Debi Enker The Age (Australia) 06/16/2020
Directed by Lisa Bryant, it eschews a sensational tone as it quietly, clinically constructs its portrait. Go to Full Review Michael Idato Sydney Morning Herald 06/12/2020
The victims' accounts are genuinely affecting, slowly creating a sickening mosaic of what is at one point likened to a sexual pyramid scheme, a disturbing structure in which victims are ultimately asked to recruit more victims. Go to Full Review Adam Graham Detroit News 05/29/2020

There's a bigger, broader story to be told about Epstein, his web of secrets, the network of the rich and powerful and the ways that money corrupts. That will be a knockout. For now, "Filthy Rich" is a good start. Go to Full Review Victor Pineyro Seventh Art Studio 02/24/2021
7/10
It seems the events are too recent for the documentary to do an excruciating journalistic job. But it serves as a much needed platform for the victims. These types of documentaries make everything unsurprising. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Bob Chipman Escapist Magazine 07/25/2020
7/10
The question of how it happened is probably a lot less important than the fact that it denied full and complete justice to his still unknown total number of victims and the survivors who were already brave enough to come forward Go to Full Review Tom Meek Cambridge Day 06/29/2020
2.5/4
They tell their stories boldly and more, but what truly resonates throughout the four-part documentary is the complicity of government agencies and officials... Go to Full Review Read all reviews

David F @dfulmer Aug 26 This true crime documentary gives a pretty good run down of the dissolute financiers crimes told from the point of view of victims and witnesses. See more Dustin D 03/15/2023 I appreciated the focus on the survivors. It helped me to understand how horrible his crimes truly were and how creepy he was. However, I found it unsatisfying. The filmmakers didn't dig sufficiently into where his wealth came from. His early ponzi scheme and management one billionaire's money would only account for a fraction of his wealth. Also, they didn't ask too many questions about his "suicide," only acknowledging the conspiracy theories aren't totally unfounded. See more cem y 01/30/2022 A powerful series with narratives of young women that are hard to listen and imagine. A documentary that should be watched although directorially it is not a very good product. See more Petros T @PetrosTserpelis 05/30/2021 It's a serviceable documentary, at its best chilling, moving and surprising, giving voice to victims as it should be. However, most of the time it feels rather restricted narratively and directorially and doesn't get to the deeper questions. See more 12/12/2020 This show about Epstein goes really in depth about his horrible crimes, which is really interesting. Not great, but pretty good. See more 09/09/2020 This was definitely a strong piece about a sick sick sick person and his sick helpers, and the people they hurt. See more Read all reviews
