[Prison Cell 211] does not simply seek to replicate the impact of the original film, but to build its own identity within the genre. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Pramit Chatterjee Digital Mafia Talkies 02/06/2025

[The] cast of Prison Cell 211 is extremely talented (...) I don’t have any complaints against any of the actors; I just hate the writers and the directors for giving them such subpar material. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Daniel M @RT65405953 Apr 13 The show displayed its story with filling moments to help the view understand that life can be short. The actors did great to. I was very convinced See more we travel Y @RT97352157 02/06/2025 I think the constant use of bad words ruins the whole experience while watching it, is just another n4rco series created in Mexico, as Mexican I got tired of the same storyline, and scripts for this series. And is a shame since the original movie was a masterpiece, I think they will create a good adaptation into series, but they don’t. If you want to watch a novela this is the right one for you. The acting tone is at that level. See more Read all reviews
