Gunther, el perro millonario

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.

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.

This is a bizarre story of a man working through some psychological issues while being absolutely wealthy. The documentary does a very good job of telling you the story he told the world over the years, and then, bit by bit, unravelling the true story. The heart of this story is a scam artist, who unlike others in his profession has the virtue of sometimes telling the truth. Because of this, he does end up being somewhat sympathetic. There is tax evasion on a massive scale, which the Italian government seems to have forgiven him for, and there is also a question of animal abuse, but it is unclear how much he knew of what was going on. There's also a quasi-sex cult shrouded in the veneer of a science experiment. It is definitely worth a watch.

I've never given anything a single star before. I would give this zero stars if I could. I consider entertainment fraud. This "documentary" has four episodes. The first two episodes are boring and ridiculous. The truth is revealed in the third episode. That is when you realized you have been tricked into watching something.

The Netflix trailer for this shows a woman claiming, "It's a true story, I worked for the dog". I don't recall ever seeing such blatant false advertising for any type of film much less one that is presented as a "documentary".

Netflix sunk to a new low here. I have never paid any attention to who created, wrote, or directed anything TV or films. But this is the third "documentary" I've seen recently (the others were on other channels) that was definitely not a documentary. A documentary is based on or re-creating an actual event, era, life story, etc., that purports to be factually accurate and contains no fictional elements. When you start a series with the lead character talking about a few people that were very important to his life but those people never actually existed, you are not making a documentary.

Henceforth I will keep a list of the people associated with this type of production and refrain from watching anything else they are connected with.
