The characters portrayed probably had a life full of interesting details, but that seems to be wasted and this series rarely gets you enthusiastic. It's not that those guys should be glamorized or that the series should take a sensationalist approach, but some greater detail would do well. Episodes are long but lack information density. Those simulation scenes could have been more well performed, especially with better actors. Or they could just have not been made at all, or even be replaced by cartoon. It's interesting - even indispensable - to interview those who were directly involved in the events portrayed (the cops and the gangsters), but it would be very nice to also hear some of the people who were indirectly affected by their actions and also some experts. This series can be entertaining, but it leaves you with the feeling that something much better could have been done with its subject matter.
