Chef's Table (2015–2019)
10/10
Beautifully crafted documentary series
29 September 2020
This documentary series opened my eyes and world to food and cooking. Each episode was inspiring not only from the stories of the chefs but from the food they cooked. I think the cinematography, editing and music really uplifted what a documentary about food could be and set new standards in the film industry to continue. Thank you to the directors and everyone who made this series the way it is. Great work!

Mudbloods (2014)
10/10
This should be in the Olympics!
29 September 2020
To anyone who loves Harry Potter and sports this is the documentary for you. I had no idea that their were legit sport players of quidditch and so passionate about what they do. This should be in the Olympics. I think the documentary filmmaker did a god job capturing the raw stories of the different players and fans of Harry Potter stories. It was exciting and fascinating all the way through. It make me want to sign up to start playing. Well-done film!

I hope that everyone can watch this documentary
29 September 2020
This documentary's powerful stories inspire me to join the fight and help in any way I can. I learned so much that I didn't know before about child trafficking, especially in the United States. It is a horrific crime, and we have to stop it! The documentary uses poetic visuals representing the survivors' stories as you listen to them along with photographs and archival footage. It was rewarding to see how each survivor got out of life with the help of people who cared and the fantastic things they are doing now, like going to university, starting non-profits to save children that went through the same thing. A well-made film. Thank you to all the survivors and advocates who shared their stories! Thank you to the filmmaker and everyone who helped make the movie possible for us to see. I am recommending this film to all my friends and colleagues!

High Production Value
29 September 2020
This episode has excellent production value and cinematography and VFX. It was informative. I think the scariest part was when he took us to the tomb and seeing all the animals that have died during our age. I think adding the children playing sounds was a little too on the nose. I was curious about how much VFX was and how much was actual real landscapes or sets. They did an outstanding job if it is hard to tell the difference

I am looking forward to the next episode.

Very Informative. Everyone should watch this film!
29 September 2020
This documentary was very informative. It influenced how I use social media now. In the reenactment B-roll, I could see my friends who are addicted to social media and how it negatively affects their mental decisions. Thank you to all the interviewees who participated and shared their stories. Thank you to the filmmakers for making the documentary and for the creative and technical choices you made to tell the story! Your work and storytelling is much appreciated!

Spectacular documentary!
29 September 2020
I have seen this documentary twice now and recommend it to all of my friends to watch. It is a spatular story about real badass awesome superheroes. Learning about how the Paralympics was created was very informative; I will be in the stands next time for sure. The main interviewee's stories are powerful, inspiring, and I have the utmost respect for them. The cinematography was EPIC. Such a well-shot film. They had great locations. One of my favorite shots is when Bebe Vio is practicing in this old European mansion in slow motion, and they have camera angles from above and from the side in slow motion. They pace the lyrical editing with classical music. She was like a warrior dancing. Truly spectacular! Well done, everyone who worked on this movie!

Exceptionally Brilliant Documentary
29 September 2020
I can watch this documentary over and over again. It is a well done documentary! The story is simple, a struggling filmmaker takes a break in his career for self-reflection and finding a love for filmmaking again after grinding for decades. He decides to swim in the freezing ocean every day and stumbles upon a charismatic octopus and decides to visit her every day to see what happens. Watch the film to see what happens!
