    Do not miss it

    Fantastic docu series about People vs O J Simpson. Performance of actors was top notch in the series. A must watch from Netflix.

    WOW!

    The performances of this docudrama were fantastic!!! Loved Travolta - his characterization was so unique and memorable. This one will have you on the edge of your seat, whether you remember the OJ verdict or not.

    Everything is perfect but..

    This documentary was outstanding! The direction , the attention to detail was flawless. All the characters that played in this role were not only similar in physique to the real people but in posture and energy as well. The only thing that set me off a bit was the actor who played O.J Simpson, he wasn't charming enough and after seeing the real footage his reflexes weren't same as O.J and seeing him made it look like I was watching a documentary elsewise I would have drowned in the spell of this amazing piece of history.

    A Complete Package

    If I have to describe this series in one line, I would say, "A series worth your time". Never during the entire series will you feel the need to move an inch in your seat. The makers of the show have stuck to the facts and presented it in an ensemble of plot twists.

    One thing which I found very interesting during the entire series was that I was constantly switching sides; often sympathizing with the prosecutors and often sympathizing with the defendants (read court drama).

    Towards the end of the show you find it difficult to understand who the protagonists and who the antagonists are. And I believe that is what makes a series worth watching, isn't it?

    A must-watch

    It's excellent entertainment that sadly trivializes the real-life victims. But if you can get past that reality then you can appreciate the show for what it is. I had to deduct a point from my rating because the show outright lies at times for dramatic effect, but it doesn't diminish its entertainment value. Other than OJ himself, all characters were portrayed well, and the series did a great job of removing the more tedious parts of the real life trial.
