This documentary was 3 things in one 1) The person behind Kim Dotcom 2) The copyright and media lobby in the U.S 3) Incompetent political and justice system in New Zealand

I saw a very disturbed man portrayed who has some deeply psychological issues. He struck me as a very self-centered egomaniac, with highly developed narcissistic features. On top, he is equipped with criminal energy, and is convinced that he stays above the law and is allowed to lie and deceit as he feels.

His behaviour seemed to get him in trouble in the past, but he was spared hard punishment and gotten away so many times by the German justice system -- which I hear is mostly mild and liberal. Since he lives in a bubble that only allows him to see what he believes in -- which is in most cases his superiority and divinity (he actually drives cars that have vanity plates with 'GOD', 'KILLER', and 'CEO'),he is missing a moral compass.

The other part of the movie deals with the copyright system and the media lobby in the U.S. Which I think has a lot of potential in terms of criticism.

Once in his life, Kim Dotcom is being hit hard, this time by the U.S. government operating in New Zealand, thus giving him probably the one and only lesson of his life. However, being a master in manipulation, he starts one PR campaign after another only to trick people, press, and politicians that his endeavours and illegality had nothing to do with himself, but a sacrifice to fight against the media lobby. Not enough, he adds privacy, security and freedom of internet to his allegedly self-sacrificed actions as these topics are highly trending.

Unnecessary to say, and also portrayed in this documentary, many smart people seem to have seen through this sham of Kim.

However, that's where this documentary gets very confusing. It portrays this weird character in a wonderful way, in a way to fulfill the audiences need to be voyeurs to watch and see a psychologically distrubed character -- the same way we sometimes like to watch TV shows to enjoy pleasure by watching other people's pain -- like hoarders or failed criminals (Cops).

Instead of providing clarity and cleverness, the documentary actually starts supporting Kim's view, as if the filmmakers were brainwashed during the production by Kim Dotcom's contrived realm. It felt like a documentary that was portraying a cult, just to become one of them at the end of the production, because they were convinced of the existence of the cult's imposed false God. It reminded me of an old Belgian movie that was showing a documentary team following a gruesome killer, just to become accomplices through the end of their documentary (C'est arrivé près de chez vous).

The movie also has shown how easily manipulative, weak and incompetent the New Zealand political, justice and police system is. New Zealand was portrayed as a country that can be 'hacked' into and abused by a hacker named Kim Dotcom. Seeing that actually gave me a whole new perspective of New Zealand -- a country as small as a village with only a few and weak key people that can easily be pushed around. A country anybody and anytime could invade with any made-up idealism. I'm not sure if that's the case -- but it sure was displayed that way.

And instead of looking further into this assumably volatile system that aroused more and more questions, the filmmakers suddenly and surprisingly decided to make a statement that the reason for Kim Dotcom's success was not the weakness of New Zealand system -- but the rightfulness and idealism of Kim Dotcom.

At the end, I was confused, how the producers could not see behind the curtain, even though... it was right there in front of them... inside their own documentary. They failed to detach themselves from this person, and instead became biased.

And for a moment there it felt like the filmmakers decided to go that route, to be more likeable in the eyes of the free internet, no copyright, and liberal movement. But in fact did that just to get more attention for their documentary from this specific target audience. Just like Kim Dotcom.

Greetings again from the darkness. On paper, the real life story sounds like some cheesy B-movie thriller on the trail of a super- hacker nicknamed "Dr. Evil of the internet" as he builds his empire by stealing the work of others. However, director Annie Goldson is dealing in reality and submerges us in the years-long saga of Kim Dotcom, the (somewhat) proud owner of the Dr Evil moniker. This is every bit as much a commentary on legalities and technology as it is on the 'livin' large' lifestyle of the film's subject.

A sprawling estate with a security wall and cameras located in Coatesville New Zealand is where we begin. It's the home of Kim Dotcom, formerly known as Kim Schmitz, and his wife Mona and their 3 kids. Think Jordan Belfort in THE WOLF OF WALL STREET and you'll have a good idea of the type of extreme parties that Kim and his cohorts hosted. In 2012, a pre-dawn raid of the estate changed everything – and we are privy to some of the actual footage.

After the raid, law enforcement threw just about every possible charge at him: money laundering, racketeering, and most crucially, copyright infringement. Perhaps you were one of his MegaUpload customers? Millions of people were, and he banked hundreds of millions of dollars from his site – a site designed for users to share files with others. Of course, it turned into a site where mostly what was uploaded and shared were digital copies of movies and music. The files spread across the globe while artists and production companies received no royalties. The question of law boiled down to this: can an online provider be protected or insulated from the (illegal) actions of its users?

Kim Dotcom has been described as a parasite, a criminal and as evil. Obviously, he sees himself much differently and while reveling in his "most wanted man online" badge, he prefers to position himself as a resistance fighter … one who has simply seized an opportunity afforded by a technological revolution of which lawmakers can't maintain pace.

Director Goldson provides as much structure as possible to a messy and multi-faceted legal story, while also presenting the super-sized personality of Kim Dotcom … a man driven by ego, greed, and fame. He clearly thrives on his celebrity status (as evidenced by his participation in a Town Hall meeting with Julian Assange and Edward Snowden),and from a very early age became quite comfortable with relaxed ethics in our ever-evolving culture of technology.

In an era of dissolving morals, he is a difficult man to muster sympathy for. It does seem, however, that he was at a minimum, a victim of over-reaching by law enforcement. The legalities of the search warrant and charges are a bit murky (and still being challenged),and viewers will likely teeter between 'lock him up' and 'modernize the laws'. We all know the universal internet is tied to the global economy, so why are international copyright laws so fragmented and antiquated? Instead of a B-movie thriller, Ms. Goldson has delivered a true-to-life horror story … one with no clear resolution in sight.

The unknown king of the internet, Kim Dotcom, mastered the secrets of this network between computers and became a well known figure, after time, for his talent and brilliant innovations that he came up with. Kim faded in existence for many as a bad guy, the pirate that cracked up privacy and made everything open source. He is just a regular dude with extraordinary ideas under his belt, that no one could have ever just think of, and it is sad to see that someone who militates for the freedom of others, is being prosecuted and hunt for unnecessary things.
