Fear City: New York contro la mafia

I'm unsure as to why so many people on this platform are being so harsh to what I perceived to be a very solid and interesting documentary. A lot of people are saying. " Well it's nothing I've not seen or heard before." That may well be the case and it's the case if many documentaries on certain types of topics. I.e ww2 documentaries. They all are the same at the core because the events can only be described in so many ways. This documentary told the facts of the mob bosses in a very clear way and spoke with many of the key individuals involved in said take down. I'm not sure if this has been down before. So I can't judge. A lot of people also complained about the overly artsy style of having video of 1980s new york in the background and having videos of tape reels playing. Honestly you need something playing and breaks up from simply seeing the people being interviewed. My advice is at least watch the first 15 mins if the first episode. By then you'll know if you want to turn it off or not.

They could have done everything in a single episode. It was too stretched and nothing new.

Worth watching but if you're a fan of anything mafia related, this doc series isn't really going to show you anything you haven't seen or heard before.

I loved the cinematography and the creativity with which they presented the whole documentary. The 70s video cutaways and the interviews in old cars was very creatively executed.

The story was well put together and the sequences in the middle which were retelling an old story of how a wiretap was installed was very interesting and creative. I really enjoyed the whole documentary and I was left very satisfied in the end.

Great work.

So what if it have been told before? But it's a little boring.
