Rating this new adaptation is not as easy since I enjoyed a couple of episodes, but some others are cringy-bad.
I think the main problem is the different format through which the story is told, since this time it doesn't begin with a police investigation, getting rid of memorable characters, such as Doctor Sofía Capellán, protagonist of the first three seasons. Butterflies don't appear at the moment of the murder either.
On the other hand, this time they develop more complex and interesting topics, such as human trafficking, mental problems and transphobia.
In the first two episodes, the antagonists, played by Luis Felipe Tovar and Arcelia Ramírez respectively, outshine the main characters being two of the best performances by far.
Yalitza Aparicio, Jedet and Catherine Siachoque do a wonderful job as the protagonists of the following three episodes.
Unfortunatelly, I can't say the same of the last three, even though they have a good idea, their execution was not great.
