La disparition de Maddie McCann

It's intriguing at first but it just drags on through every episode. Could've been maybe two or three and it would've been fine

I watched all 8 episodes. If you have a strong interest in the case, then you are more than likely going to watch it regardless. Typical Netflix documentary. Slick titles, quite nicely shot, albeit a lot of repetitive scenes and drone footage of the beach and town.

However, I'm afraid to say that you are not going to learn a lot from it, if you have already followed the story from the outset.

A fairly good watch though, if it's a week before payday and you're skint and you have absolutely nothing else to do.

I was very interested through the first couple of episodes, I knew of this case but had forgotten many details. After the basics are established there's a mountain of speculation, which is often repeated in multiples, and comes from the press, the police, and any number of interviewees with an opinion.

They use a lot of clips from old news and talk show broadcasts from early on in the case, which didn't offer much then and still don't. The press, and interviews with members of it, are heavily featured while also clearly showing how awful they behaved. It spends far too much time on the Portuguese police. They lost any credibility on day one and that keeps getting massively worse thereafter.. The police investigation was laughable, but that doesn't stop the audience from hearing from them. All of this repetition eventually starts feeling like filler and the film unnecessarily long .

The series wraps up mostly focusing on the hired investigators which to me at least was the most interesting part of the film although not offering much of anything in terms of new leads, suspects, or even a direction to follow from here.

Mixed feelings about this. A lot of repetition but the way the scenes were recreate gave me goosebumps. It clarified a lot of a my previous and naive thoughts about the case and it's up to each one of us believing in one of the versions !!

I got my closure watching just first 30 minutes of the show. When you are putting your 3 yr old kids to sleep in separate building alone without any sitter and dine out with friends in a foreign city what do you expect. Predators are lurking everywhere in the world and have very keen eyes. They can snatch your kid in an instant if you are not with them.I put all blame on the parents to put a toddler to sleep alone in an unlocked apartment and doing long dinner so far away. It's like an open invitation to strangers to come take their kids. This is beyond my understanding. My heart cries for beautiful child Madeleine.
