Season 1 Review: Showrunner Marco Ramirez and director Gabriel Ripstein often struggle to make the pieces fit into their six-episode package, even if some of them work well individually. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Rather than dig into a gritty realism, “La Máquina” leans toward the loopy and mysterious. .... Andy and Esteban bicker often, and the show is most exciting when the two are ripping into each other. Read full review

Season 1 Review: What remains is a show that works in fits and starts, coming alive when Luna is commanding the screen with his carnivalesque performance, and ebbing when the narrative shifts to Bernal or González’s characters. Read full review

Season 1 Review: As a viewer, I can get past not knowing or understanding the motivations of a mysterious antagonist if the chaos they bring is worth watching. And, to be sure, there is more than one plot twist in this mystery I did not see coming, but those moments are fleeting and shallow. They did little to distract me from a series of unresolved subplots. Read full review

Season 1 Review: They’re surrounded by too many storytelling elements that fail to work for any profundity or chemistry to evolve. La Máquina bursts with energy at the beginning, but in the end it’s just tiring. Read full review
