Gunthers Millionen

With out a doubt the biggest collection of delusional, disgusting, egotistical, manipulative people I've ever seen in a limited series. No one speaks any truth for fear of legal entanglement. Every party involved has a vested interest. There is no one to cheer for here. Millions & millions of dollars wasted. Absolutely zero achieved. When you ponder the good that could have enhanced the world for many, but ends up just being squandered for even more ego fulfillment, you'll feel sick. Endless schemes, scams & blatant lies. The only redeeming quality of the limited series is that at least the makers were attempting to get the story out, but you can tell that their hands were tied due to legal ramifications.

If like me, your understanding and expectations of what this show was going to be are far different from the amazing results then we are Kindred Spirits. I thought this was going to be some silly reality show series but what It ultimately becomes is what should have been the very first reality TV show. I can't even begin to explain how little the general premise of the show coincides with the actual narrative and backstory. I set out to watch this as a Time filler before putting on a movie but it was so gripping that I ended up binging the entire thing in one night.

This series goes to show truth is Stranger Than Fiction because if you had written this and acted it out for an audience no one would believe you but in fact I think mostly we get the full story without spoilers I will say it is one of the most touching it odd stories one can imagine to have been true.

Depressing and dull show about a spoiled, mentally ill man who indulges his fantasies and bad ideas while everyone around him tells him he's a genius and spends his Mother's money. Only likable thing is the gorgeous dog....grotesque people embarassing themselves trying to be cool....super boring. Get your finger ready to fast forward the mind numbing dialogue, bad acting and stupid story line. I truly hope these dopes didn't make any money off this waste of screen time. They really are the worst specimens on the planet...tax evaders that I hope Italy busts and slaps heavy fines on...fraudsters and narcicissits..I feel contaminated...

The spokes guy at beginning was at least honest when he said he wanted to be a tick on the dogs ass for the rest of his life. Everyone here is showing the worst in humanity I dont care what there motivation was. Yes it was this old woman's money to do what she wanted with but her giving it to the dog was the first act in a horrible horrible play of humanity, Instead of leaving this money to even say an animal shelter or green peace she left it to her dog. Which shows her absolute inhumanity. And this is why people over the ages have pulled down these people eventually. But then the people that came out of the woodwork to suck at the teet of this guy Mian just boggles the mind. This reminds me of when they do documentaries of ponzi schemes and everyone on screen is trying their hardest to make excuses for what happened. We know what happened greed, excess and money.

After the first couple of episodes, I started fast forwarding because it just wasn't interesting enough. Sure, the overall story was fascinating and took great twists and turns, but it could have been told in about two episodes. It got very repetitive VERY REPETITIVE and tedious to watch. Whoever made the editing decisions must have been too close to the project as the same analysis of the main character was repeated as well as sections of the dog trust, etc etc. Now I'M getting repetitive but IMDB won't let me post this review until I have 600 characters. This documentary doesn't have that same excuse.
