The Real Bling Ring: Cambriolages à Hollywood

A docu about and starring vile horrible people. Dont be fooled, this is not a crime-docu... this is mainly about Fame-thirsty hollywood-wannabes who only thinks about money and want to talk 95% about their wannabe-lives and 5% about their crimes, with the exception perhaps Nick, who actually seem proud of his crimes.

The docu has some sort of pop-style narrative, focusing on it being cool to become a celeb, more than actually focusing on the people actually getting robbed, and the people commiting a number of crimes, without ANY remorse, lying and telling different versions. The remorse coming from Alexis seems more fake than anything else.

It is watchable, though, as a view into the extreme narcissism of these people who honestly should have been put away a LOT LONGER in jail than what they ended up getting. Shameful.

I'm watching the first episode now, and have realized that these people, especially the guy, have zero remorse for what they did. He's recalling his robberies with glee. The only time he manages to wipe that smirk off his face is when he recalls getting caught. Gross. Out of curiosity, I looked up their jail time, and their sentences were a joke, so no wonder. If given the opportunity, IMO, he would do it again. I can't imagine the inability to evolve after experiencing something as traumatic as jail, but here we are. The mom is a dingbat/crazy too. Anyone who buys into the LOA is lazy. You can't "imagine" success, you have to actually work for it. You can't live beyond your means and just "envision" your bills getting paid, you have to actually pay them, hence, the bankruptcy.

These jerkwads are so empty headed they thought the filmmakers were going to shine positive light on them.

It takes a special kind of moron to talk in front of a camera and think people are gonna empathize with you, no growth and sadly they are procreating and bringing children into their f'ed up life.

Both the guy and the girl(and the mom) show how stupid and careles you have to be to be involved in something like this.

The epitome of a empty headed human raised by reality TV. If you want a summary of how bad this is; one of the dimwits thinks Kim Kardashian is a genius because of x tape...

Yes everyone involved --apart from the prosecutors--is absolutely horrible but the Bling Ring story is crazy and the doc is worth watching. The now-grown-up kids have absolutely zero shame and a million excuses for their crimes but I gotta give them credit for great story telling.

Regarding their awful lawyers, I am horrified how badly these kids were represented by their legal counsel who were clearly just as obsessed with celebrity as their loser clients. But since one of the lawyers was chosen based on HIS LOOKS (he's not that great BTW) what do you expect.

This is a good doc for someone who didnt know the Bling Ring story --especially the reality show angle--and wants to get the full scoop.

I can only assume a lot of the negative reviews didn't watch this and had no interest in watching it, cause while they are right, it obviously was always going to be the point.

Everyone is insufferable, particularly the mother who was never involved in the actual burglaries and there's something horrifically nostogilic of a simpler time where these guys becoming celebrities was unique, now in the influencer era they are prehistoric.

The celebrities they burgled are now a who's that of Hollywood, this serves as a time capsule more than it does a documentary.

It's probably all lies, everyone is definitely terrible, and hell, even the celebs are presented in a way you have no sympathy. But like every train wreck.....
