One of the best Miniseries of the year if not the decade, i didn't want it to end, Extremely well Acted, Nicely Produced and flawlessly Directed. An Absolute Must See.

This series is excellent. As a sober addict I have a very discerning eye when it comes to all film and tv addressing addiction. That said this show is excellent.

The characters are real and legitimate examples of how addiction grabs a community with a strangle hold and won't let go.

This is some of the best acting across the board, I've seen for a while Michael deserved his Emmy and Kaitlyn Dever is an excellent breakout star. You will want to CHOKE Richard Sackler by the end. Looses one star because the constant going back and forth in time wears a little thin

In total Purdue made 34 BILLION dollars off of the addiction of the American people.

If they are not the lowest, most disgusting putrid company ever, I don't know what is.

A must watch!

Firstly, this mini series shows the cruel reality of our society. It shows how the Legal Drug Lords aka Pharmaceutical, sell poison to people who suffers from pain. The message is real and clear.

Second, drugs can relieve the pain, but not your soul. It's only temporal and with the time, you will need more and more. The more you take pills, the better for pharmaceutical industries.

Last, this mini series is a must to understand how Pharmaceutical bussines only wants to monetize your pain. They don't care about healing your soul.

Great mini series. Great acting. Real story. A must. Time to wake up and stop the over use of pills.

This series does a great job of showing the complicity of big pharma, FDA and politicians in the opioid crisis.

Many reviewers are not quite getting the point: OxyContin was addictive and the FDA failed to properly test the drug before allowing Purdue to write their own label, basically. Once they started bumping up dosage for counter the totally fake "breakthrough pain" nonsense, it created a whole army of addicts. That led to an increase in crime to obtain opiates, either more Oxy or even heroin.

The series nails Purdue to the floor good and proper. The Sacklers come across as a repugnant family who can't even get on with each other.

The acting is top-notch and the cinematography is also excellent. The timeline jumping around can be a bit confusing if you don't pay attention, but it's nothing too onerous.

All in all, a great watch that tells a shocking story of greed and corruption.

I do not like to watch many dramas, but I knew this would be important.

Ignore the low reviews if you agree Big Pharma is the business of staying in business, even if it means death or addiction.

From Danny Strong to Kaitlyn Dever to Rosario Dawson, this cast is excellent.

The episodes and timelines are confusing to me. That did not discourage me from learning more about the Real Drug War.

The variety of oxycontin victim backgrounds is solid as well.

I hope this show wins awards and informs many of pharmaceutical addiction and death.
