Narcos

Is anybody else watching Narcos on Netflix? I’m five episodes in and loving it. The English dialogue—and the actors stuck with it—aren’t great. But everything that happens in Spanish is great. It’s blatantly modeled on Goodfellas, but with a sick twist: whereas most mobs would have executed Pablo Escobar down early in his career to prevent trouble, the Columbian cartels let him keep killing. Wagner Moura puts in a great performance as a likable psychopath who orders executions, mass murders, and terrorism the way most people order takeout. Definitely some good summer TV.
