World's Most Wanted

Way too many unnecessary cut scenes and aerial shots to make these episodes longer. I'm guessing they spent most of their budget filming that trying to fit it all in rather than just give us the information. Interesting cases though so I watched all 5, just could have done without the over production.

I always ask my self who are the world's most wanted criminals. And here is Netflix answering my childhood question!

Very interesting show and well directed episodes.

Netflix have provided another winning crime documentary by Novo Productions. All the most wanted people have their crime biographies on show here. It's a rogues gallery of the drug cartels chiefs; money launderers, terrorists, arms dealers and mafia on show.

Netflix has raised the bar for its docuseries so high, that other decent releases go under the radar. Fortunately for me, I saw the trailer and had immediately saved it in my list because I had seen Don't F*ck with Cats and likes it. It's the same team.

So this isn't as crisp as other series' and I think this is one of those documentary that could've used a little recreation for dramatic effects because the characters they chose to interview .. some of them are little dramatic. Another thing they could've done better is to show us more about the criminal's past life because they choose to pursue all these most wanteds after their hieneous crimes. We are taken through the journey of what they did,how they fled and little bit of how the authorities have been chasing them. This isn't a deep dive into the criminal's mind that we have have a perversion of.

My favourite episode was the last one. You watch it and immediately want to re-watch The Godfather. Unfortunately even that episode was not as fleshed out as it could've been.

These are the complains but for what they've shown and researched it's still a good quarantine watch.

A solid 7.5 out of 10

The serie is not about the most « notorious » criminals but the most wanted and this is the good point of the documentary. Not all episodes are equal (Number 1- Ismael Zambada- is not the more interesting and Number 4- Semion Mogilevich- look like a never-ending coarse trailer), but all of them use a lot of great (and bloody) archival shots and documents how these criminals managed to escape the authorities. The last episode- Matteo Messina Denaro- takes place in the same location (Sicily) all 45 minutes long but keep you on the edge of your seat.
