Coming from one of those "dirty socialist, left-leaning morons", I was impressed with this documentary's restraint in not painting the rioters as outright villains. Sure, there was somber music and maybe one or two instances where a bias was shown, but the former I could see as relating to the situation itself, and the latter was, in my opinion, neglible.
They didn't have to allow the people who were there that day to speak in the documentary, but they did. They didn't have to show them letting the cop back inside the building as a moment of humanity, but they did.
A lesser documentary would have left these moments out to paint a narrative, but this documentary instead elected simply to show what happened, and I applaud it for that.
And to any people on the right who think that this documentary makes them look bad, I'm sorry but...
You did that to yourself.
