It's really hard to mess up a documentary...it's basically just telling the story as it was as it happened or is happening and don't do too much or too little...and you are goood...
this show is actually good...it does break one of the cardinal rules that applies to documentaries...it does too much...
this was meant to be a movie...or let me say it would have been actualized better as a movie...2hrs 30mins...this story would have been sold very very well...
i do get what they're going for however...i get the artistic choice here...it's a story about individuals at heart...and so we have to understand each individual intimately...it just ends up affecting the quality of the storytelling...
where it does too much is showing us unnecessary bits...we get up with a character drive 2hrs with him and prepare for a meeting attend the meeting and make a speech with a character...it's a great to immerse the audience in the world of the character...but is it really necessary...
i don't even know why I'm using character when it's a documentary...i guess just want to address what i call "the breaking bad syndrome"...what the shows breaking bad and better call saul did...over-indulging the audience...it slows down the plot...
the first episode is very very intriguing...it's an excellent pilot episode...sets the tone and it is full of suspense and tension...the 3rd episode is probably the worst...it's supposed to set up the last episode but it just ends up beating around goes nowhere and just feels like all of it is filler...
watchable...but with alot of fast-forwarding...it's telling a great interesting story though...
