I was interested in what happened to grandson. Each episode is so SLOW moving a turtle is faster. It is so slow moving that I will look up outcome on internet. Stretching this till next season - their nuts. A complete waste of time.

The screenplay is perfect, the performance of the actors is flawless, Donald Sutherland's performance had to be mentioned alone: outstanding and couldn't really tell that he was acting, the choice of the actors is very neat. The events provoke my mind in a very twisted way. I hope they go for season 2 and 3.

8 reviews thus far, that surprises me. It also doesn't surprise me at all. It is not fast paced, semi-funny, cheap Netflix content, therefore not appreciated. The synopsis is very interesting, the story-line intriguing. The acting rock solid, no-one exempted. Characters al have proper backstories and are interesting from the get go. The pilot had all the ingredients of a great show.

I recently saw the Ridley Scott version of this story (you know, the one that does not have Kevin Spacey in it any more) and I just had to post and say, this just totally blows that out of the water. That was a mediocre movie, not even beautiful, which is the least I'd expect from Ridley, but this is just fantastic, on every level. The sheer charisma of this film-making is an utter joy to behold and evident across the direction, the performances, thumps out of the soundtrack, every part of this production is innovative, dazzling, fizzing. My only slight, slight criticism is that the 4th wall breaking stuff from Brendan Fraser is too inconsistent and should have either been ditched or made much more of, more often. I guess they thought it was gonna be a big 'feature' when they were writing it and filming it, but then in the cutting room found they just had so much gold, they just didn't know what to do with it all! Jump on the ride here, its fab and you wont regret it.

Nice scenery - seems to be well written but I will not watch any more of this series. I like to like the characters and hope that they do well. In this I do not care what happens to Paul III . It is of no matter to me. He is a profligate self indulgent piece of nothing . Witness his true life and see what happens to him . Furthermore I will not watch any program that is 50 % commercials as is this. I am tired of being used to bolster the networks works bottom lines.

This is a tragic but true story surrounding THE most wealthiest family in the entire world. J. Paul Getty during the 1970's WAS THE richest man in the entire world and he was portrayed in this biography by esteemed actor Donald Sutherland who bares an uncanny resemblance to the real J. Paul Getty. The first episode titled, The House of Getty, focuses on the death by drugs and by harakiri suicide of J. Paul Getty's eldest son George. The aftermath of the suicide represents what this dysfunctional families inherent wealth and power breeds. After the funeral J. Paul Getty is witnessed alone in his room berating his remaining heirs that are his other four (4) sons, three (3) of which are simultaneously hiding in one of their fathers mansions bathrooms sharing a cigarette and talking negatively about why none of them want to accept the responsibilities that their now deceased brother George once held. It is during the aftermath of George Getty's funeral that a dishevelled and inappropriately dressed teenager named John Paul Getty III shows up at his grandfather's mansion with a plan in mind to either request or steal sufficient funds from his grandfather that would allow him to return to Rome and continue partying which is where he most recently was residing and enjoying his young life. Donald Sutherland's portrayal of J. Paul Getty the richest man in the world is electrifying and one of a man who lived and shared money like a miser would, with no friends, far too many ex-wives, five (5) sons and a harem of mistresses who reside in his mansion and are available to him on his beckon call 24 hours per day and night. The opening episode is far from the over the top opulence and skulduggery of such former TV series such as Dallas, Dynasty and Flamingo Road. Instead, we are witnesses to a Getty family and his servants and mistresses that are all fearful of the man at the very top and who tend to walk on eggshells around him, cautious not to say the wrong thing in his presence. I was very impressed with this opening episode and I am looking forward to seeing in future episodes of this Tv mini-series how J. Paul Getty reacts to the news of his grandson's presumed kidnapping in Rome.

This series started with amazing camera work, and continued very strong the whole first episode. It's interesting to compare it to the movie - and the series are better in every way. Better music, better acting, better directing, better everything. This proves once again that cable and pay TV have surpassed the movies when it comes to storytelling. It's also interesting to see how fluid and entertaining Danny Boyle tells the story compared to RidleyScotts boring directing and telling of the story in the movie. This series is really promising, and after one episode it has already set the sights very high. Looking forward to the rest.
