‘Amo,' to the very depressing end, simply says, ‘This is life, and that’s all I can say about it.' Even before it premiered on Netflix, Amo had gained an unfortunate reputation for being a) detestable, and b) unwatchable. Mendoza makes a pretty strong stance, but that isn’t even what makes the show such a difficult watch. Aside from that, Amo pretty much introduces the second story with barely a goodbye to Joseph and his sad tale. This is why, despite sitting through four hours of Amo, it’s unfair to consider its minute merits.
