...there are betrayals on both sides, tensions that build to show shootouts and murders, and corruption inside the Suriname government. Go to Full Review Jae-Ha Kim Jae-Ha Kim (Substack) 07/27/2023
3/4
Two Korean men move to Suriname in the hopes of making some fast money. Their goal is to buy skate for pennies and resell them in South Korea at an inflated price. But when cocaine is found in one of their shipments, both men are arrested and jailed. Go to Full Review William Schwartz HanCinema 03/01/2023
The big problem with "Narco-Saints" is that the project is hollow. There's not really anything to differentiate it from the countless other non-Korean drug shows on streaming these days. Go to Full Review Rohan Naahar The Indian Express 09/16/2022
Narco-Saints is far too derivative and plot-driven to be truly engaging. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 09/10/2022
Narco-Saints doesn’t take itself super-seriously, which, along with its setting, makes for one of the better Korean dramas we’ve seen since Squid Game. Go to Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut 09/09/2022
3.5/5
Come for gory, high-stakes drug trafficking and murder against a tropical backdrop, and that’s exactly what you’ll get. Did you want anything more? Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Timothy L @t.linn Aug 30 Interesting plot but poorly written, poorly acted, and poorly edited. There were times the editing made me feel like I was watching an SNL skit. One character says something dramatic and the editor cuts to every single character in the room giving their best shocked look. If you ended up considering Narco-Saints because you enjoyed Narcos, the two shows are nothing alike. Don't waste your time. See more CHELSEY K @RT41013349 Jun 1 Almost everything what they show about surinam is so in accurate the dutch aint even dutch and they make it look like its the slums in surinam but i never seen most of these places they show. It feels kind of disrespectful how they show surinam. Like i get its an narco serie but come on this gives a wrong type of idea about the country but anyways i would have liked it more if they showed what it really looks like there,but how ever the show is fun not really new but fun to watch. See more E. D @RT02253075 01/07/2024 Excellent show! It is NOT boring at all, predictable and IT IS WELL WORTH IT TO WATCH! Some websites claim the opposite, but do not let them fool you. Once you start to watch it, you may want to watch the whole episodes! See more Mike D @RT31518657 11/19/2023 Captivating!Would be hard to believe if it wasn't actually a true story.Fast moving with good acting and an excellent plot See more aarjun l @RT30754542 03/19/2023 decent but feels like a inferior version to the originial narcos See more john j @RT42799944 09/29/2022 good. you must see it See more Read all reviews
