the audience applauded

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Forget the eyewitness statements, true reaction to the shooting is ON film when watching the contractor's reaction.

This film has to be worst documentary I have ever seen. The filmmaker presented as fact, witness accounts that were later recanted and were in direct contradiction of the evidence. "Hands up, don't shoot" was a lie. This film is pure race-baiting propaganda and lies.

Let me save you 90 minutes of eye and ear cancer... This was not meant to be a documentary and is so glaringly bad it comes across as nothing more than Pollock's attempt to cash in on racial tensions. Completely dismissing any actual facts about the incident and trying to make it seem more like a tragedy rather than an officer defending his life as shown by every single piece of forensic evidence examined by experts on both sides. Pollock obviously had an agenda... To make money and get his name out there. What happened to the explosive evidence promised in the marketing of this film? Was it cut to prevent lawsuits as it would be considered slander in a documentary, or did it just never exist. What a complete sham. Those who bought into this clearly lack any critical thinking skills.

One of the more ridiculous points made in the film was by Patrick Green, Mayor of Normandy, Missouri, which is a neighboring town to Ferguson. I'm not exactly sure why he's a part of this, but whatever. He claims that for police to have released the surveillance video of Michael Brown committing robbery at a local convenience store and roughing up the clerk just before the shooting was somehow an attempt to show the world that Brown wasn't really a good person. He goes on to say that to defame or demoralize someone in that way is the oldest trick in the book. I gathered by his statement then, that it wasn't Michael Brown's own actions, because I guess he's not responsible for them, but it was that evil surveillance video that painted him in a negative light. After all, he was a "good person". It was that evil video, which made him look bad, and it should never have been released!!!There's plenty of references made about slavery and about racially charged incidents that occurred over 100 years ago. It may be worth noting that I don't believe anyone remotely associated with the Michael Brown incident was anywhere near 100 years old. They even make the claim that the Daviess County Sheriff's Department badge was designed to look exactly like a Plantation Police Badge worn by the Runaway Slave Patrol in South Carolina back in 1858. The only thing this "slavery badge" has in common with The Daviess County badge is there's a star in the center of it. Other than that, the "slavery badge" looks more like a coin than a badge. The Daviess County bade looks just like any Sheriff's Department badge I've ever seen. So, I'm not sure if the inference is that ALL law enforcement badges are derived from the slave trade and are evil, or if it's just the Daviess county badge that is unique, which it clearly isn't. After that point is drilled home they actually make the claim that the concept of Community Policing is a concept carried over from the Plantation Patrols back during slavery. Community Policing is nothing more than white cops patrolling black neighborhoods to stop and harass innocent black folks for no good reason. I guess the point here is white cops are instinctively predisposed to be slavery cops! This is the point I literally started becoming nauseous. The thought that anyone would watch this one-sided, racially charged propaganda and accept it as an investigative documentary is disturbing.
