Mostly interesting, fairly well researched. Episode 2 is laughable though (they clearly believe the Russiagate conspiracy theory which has been debunked while sneering at other slightly more credible "conspiracy theories"). If you've temporarily run out of things you want to watch on Netflix, it's worth a look.

Just saw this movie on Netflix, and checked the critics' reviews afterwards. What I saw reinforces my belief that critics should be read, if at all, with a kilo of salt. I'm so glad I didn't listen to them. Although some aspects of the movie were somewhat predictable, that didn't detract from the story, which was well-paced. The great ensemble cast were good -- superb in a number of scenes, and the emotionalism was honest, not "treacly" as one critic sniped. The hard realities of life and death, and the magic of enduring beauty were well portrayed.
