Ross Kemp - Extreme World [DVD]

I rented this DVD because I had enjoyed Kemp's other Documentaries on Gangs and Afghanistan. I didn't know what the series was about until I watched it. Now I've decided it's the best Kemp documentary.The essence of Extreme Worlds is that Kemp travels to parts of the globe which greatly contrast with the everyday reality of life for your average person in the western world. He travels to Chicago to investigate the Heroin scene, Congo to report on Militia violence, Mexico to report on it's drug-related violence and finally he goes to Haiti to see how the country is coping after the devastating earthquake.I feel that this is Kemp's best documentary because it is the most informative and intellectually-rewarding. Extreme Worlds really lets you see how tough the lives are of those who live in third-world countries. It also informs the viewer about the seedier side of life in Western societies.The viewer should be under no illusions, the subject matter of these documentaries is grim. The Congo episode for example is shocking in it's coverage of sexual violence in the country. Extreme worlds will shock and appaul you but it is a must watch for anyone who wants to take a look at the darker side of the world in which we live.

He loved it

What can I say, anything with Ross Kemp in is a bonus. Delivery was fast and watched it many times. Fab DVD

Bought it for a friend who resides in the Caribbean and so far he said that he like the documentary.

A great DVD, certainly worth buying if you have enjoyed Ross's other programs. However, it's disappointing the UK episode is not on this disk.

Ross Kemp gets access to the most unusual and frightening people. Thank you for showing us what is lurking in the shadows, Ross.

Great series very watchable

A great box set %100 recommend it
