Once Upon a Time in Londongrad

This is an extremely poor documentary made by left wing Buzzfeed 'journalists', short on facts but long on opinions, including the baseless conclusion that all the deaths are attributable to Vladimir Putin personally. I know and have met several of the characters on whom the documentary focuses as well as some of the people who were interviewed for comments. For anyone who has followed these events, which took place more than a decade ago, there are no new revelations, which poses the question what have these 'journalists' been doing other than collating already published reports? It may be of interest to those who are unaware of these events, or to those who subscribe to the current Western narrative that Putin Bad (remember Orange Man Bad), but it's a complete waste of time for those with any knowledge of the actual events that took place. Cheap tabloid journalism at best.

Well i thought this was excellent . Fascinating , illumination and shocking. I was aware of a lot of the incidents in this documentary but it was good to get a lot more depth to the financial skullduggery , strange deaths and Russian secrecy all at play behind the scenes in London.

No objectiveness in this criminal investigation story, was my first thought watching this 6 part story about cloak and daggering of russian elements living in angst and fear for their life for being in oposition to the russian government. It flashes its search light upon 14 suspicious deaths of russian conected individuals, cases that has merely been silenced by the british police and upper governmental spheres, and im surtain we'll never learn the truth of reality here. The evidence and build up of each case is plausibel but... nobody wants to get their hands dirty from dirt...

but as an international affairs and suspectible death of oppositionals of the newborn russian state, the entertainment factor lingers pretty high, allthough you may sense the ''i did'', ''we did'' and '' we saw'' advert of buzzfeed journalism, the grumpy old man can only recommend a view, cause the deaths are real and the world is still cruel and im sure that more will come in the future.the lid hasnt been tightened completely yet...

Beautifully made. Great work. Two parts just right, it's captivating and the story wasn't draggy. Stan should do more of this kind of set up. Viewers will definitely watch a mini part series than a boring movies. Perfectly done.

I made it through the first 45 mins of long, meandering explanations from an array of journalists............................but the trailer was good.
