From Russia with Cash (2015)
Interesting topic. Terrible documentary.
Pretty rubbish piece of investigative journalism. There was so much to explore and unearth but they just focus on the easy target. It's lazy and misleading. It suggests the whole cause of the issue is just dodgy estate agents. It isn't a surprise to anyone that estate agents acting for sellers are only interested in getting the deal done and cashing in. Anyone who has dealt with an estate agent will know that.
There were bigger and more relevant issues to explore and this documentary doesn't deal with any of them! There was no investigation about the legal loop holes that lend themselves to these transactions. Nothing about solicitor involvement. Nothing about how this affects the London property market. No investigation into who the Russians are that are buying up these properties and what they do with them.
And then there are the QC barristers who added nothing. They just state the obvious in condescending tones. Don't offer any real legal analysis or insight into what needs legislating against.
Absolute time waste.
