    The documentary show the other side of Gordon Gecko's "Greed is Good". It's good for a couple of people and bad for the rest. The show picks up the moralistic tone of Michael Moore, criticizing society.
    If have followed the news, this feel very familiar and a bit stale. Yes, we know that the AIDS medicine guy Shkreli is probably a sociopath that only cares about himself.

    Television producers sometimes get a little too hung up on consistency of tone or style, to the point where idiosyncrasy gets flattened out. That’s definitely not the case here. In addition to all the clearly explained practical information this series provides, it also illustrates some of the wildly different but equally valid ways in which filmmakers can tell a story that entertains from start to finish without trivializing the series’ important mission.

    A fascinating and frequently enraging new documentary series on Netflix that tackles capitalism run amok.

    The result is a showcase for six skilled directors, and if the series gave me plenty of reasons to despair for the future of the country, it also made me very optimistic about the future of documentary television.
