Amir S 11/17/2024 Interesting and witty series, recommend watching. See more Xomi F 01/03/2024 Just as fun as How to Become a Tyrant. Don't expect details. See more Saby s 11/14/2023 Awful. Was really looking forward to this as I love mafia movies and documentaries. Was disappointed in the first 2 minutes. 1.Narration is terrible!! Script, voice, tone and diction is like a cartoon and really offputting. Later found out it was Peter Dinklage, sad.. I love the guy. Must have been paid a lot to do this. 2. Visuals; use of Stock videos and cheap AI type generated animations makes it look and feel like a standard Tiktok or Youtube Short made by online amateurs trying to make quick cash. 3. Storyline, nothing new to learn. All the details are as if taken from Wikipedia. I just kept watching to see how much worse it can get. Not much actually, just consistently bad throughout.
