A very dark journey into a grim world.
kcd-0440617 May 2024
This well made series does take you on a very dark journey into a grim world, where loyalty to the gang takes precedence over morality, decency and adherence to law.

The access is extraordinary as the gang members are sworn to secrecy and very few have ever spoken publicly because of the risk of retaliation. There are also contributions from law enforcement officers using every resource they have to infiltrate and arrest any criminal members. A fascinating duel.

The episodes cover murders, drug dealing, rapes, gang fights and many other crimes over the course of many years. Certainly not for the squeamish or faint hearted...

Woefully Incorrect
Tactrix16 April 2024
Now I love seeing a good biker series as much as the next guy. However the issue with this series is that it's just wrong. Right from the start they tagline it as "Hells Angels are the biggest and baddest biker gang too ever live." 100% wrong. To date the Hells Angels have around 2,300 patched members. The Vagos have over 4,000. Not only are they just as violent and dangerous as the Hells Angels, but by all accounts far more so. So as where the stories in this series are relatively true, their depiction of the standing of this gang is not. And that's a huge distinction because the Vagos was also main chaptered in California. Which means when they keep talking about, "The Hells Angels had a blood fued with the Mongrels because they owned California." That's a complete lie, they didn't own anything except in their hopes and dreams.

3/10 don't let the hype become your reality when making a real series.

Glamorize toothless outlaws

I'm sorry, but this is comic book garbage. There is nothing glamorous about outlaw motorcycle gangs, quit making these shows to try and dispel that. Oh here's an idea, let's find some old guys with no lives relive the glory of their 1% days forty years ago. Tiring and pathetic. These guys dealt drugs and mindlessly killed people, let's try not to hold them up for new generations to idolize. OK, need to come up with 600 words for this review? Not sure why, few people read more than headline and first two sentences of review. Perhaps this is to show people are really committed to have their opinion get read.
