The Curse of Von Dutch

Never knew much about this brand but the story if true is a bit crazy

Interesting story, not sure how much of it is trumped up and exaggerated for the series, but an interesting watch regardless.

7.3.

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.

Some reviewers shouldn't be leaving them if they didn't bother to watch the whole thing. I remember when Von Dutch blew up as a kid so maybe that's why I enjoyed it but it was still an interesting story. Shows the many sides of a business and how ruthless it can be. It's only 3 episodes so it's not a long ride but I enjoyed it.

SweeZ.

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.

The documentary was good. The story was good. The person who ruined everything was Bobby. He is a terrible story teller. It was like listening to a 6th grader. He speaks like he's 10. There was no eloquence to his stories and it was just horrible. Other than that the show was good. Learned a lot about the brand.
