Reviews for When They See Us

should have called saul

This is what I mean by (masterpiece).One of the best show oat This show really deserves an Emmy and many awards i like how they sheds light of every character (Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Korey Wise, and Raymond Santana) especially korey wise who was a great actor. The show a

A good story of reality, but it did not move me as much as many say. Maybe because I'm not American...

A short miniseries containing of 4 brilliant episodes about 5 boys who were falsely convicted of crimes such as rape and assault. It really is horrible to know that this is based on a true story and that they actually “wasted” like 50% of their life in prison. Even when they got outside of prison th

I’m sobbing. I’m angry. My blood is boiling. I’m so fucking pissed. I’m furious at our criminal justice system for failing these young men. I’m furious at them for failing all wrongfully convicted. This entire system needs to be reformed from the ground up. They were wrongfully convicted in 1990, an

I’m not gonna rate a show like this. Im sorry! -those boys did not commit the rape -nypd broke soooo many laws and violated those boys rights just to get a conviction to please the public instead focusing on finding the real rapist. -nypd are very racist. They wouldn't have dared treated teenage w

best miniseries i’ve seen. phenomenal performances from pretty much every everyone

this is just such a fucking amazing miniseries. the TRUE story of the shitty american 'justice' system ruining the lives of 5 CHILDREN is such an important one to show to the world, and it was done in the best way possible. not only is it incredibly emotional and well written, every single aspect is

This one hits hard. When They See Us isn't just a show; it's a gut punch. It tells the true story of the Central Park Five-five Black and Latino boys wrongfully accused of a crime they didn't commit. And man, it's painful to watch. The performances are insanely good. Every actor makes you feel thei

9.8/10 One of the best shows ever created every episode is masterpiece, very touching and scary story

Third installment of When They Cry series. Instead of crying, they are seeing us from This Is Us. For the first time, It’s a miniseries, not a visual novel. All jokes aside, What a miniseries. Netflix really did an excellent work.

#7 ranked miniseries all time such a tragic & frustrating miniseries, & sucks that this a based on a completely true story extremely passionate & intense, emotional to the brim & beautiful the acting is phenomenal by the entire cast, & everything is done really well, especially the ending on
...

a realistic display of the brutal and awful reality we live in. it’s painful to watch, but it’s a good and well-done show.

This is one of those brilliant shows that you never want to revisit again. I guess the horrible justice system in the U.S. is not a secret to anyone. Still, it's fueled by racial biases, cruelty, and corruption. Something that shouldn't exist in the country that positions itself as a superpower. I

One of the best miniseries oat, truly at a loss for words 💔, best word to describe this show is masterpiece In just 4 episodes, this show managed me to connect with these characters like no other show out there. This is a must watch for everyone, really reccomend this show Thank you @bx13 if

“When They See Us” is a series about human destinies; the picture is heavy and requires the viewer’s full attention. You won’t be able to watch it well by chance, in a large company or while doing some extraneous things. Viewers can simply sit back and watch. OVERALL: 8.6/10

Police misconduct, abuse of power, lies, corruption, racial bias, the attitudes and stereotypes of the public/media/authorities, inhumane prisoner living conditions, and failure of social restoration for inmates who've gotten out. A very emotional series indeed, and I try not to use that word light
...

I mean it’s just incredible from start to finish what else is there to say. Probably my 2nd favorite miniseries I’ve ever seen. Very powerful. Episodes ranked 4. 1x3 3. 1x1 2. 1x2 1. 1x4 One of the best seasons of all time.

4th Dark Society Group Watch The thematics are really pertinent, most performances are great. I don't think they handled very well the time jump in E3 (it was better handled in E4) and the balance between episodes wasn't the best. Yet, a must watch.

This was a really hard watch especially some scenes in episode 4 the fact this is based on a true story is even more sickening. I recommend this to everyone it's short and entertaining. Ep 4>2>1>3

Greatest season of all time can't say much just the best thing I've ever watched Also I'm counting this as a show since limited series still are shows -> Greatest show ever

This Show really destroyed my Life. Such a tragic Story and the Fact that this was a real story makes me literally cry. Episodes Ranked: 1. Part Four 2. Part Three 3. Part One 4. Part Two Top 5 Character 1. Korey Wise 2. Raymond Santana 3. Antron McCray 4. Yusef Salaam 5. Kevin Richardson 9.5/10
