I saw the series a few years ago, i loved it, it was amazing. And when I heard that they were going to make a film about "fresas" time in prison I was excited but what more can they tell about his story?...almost everything was told in the tv series, both of them. How will the film be any different?...I also read the book that the series was based on, and it wa sgreat, but I dont know what else they can do. From the credits it looks like almost all the same people and characters that were in the series are also going to be in the film, arent some dead?....

im just confused!...but still very intriged and excited to see the film adaptation of "El cartel de los sapos"...

anyone else who has seen the series also excited?

I'm also excited and curious to see what this film is going to be like. I think it's going to be condensed version of the series, in a two-hour film. Hopefully it'll include the best parts so it will shine on its own.

where can i get the DVd for this movie? I saw the tv series and loved it!

Yes it's a condensed version of the tv series. It should be good since most of the original cast will come out in it. As for where you can get the DVD, you'll have to wait until it's released in theaters which will be in November. I can't wait!!

No it is a movie and i have been looking for it for a while and still no luck. I want to buy this DVD or see it in the States even if someone found a good "SOURCE" let me know.

Anybody seen the movie yet? It's playing at AMC Theatres this week and I want to know if it's worth seeing now or waiting for the DVD.

I saw it last night and let me tell you, it was awesome! It's without a doubt one of the best movies I've seen all year. I'm going to go see it again.
