Killer Ratings

Brilliant documentary.... But I still can't decide if he's guilty or not, which shows what a great job the documentary makers made of creating an unbiased program. I'm leaning towards he was innocent, and the Families of the North were responsible..... What do YOU think?

This series puts you in the judges seat. You are given all the evidence or even lack of it so the question is who do you believe. I personally couldn't make my mind up knowing how corrupted the cops are. The series started out quite promising. There was a of footage and interviews from both sides etc but the episodes started to feel very dragged out and even though I watched 5 of the 7 episodes and I wanted to know what happened next I just couldn't bare another dragged out episode. I decided to abandon the series and just go online to find out what happened. I think just because you have hours and hours of footage, it doesn't mean you have to include everything in the final cut.

What a surprise! This documentary was unusually well done: very detailed, mostly unbiased (to my non Brazilian eyes at least) and engaging. Some parts were a bit too long but the pacing was overall good: I really wanted to know more about what happened and the interviews were interesting and not just a boring filler.

I've watched many documentaries and fiction series on violent crimes, police investigation and corrosion. This series is so entertaining and interesting that it has grasped my attention and curiosity more than many fiction series could have done. The story-telling, turnarounds, and different points of view are amazing.

Did the people that wrote Netflix's synopsis even watch the documentary? I had never heard of this case before watching this and I don't think anyone who does watch it can state that this guy was guilty and that he actually ordered the killing of people for ratings or for whatever other purpose. The documentary is well made, if a bit too long, but it is unbiased enough to at least leave you in doubt. Yet, Netflix chose to draw their own conclusions and write a misleading, inacurate and plain dishonest synopsis... all in the name of ratings, I guess.
