Featured review
I am very familiar with the modern history of Russia, and this miniseries didn't really bring anything new to the table for me. But it summarized pretty nicely the Putin's presidency, and I was in fact positively surprised.
However, certain major events were totally omitted from the series, such as the war in Georgia in 2008, the Sochi doping scandal, the Moscow theatre hostage crisis of 2002, the Beslan school siege of 2004, and the earlier constitution change in 2012 that prolonged the presidential terms from 4 years to 6 years.
And more effort could've been put on investigating the financial arrangements between Putin and his oligarch friends, and how they have been investing their wealth in the UK and elsewhere in the west...
Anyway, any movie or series that is critical of Putin earns a pretty high score by default. The world needs much more productions like this.
