Crime, Chaos, Corruption Documentary Reviews
There are some weeks when I check streaming services for new documentaries and I’m thrilled. When the MH370: The Plane That Disappeared documentary popped up as a notification on my phone from Netflix, I was elated and ready to finish my day so I could get to the next and watch this one during work....

I love a good conspiracy theory. Convincing me it’s true is another ordeal. In 9/11: The Fifth Plane we’re presented with the brief story of how one plane may have been a fifth target on September 11.

I haven’t watched it. From what I’ve seen and heard, it didn’t change anyone’s minds. The growth of true crime documentaries is something I... Continue Reading →
What The Volcano: Rescue from Whakaari is all about without spoiling the show I’ll refer to this one simply as The Volcano in my descriptions to save your eyes from getting too tired.
