A docu about and starring vile horrible people. Dont be fooled, this is not a crime-docu... this is mainly about Fame-thirsty hollywood-wannabes who only thinks about money and want to talk 95% about their wannabe-lives and 5% about their crimes, with the exception perhaps Nick, who actually seem proud of his crimes.
The docu has some sort of pop-style narrative, focusing on it being cool to become a celeb, more than actually focusing on the people actually getting robbed, and the people commiting a number of crimes, without ANY remorse, lying and telling different versions. The remorse coming from Alexis seems more fake than anything else.
It is watchable, though, as a view into the extreme narcissism of these people who honestly should have been put away a LOT LONGER in jail than what they ended up getting. Shameful.

Ok, so it wasn't all that bad that some people think it is. But all the people who gave it 8-10? What do you give the original - 12 out of 10?
This movie COULD have been good but is riddled with the nowadays classic "oh you are a girl, you shouldn't be hunting/doing man-stuff - argh just you wait, I will show you all and kill that predator"-lines that are oh so tiresome, and baaad CGI, weak fighting/action sequences.
It has some beautiful cinematography, ok acting, nice soundtrack/themes but these traits just barely make this watchable.
I found it quite boring, far from suspenseful, and was disappointed.

Soo... the space cowboy bounty-hunter-anime original is one of my absolute favourites of all time, and yes, some parts of this live action remake make me disappointed, some happy.
--- Faye Valentine? Why f-ck up a mysterious sexy con-woman into a whining non-funny latino lesbian boss-girl? To please the LGBT community? To "incluuuuude" everybody so the europeans wouldn't feel left out? Frikkin Ridiculous, as so many other choices of "woke Hollywood". I'm scandinavian and I don'f feel any need whatsoever to change the original characters from asian/black etc.
++ The general style/feeling of the series is ok, albeit not enough "anime"-like, but that could be a deliberate choice by the creators.
The intro is magic, environments colourful and well taken care of, effects ok (not brilliant). First episodes get ok rating.
Verdict: Watchable. Not even close to the original anime.

- Some of the other castings, Vicious was so-so, the general acting talent in the show was not overwhelming...
- Episodes from 5-6 and onward is so d-mn cringy as the wokeness shines.
