The Curse of Von Dutch

Can be very boring when you stretch the story out to make a mini series out of it, especially when ALL the characters are so unlikeable. Stopped watching after one episode.

Awesome. Hadn't had this much fun watching a doc since tiger king. Loved the pacing and glad they went down a mini rabbit hole with everyone involved. Wild story and I very surprised how much I felt for the characters by the end. Did a great job showing all sides of the story and treated everyone with respect. Loved it!

Well I don't agree that this could have done been done in a half hour, I do agree they probably could have cut this in half, maybe an hour and a half. It's an okay story about a brand that ended up making millions for a short time, and as fast it became popular, it fizzled into nothing.

This is a classic story where no name non-business people get out done by people that know how to make a buck. Then the people claiming that they got screwed by the businessmen, essentially screwed themselves by not being smart enough to navigate the business side of a great idea.

I don't blame the dude who made millions, the guys who started the brand simply made poor decisions and never executed on what they had. The story was sensationalized a bit but worth a watch.

This whole story could have been told in probably 30 minutes and it might have been interesting, but it's dragged out over 3 hours with mostly interviews of stupid people telling boring stories irrelevant to the storyline. It's a desperate attempt to make an interesting story out of something not that interesting.

If you can't see everything I noted in the headline of this review, you need to get out more. Tells the story of fate, butterfly affect, the privileged, the underserved and how the two world's collide. It hopefully raises awareness and curiosity of unconventional creators vs. Conventional capitalists while maintaining the human element of all the key players.
