Take this as it is. It's a documentary about the failed, but audacious, attempt at stealing £350m (~$380m) worth of diamonds.

It was big news at the time. I don't think the limited series glorifies crime. It tells an accurate and compelling story.

It's not like your regular documentary, and it's British. So it's unique and compelling. If you have a Netflix subscription it doesn't cost you anything to watch.

Guy Richie is an executive director, and it shows. It's somewhere between a Lock Stock style movie and a fast paced Netflix documentary. It's good fun and the story is smartly weaved together between the robbers and the cops point of view.

Personally I really enjoyed it, and if you're not easily offended (by literally anything), I think you'll enjoy it too, particularly if you're not British (I am British living in Texas). I say that as it's a unique insight into British culture that actual Brits won't appreciate as much.

It's a hard watch, absolutely haunting. One episode in and I'm already struggling. Acting is Oscar worthy. You find yourself torn between compassion for the accused, and the desire for justice. Being British and living in Texas I'm very proud of this production, genuine art in motion.

Some have said this is boring, and as a hater of boring, I can tell you, it's not boring. Every scene carries trauma, emotion, desperation, confusion and love. It's a hodgepodge of horror and hope.

This is not my normal fair, but I found myself transfixed throughout. It doesn't matter if you're an action fan, horror, sci fi, thriller or drama, this show will have you on the edge.

A petulant son of Maximus with mummy issues finds himself in Rome with two over acting emperors, who are literally Anime cartoon characters, to... who knows. Uninspired and entirely boring. Not a thread of emotion, literally not a single redeemable character, least of all the lead, straight out of an improv class.

Watch the original Gladiator again. Every character is so insanely over the top, the emperors are basically frat boys on smack. If you want to make someone unlikable at least make them reasonably believable. These emperors are laughable. The battle are meh, and quite frankly you'll end up not caring who lives or dies.
