This is the story of the lives of ten friends inside a drug cartel. Their greed for power and money will take them to betray and kill each other pretty soon. What started as a teenage adventure for quick cash will end up in a nightmarish tragedy for all the people involved. The pact that each other sealed at the beginning will be broken as everyone is faced with the decision to kill their own friends or be incarcerated for life!

3.0 out of 5 stars Incomplete Series - It does not have the ending, June 15, 2010

"El Cartel de los Sapos" contains 6 DVD discs, and the picture shown here only says 5. The series which I bought here only contains 28 episodes or chapters, and it is not a complete series. I cannot recommend anyone to buy this version, and I am disappointed to have bought this series. I wonder if anyone knows where to get the complete series, for these copies are of good quality, but as I said, it does not let me see the last episodes (chapters). I just wonder how many episodes (chapters) these great TV series actually have so that if I buy it again, I know what I am buying. I wish I could return the case with all 6 DVD discs and get my money back.

El Cartel de los Sapos contiene 6 discos de DVD, y la foto solo muestra como si tuviera 5. La serie de TV que compré aqui solo contiene 28 capitulos y esto no esta completo. En verdad, no puedo recomendar que la gente compren esta version, y estoy bien arrepentido de haberla comprado. Quiciera saber si alguien sabe donde comprar la serie completa con todos sus capitulos y no esta basura. La calidad de los episodios o capitulos es muy buena, pero me dejaron con el mal gusto en la boca pues no se en que termina la serie. Yo quisiera saber cuantos capitulos o episodios tiene la serie completa y cuantos discos de DVD, pues si fuera a comprar otra version, no quiero que me pase lo mismo. Ojala pudiera devolver todos los 6 discos de DVD y que amazon.com me devolviera mi plata.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome series is hard to get; this is only the first part of the first season, July 5, 2010

I bought this expecting it not to be complete because of the cheap price. I was totally hooked in this excellent series, great acting, great everything. They stop in the middle of a really hot storyline, so I went to elcarteltv and downloaded the conclusion (one chapter). Those chapters showed subtitles which got in the way for me. I don't like reading the lines before someone speaks them, kills the effect. And they are like right in the eye range so you can't avoid them. Thankfully I found the second part of the first season here (its called exactly that) and it is only available used. I paid 3x as much for that but its still cheaper than the few used copies of the complete series with the American name (El Cartel de los Sapos vs. El Cartel). Its totally worth it. Can't wait for the second season.

Cuando lo compre, esperaba que no era la serie completa por el precio tan barata. Me engancharon rapidamente y cuando paro en la mitad, baje el proximo capitulo en elcarteltv. No me gusto verlo asi con los subtitulos, me estorbaban. Aqui encontre la segunda parte de la primera temporada (asi se llama) y nadamas estaba usada por 3x el precio de esta. Pero todavia es mas barata que comprar la completa con el nombre Americano que nadamas esta usada por casi 70 dolares. Tienes que ir a elcarteltv para poder bajar la conclusion de la saga de Revolver.

Excelente novela... Me pegue a ella desde el primer capitulo y no me he podido despegar de ella desde ese momento.. Que agustia (como debe ser una buena historia). Tanto me gusto que ya encargue la 2da parte (Guerra Total) esperando que la historia de Pepe sea tan buena como la de Martin......
