Jamie C This thing crawls and gasp trying to do something, but what? It's an emotional topic presented by emotionless people , you can tell that they've talked about it for so long so many times they're struggling and faking to get through it just one more time and as terrible as it may sound, makes you not care . Honestly, I'm not sure if Ghislaine Maxwell ever did anything the warranted a prison sentence at all… no one was held against their will everyone was free to leave. There's no proof she ever sexually assaulted anyone. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/10/23 Full Review Dustin D This documentary about Ghislaine Maxwell is too short to go in-depth. I don't get much sense of her character. She is probably a psychopath. It seems like she just thought Jeffrey Epstein's sex crimes weren't a big deal, and her participation was all in good fun. The documentary does a convincing job persuading the audience of Maxwell's culpability in Epstein's crimes. Without her recruitment and confidence games, essentially "grooming," Epstein couldn't have victimize nearly as many girls. She was more than an enabler, she was an active participant. Very creepy stuff. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/22/23 Full Review Paul A As "Ghislaine Maxwell: Filthy Rich" (2022 release; 101 min) opens, it is "August 10, 2019" and Jeffrey Epstein has just committed suicide while in jail. The immediate question: where is Ghislaine Maxwell? 18 (!) months later, she is found in New Hampshire and immediately arrested on multiple criminal charges. At this point we are less than 10 min into the movie. Couple of comments: this is a sequel or companion release to 2020's "Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich", which I have not seen (I really don't want to know any more about that guy than I do). But when the same film makers announced this project, my interest was a little peaked: what had possessed this woman, at one time Epstein's partner, to become a relentless recruiter and groomer of young (many underage) girls to provide to Epstein? This film goes into that issue at length and offers some possible explanations. Along the way, we also hear from several of the victims themselves, and why events some of which happened as long ago as 25 years continue to haunt them. Most tellingly for me are also a number of Maxwell's acquaintances from back in the day, and the bizarre behavior she showed even then. Several of the victims state that Maxwell was in fact worse than Epstein. Most importantly, one of the victims, when asked her reaction after Maxwell's conviction, observes: "We've finally been heard". Very true. How is it that these terrible people were able to do what they did for DECADES, despite the numerous complains by the victims as early as the mid/late 1990s? Just shocking. Bottom line: this documentary provides a very sobering, if not outright shocking, look at a socialite who decides to become a child trafficker, all to please her (ex) partner... "Ghislaine Maxwell: Filthy Rich" premiered on Netflix in November. If you have any interest in learning why a woman of means decides to become a child trafficker and groomer, I'd readily suggest you check this out, and draw your own conclusion. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Connor S Unfortunately a familiar story, God bless the victims... Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/01/22 Full Review jed b Obviously supposed to be a slanted piece. I don't support what happened at all, but it insinuates that Maxwell had ties to only one side of the aisle, and it's never the side that hurts Hollywood or the media. You didn't almost die. You're not a "survivor." And these type of documentaries rarely mentioned how much the (clear) victims and their attorneys benefitted financially. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review leokimvideo Very interesting deep dive into the world of the uber wealthy and very connected circle of friends Maxwell had. The signs were on the wall well before the connection to Epstein. Sadly it seems she would do anything to please others without thinking of the damage it caused. Maxwell's life was one where what's right & wrong we're never set down. She's also a product of the elites she associated with as none of them blew the whistle when they noticed something wasn't right.
