A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

LAPD detective Ryan Lopez (Ramon Rodriguez) is the new young buck in the Gang Task Force. Sam Chapel (Terry O'Quinn) leads the task force and his daughter Jessica (Shantel VanSanten) is the assistant D.A. Jessica and Ryan start dating but nobody knows his deep dark secret. He's been the undercover mole for crime lord Javier Acosta (Cliff Curtis). He was the childhood friend to Daniel Acosta (Jay Hernandez) and has essentially been adopted into the family after his father's death. Javier Acosta claims to be transitioning the family into legitimate business. However the drug business keeps pulling the family deeper and deeper. Daniel is trying to be a legal investment banker. Javier's other son Carlos (Reynaldo Gallegos) is a street thug.This is a perfectly fine cops and criminals TV serial. While there isn't anything particularly new, this had a chance of developing into something better. The most important ingredient is the acting talent involved. Ramon Rodriguez is a solid lead. Terry O'Quinn is also pretty good. The best is Cliff Curtis. He has always been a compelling actor. He's not simply an one-dimensional villain. He is the reason that this show is better than the material.

This series gets better every week. Tonight, the series finale, was phenomenal. The first few episodes were good, but as the series progresses, it gets better and better and better. I'm sorry now that I have to wait till the next season to pick up where they left off. Actors are fantastic, and of course, so are the writers. There are some good shows on TV, i.e. the Tbe Black List, Bluebloods, Black Box, Rush, Hawaii 50, Nashville, Revenge, and I am enjoying every single one of them PLUS many more; and I have to say, that Gang Related is up there with the best! Don't LET THEM CANCEL THIS ONE!!!! Too many of the good ones have been canceled, and this one has to stay.

You'd think by now the Nielson system would no longer be used to decide what millions and millions of people watch. Especially if you pay attention to how Youtuber's get famous. Each individual counts, not 1 viewer counts for a million. But with that aside. This show is an amazing very underrated show with tons of suspense, diversity, action,and an amazing story. This show needs to continue so we can see ifthere's an all out war brewing and the outcome if said war happens. Love all the characters and the strong message of family. Great show, I hope it continues. I like how the sibling rivalry may lead to Carlos segregating himself with his own army. Will he defend the family name or create his own? I hope Javier takes out the smug cartel leader. Will Daniel's experience effect the clean life he has ideally wanted? And who knows what will happen when Ryan's luck seems to be getting thinner.

First of all, this show has so many haters, and they are all 50+ old farts that drink a shot of Port with their coffee whilst reading Moby Dick for the 35th time every night just before sleep.. They cannot relate in any way to the show, which is understandable.. The Black & White TV sets they watch it on doesn't show the tone of the Latino's well.. ;) Personally, I think it is well written, well acted and keeps you wanting more.. Anybody that trash talks this show should stick to their Collectors Edition of Schindler's List and that Brad Pitt movie about life.. If you like movies like "Blood In Blood Out, American Me and Colors" you are sure to enjoy this show as much as me.. Waiting eagerly for a 24 episode Season 2 Announcement..
