acsdoug D @acsdoug Jun 10, 2023 Riveting and remarkable, an interesting juxtaposition of a crazy man and a just cause. See more Jul 13, 2010 This documentary isn't as entertaining as it is interesting. It is the story of a Japanese WWII veteran who investigates the murder/execution of 2 alleged Japanese deserters who were killed after the war ended. More interesting than the investigation are the people who are interviewed and their reactions. The people who are interviewed are haunted by there past, most of them are very reluctant to talk. When some of them finely do talk, it is chilling to see their emotion and to hear the gruesome things they have to say. I recommend this documentary because it shows emotions and reactions I have never sen before. Nothing is dramatized, it is a cold and honest. It is a testimony of the horrible things people have to live with and how they deal with it. See more Mar 15, 2010 Frighteningly real, it never ceases to amaze. I'll never forget it. See more Feb 28, 2010 I wanna watch this again. so funny and intense movie See more Jan 7, 2010 It's easy to see why Errol Morris calls this one of his top five favorite films. There's so much here, both spoken and unspoken, that a film class could spend a whole term sorting it out. Absolutely riveting for those who like to draw their own conclusions, and probably boring as hell for those who merely wish to be entertained. I've never seen anything like this.

To call it an expose might not do its visceral content justice. See more Read all reviews
