A Tinder-csaló

Another excellent true crime documentary from Netflix that definitely deserves your time. The makers of Don't F**k with Cats: Hunting an Internet Killer, one of my favorites, serve up another imaginative documentary with a cinematic look and it's a blast. The story centers on an Israeli con man who poses as a diamond company tycoon and very intelligently and deviously "steals women" on Tinder. It's a brilliant crime, you might say, brilliantly thought out and thoroughly constructed, for which he doesn't face much punishment while living like a king. On the one hand, a bastard, on the other, I like how much work is behind it all. He was quite attractive to women not only because of the money (vacations, cars, 5-star hotels, clothes, parties, etc), but he was also a gentleman, represented dominance, knew what women wanted to hear, and was also a consummate manipulator and seducer, so business was good. He also managed a revenge against three girls who decided to go against him. I like the fact that real footage (videos, photos) are used as well, and in places the documentary is decently suspenseful, intense and nicely paced. It also has great music – who would expect that in a documentary. It's a very gripping and suspenseful thing where boredom is definitely not an option. This is a good one.
