Wanted: Carlos Ghosn

Keeps you wanting more information keeps the suspense. Not sure in which direction the movie will take and it's jam packed with facts. I loved it! Back and forth here and there. The devotion of his wife, found that very moving.

It's a good solid doc series. Great editing that enables the suspense.

I am not familiar with the story of either Nissan or Renault.so this series was a learning curve for me.

The unfolding of how the escape idea was hatched to its flawless execution is riveting

Juxtaposition of interviews opinions fron many reporters who followed the story IDF Nissan and Renault is interesting

One last comment learned a lot about Japanese judicial system and it's frightening.

It's a slow character building documentary. In some ways you feel leading you to think a certain way. However, that story changes as the documentary moves on. If people are looking for a high actioned thriller don't watch this. It is a character building story with much to learn and speculate about. I guess Carlos has got his wish to be remembered! Weather history plays him out to be a a victim or villain only time will tell. But if you are looking for something to watch and are happy to see the building of a story this I would recommend. Otherwise you might be wasting your time if you want something fast paced.

The title of my review should probably be the title of this documentary. The story, the filming, production and editing is exciting and spot on. The show, for me, falls apart with the far too often interjections by the moronic twit, Richard Quest. His maniacal, high pitched voice, screaming his trade mark ignorant and utterly ridiculous interruptions, totally destroy this show. There is no doubt the Gosns was a fascinating man who actually did turn around Renault and Nissan before he imploded and ran away from everything. It is an amazing tale and well told in this well paced and well made documentary. Except for the lunatic and ridiculous interruptions of the moronic Richard Quest, this is a great show. It's such a shame when the obvious American network interjection of this no talent idiot nearly destroys a great show.

As "Wanted: The Escape of Carols Ghosn" (2023 release from the UK; 4 episodes ranging from 42 to 51 min each) opens, Carols Ghosn faces the camera for a sit-down interview with the film makers, whose first question is about the moment in November, 2018, when the world was shocked to learn that he had been arrested by the Japanese authorities. We then go back to Ghosn's humble beginning at Renault in the mid-90s. At this point we are less than 10 minutes into Episode 1.

Couple of comments: this is the latest from well-regarded British director James Jones ("Chernobyl: The Lost Tapes"). Here he reassesses the steady rise of business rock star Carlos Ghosn, who had turned around 2 major car companies (Renault and Nissan) and at the time of his arrest being the CEO of both companies. One may agree or disagree on what Ghosn had done right or wrong. The question is: is this a worthwhile documentary mini-series? The answer is an unequivocal YES. These 4 episodes just flew by. I must say that the Japanese don't look all that well in these events (the underlying implication being that the Japanese were dreading the possible merger between Renault and Nissan and the likely subsequent loss of a Japanese icon). To the "reviewer" here who rated this mini-series 2/10 because (s)he dislikes Ghosn: this is not a poll whether one likes or dislikes Ghosn! This is supposed to be a review of the underlying documentary mini-series...

"Wanted: The Escape of Carlos Ghosn" started streaming on Apple TV a few days ago. It has gotten near-universal critical acclaim, and is currently rated 88% Certifies Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes for good reason. If you have any interest in the rise and fall of a global business leader, I'd readily suggest you check this out and draw your own conclusion.

There are 3 documentaries on Carlos Ghosn: One by BBC, one by Netflix, and this one by AppleTV. I'm so glad I watched them by the the order: BBC first, then Netflix and AppleTV at last. THe one by BBC is called Carlos Ghosn the Last Flight. It is just one episode. It provoked my interest in him and this event. I wanted know more. The one by Netflix is terriebly done. If I watch it first, I would lost interest in it. That movie is made for French viewers, I think. Many talkings are given in French language. Pluse a lot of Japanese language interviews. It's really hard to follow. Then, finally I watched this series. It dives in much deeper. My opinions were changed by this series. Especially precious is that it interviewed the American savers of Carlos Ghosn. After knowing they didn't get paied by Ghosn, I was shocked. This alone is enough to judge how trustworthy Ghosn is.
