The series itself is extremely well acted, filmed, directed and edited. Very fine actors, and he story can't be any more dramatic and shocking. Get ready for the heartbreaking truth, spot-on and touching.
This mini-series could well be called a acted documentary and shows us in detail how the pharmaceutical industry has been (and still is) working for decades. Pushing dokters and hospitals to prescribe their addictive drugs (not medicines) using misleading marketing, false studies, outrageous marketing tricks and widespread bribery until the highest level of politics and law-enforcement. They knew exactly what they were doing, not interested in the health of the patients, but only in the number of zero's in their bank account.

Too many loose ends, personages that end up hanging in the air, unfinished storylines. And George Clooney does not convince. Interesting subject, could have been a great movie. Movie itself stays up in the air, and never lands :-)
Season 2 is one of the best seasons I;ve seen, and i've seen them all
