    It hard to "just say no" to this absorbing series. [26 Nov - 9 Dec 2018, p.9]

    It’s really Luna and Peña’s show, and even though they very rarely share the screen together, the pairing makes for a dynamic one. ... The actors do what they can with the tropes they’re handed, but Narcos is not the show to watch if you’re looking for female characters with any real agency.

    Both Peña (crisp, lean, and authoritative), and Luna are fine actors, of course. But the Narcos formula hems them both in here, leaving them playing men either too one-note in the perpetually pissed-off Kiki’s case, or wanly inconsistent in Félix’s. ... As ever, the narration fills in the gaps and drops klutzy exposition with seen-it-all, wiseass gringo perspective. It helps that, in Narcos: Mexico, it’s the effortlessly charismatic Scoot McNairy.
