Movie Reviews of Gangland: The Complete Season One
Movie Review: Great Collection on an oft-overlooked topic
Summary: 5 Stars
I have watched every episode of this series (thank you DVR!) since its inception. I find it to be one of the more compelling documentaries on television today. I have purchased all seasons thus far released on DVD and will continue to do so until the series ends.
Each episode is well-researched and presents points-of-view from within the gang, as well as law-enforcement. If you didn't think gangs were much of a problem, this series may change your mind ... gangs are EVERYWHERE.
Although I am sure that there are some who would view this program as a glorification of gang-life, I strongly disagree. The brutal and tragic truth behind all the gangs presented clearly illustrate a warning of the insidious nature of gang-life.
Although the MTV-like presentation of the subject matter can be abrasive (especially the repetitious "arrrrgggghh" that infests each and every episode), the format could be meant to induce younger viewers to watch the show. What makes this series so interesting is that it focuses on all gangs, not just those that have been highlighted by the media over the years (Bloods, Crips, Hells Angels, etc.) ... prison gangs, outlaw motorcycle gangs, inner-city gangs, white-supremacy gangs ... this series covers them all in manner that is hard to ignore.
