The Snitch Cartel: Origins is a gripping new Netflix drama series that takes viewers on an intense journey through the Colombian drug underworld. The show is a prequel to the hugely popular series El Cartel de los Sapos and is set in the 1990s. The show stars Laura Rodriguez, Ana Maria Perez, Angelica Blandon, and a host of other talented actors.

The Snitch Cartel: Origins tells the story of two young men, Martin and Pepe, who are at the heart of a cartel that is taking over the drug trade in Colombia. The two men are childhood friends who grew up together in a poor neighborhood in Cali. When Martin discovers that Pepe is involved in the drug trade, he decides to join him, thinking it will be a way for them to escape their impoverished circumstances.

As they become more deeply involved in the cartel's operations, Martin and Pepe discover that the drug trade is much more complicated and dangerous than they ever imagined. They must navigate a treacherous world of rival factions, corrupt police, and devious politicians, all while keeping their own heads above water.

The show is a thrilling, action-packed drama that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats from start to finish. The tension is palpable as Martin and Pepe struggle to stay alive and protect their interests in a world that seems determined to destroy them. The show also offers a fascinating glimpse into the inner workings of the drug trade, showcasing the intricate hierarchies and violent rivalries that underpin the industry.

One of the great strengths of The Snitch Cartel: Origins is its excellent cast. The actors bring depth and nuance to their roles, making the characters feel real and three-dimensional. Laura Rodriguez is particularly impressive as Claudia, a young woman who becomes involved with Martin and Pepe's cartel. Her performance is mesmerizing, capturing both the vulnerability and the strength of her character.

Another standout performance comes from Ana Maria Perez, who plays the ruthless politician Lina Maria. Perez exudes power and authority in every scene, making Lina Maria a formidable opponent for Martin and Pepe. Angelica Blandon also delivers a solid performance as Yennifer, a member of another cartel who becomes entangled with Martin and Pepe's operations.

The show's production values are also noteworthy. The cinematography is stunning, capturing the gritty, neon-lit atmosphere of 90s Colombia with flair. The show also benefits from an excellent soundtrack, featuring a range of Latin music that sets the mood perfectly.

While The Snitch Cartel: Origins is a compelling and entertaining show, it is also a sobering portrayal of the human cost of the drug trade. The violence and corruption depicted in the show are distressingly real, and the characters' struggles feel urgent and meaningful. The show does not shy away from the brutal realities of the drug trade, and viewers are left with a clear sense of the devastation it can wreak on communities and individuals alike.

Overall, The Snitch Cartel: Origins is a must-watch for fans of crime dramas and anyone interested in the inner workings of the drug trade. The show is an excellent addition to Netflix's growing collection of international dramas and is sure to leave a lasting impression on viewers.
