Crime Stories: India Detectives

It definitely could have been done better. But overall, this is a good watch. Each episode is independent and reveals how humans kill for very little. Sad.

Along with the crime and the investigation, they show the officers and try get a peak into their lives. This feels forced upon the viewers and i did not like this part.

Documentary series is good but...they play both original audio and dubbed hindi audio simultaneously.... Whole things become like a noise.

Otherwise good series.

Four episodes, four crimes, one great series, we've all seen countless cop shows from The US, and for me UK based ones also, so it was fascinating to see how things are done in India.

It's a very gritty, incredibly well made series, with the focus very much on the crimes, and those involved, you will see very many cultural differences, but one thing that's very clear, these cops stop at nothing to get to the truth, and that they do.

The Detectives demand respect, and they get it, there is no messing around, they're direct, and straight to the point, although some of the tactics may be a little surprising.

It's very nicely produced, and very well made, at no point did I feel as though they had overdone things.

I loved the first three episodes, I didn't care for the fourth quite so much, I only hope we get to see more. 8/10.

Frankly surprised by the production value of the series, overall it was good but it raises a lot of questions into how the police work which might not always take into account human rights.

It's not a show for the faint of heart, I did not expect them to showcase the actual dead bodies on the show it made me feel uncomfortable. Also the way they treat suspects is not the best and the police justifying their brutality is something I didn't feel comfortable with as well.

At last a Kannada Documentary series!

There are 4 episodes and every episode is different from the other. We do see glimpses of the police's personal lives too. Every case is different from each other and is only rooted to Bangalore.

The episodes aren't great or surprising or thrilling and is made in a very simple straight forward way. The scenery of Bangalore is something that is not shown in movies. Kannada directors go outside Karnataka to shoot while Bollywood directors' version of South India is Chennai, Hyderabad and Kerala. Shame.

As for being real is concerned, I did find many words were put into the police or victim's mouths. The subtitles weren't accurate. I doubt the makers are even Indians which wouldn't have been a problem but after watching BBC's Nirbhaya documentary, I am sure that foreigners making Indian films/ documentaries is only to demean India and nothing else.
