Dirty Money (2018–2020)
8/10
Fascinating, Gripping, And Politically Dangerous
26 January 2018
As I've said before, if Netflix does anything right, its the Original documentaries and docu-series like Fire Chasers, A Shot In The Dark, and Wormwood. While this isn't as good as those shows, Dirty Money is still a fascinating series about American greed. Each episode tells the story of a different economic/business controversy, from the corruption of VW and other automakers, to big pharma's unethical practices, to HSBC's legendary funneling of billions of dollars worth of Mexican Cartel narcotic money. Each story is gripping from the beginning to the end, each having more global implications than the next.

While the basic story of each episode is know, it delves deep into the unbelievable evil greed and corruption that it shows to be inherent in our government and our major corporations. Director Alex Gibney puts it all in the open, showing the deceit involved in the global economy, such revelations that have major implications. People have been killed for blowing the whistle on such unethical behavior, and Alex Gibney puts himself on the line to expose the worst practices in our government. Entities like big pharma and the auto industry have been exposed in the worst possible way, I will not look at them the same way.

I highly recommend this fantastic show.
