World's Most Wanted

A few key interviews but most of the series is all stock video, internet drone shots and suppositions all without any real evidence to support the headlines.

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.

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.

World's Most Wanted is a mini docuseries exploring five of the most wanted criminals in the world- a terrorist, a mafia godfather, a cartel boss to name a few. These are the most dangerous people, coming from different countries and are known to have committed the most horrendous, inconceivable crimes at international levels. They are responsible for thousands of murders and even lakhs in one instance! Highest levels of corruptions, conspiracies, moles being planted in law enforcement agencies, killings of informants- everything appears to have landed straight from a Martin Scorsese movie, albeit this being a reality. Real life pictures and footages of violence and death are shocking, absolutely blood curdling. The FBI, Interpol and many such international law enforcement agencies are after these criminals since decades. What is most disgusting is that aside from Felicien Kabuga- the criminal responsible for Rwandan genocide, all the others are roaming free and we can only hope that justice will be provided to the innocent victims one day.

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.
