with overacting, continuous drama and its own brand of silliness and improbabilities. The true star of the show is the stunning landscape of Galicia, especially the coastline. The idea is not an original one as something similar was produced for English TV a while back, using the same concept of a crime boss who develops Alzheimers and the fight for his crown. I rated it as a 5/10, because despite its shortcomings, it does tend to keep the viewer engaged, if only to see the next crisis unfolding. There appears to be a second season in the offing, and I think it will have appeal to a select target audience. It will not however, have wider global appeal as the story line is not that outstanding. Watchable but don't take it too seriously!
Season 2: Unfortunately, this is even more ridiculous than season 1!
If I forget my children's name ...

Ferro is the highlight of this series. They couldn't have chosen a better actor for this role. You cannot but admire and 'love' his constant devotion. From the 1st episode to the last one ... pure A Class!
Nemo is powerful as well, main part as the master where his family is concerned, respect to that.
Loved Schon's character as the loyal loving wife despite Nemo's true love for Ada.
Mario Mendoza WoW so handsome... hated his guts, but not for long.
Beautiful actors, scenery and a good twisted plot.
All in all doesn't disappoint.
THE ACTING
jfmcduff1963-655-6297476 May 2021
For the most part all of tge actors and actresses are doing a great job .Especially tge women. The men are decent but Carlos is way too over the top for this to be a cartel movie and it's so so irritating the role is fine but his character is too overbearing .
