ARA San Juan: Das verschwundene U-Boot

Don't let the macrists tax dodgers fool you, they just hate the country, the truth, and people kwowing the truth; this doc is good and is also well made. If their beloved politicians didn't want to comment and defend themselves, well... that's too bad, my son: silence is consent.

The doc is good, it covers many theories discussed althroughout the years, good and bad, and provides proof to discard the flimsiest ones. I don't want to spoil which ones but both sides came up with some weak, Mulder-y theories and this series buries them deep in the Atlantic, but I guess some people really want to believe it was a certain lady's fault so whatever proves it wrong will be disappointing.

The doc spends a great deal of time with the relatives of the submariners and how the government treated them and the situation, spoilers: they did so as your run of the mill psychopath would, no surprise there. They spied on the relatives, they berated them in their faces, and even tried to make a buck while at it-as they often did and are doing again right now in 2024 because they are back in the game- by not listening to their wishes and recommendations.

The truth is not quite out there, because we still don't know what happened to those 44 heroes, but at least we know who is keeping it a secret that probably will never be known.

The critical aspects of this tragedy are overshadowed by Netflix horrible voice talents. I actually found myself laughing at the presentation of translations-I couldn't continue knowing how inappropriate it was to laugh.

The victims and families of the tragedy would be better honored by bilingual voice talent who were not pretending to be actors.

There are many other failures in this documentary. Overall, this fails because it was created with poor intentions, misrepresenting the failure in the search, the cover up is only briefly addressed (up to the point I had to shut it off), and the lack of representing the families' frustrations and anger.

Started watching this out of curiosity. Professionally with a background in aviation accident investigation and a fanatic of military history this looked right up my alley. I was excited to learn about what had happened. The first episode dragged on and I slowly got overly dramatic conspiracy theory vibes by the end. I thought this would be an intelligent and fact seeking accident investigation type of show. About 10mins into the second episode I had to turn it off. They focused on uneducated public figures and their conspiracy theories with almost no reasonable coverage of actual facts. I skipped ahead to the last episode literally titled "black box" hoping it would actually talk about the investigation and causes. But it was nothing but more wild conspiracy theories. Do they really think a nation is going to blab and plaster state and military intel and secrets all over the public media!? Of course theyre going to be discreet and withhold vital information critical to nation security!!!

Easily one of the DUMBEST "documentaries" Ive ever seen. A complete disappointment. Along the idiotic "documentaries" about big foot and such.

Really hope Netflix doesn't plan on produce any more of this type of trash!

As a New Zealander, I watched this without any partiality or knowledge of the event.

Obviously I initially felt for the family, but as the documentary progresses it becomes evident that certain family members, and their representative, became toxic. They adopted nonsensical, counter-intuitive conspiracies, hurt officials that did nothing wrong, like Claudio Villamide and Marcelo Eduardo Hipólito Srur being wrongfully dismissed.

It is clear that no answer will ever satisfy these people. They want to see as many people punished as possible, regardless if those people did anything wrong. Their judgement has gone out the window due to their grief. Rather than coming to terms with their loss, they have given themselves over to being perpetually difficult. It is sad.

I started watching the series with a lot of expectations. Unfortunately, by the end of the first episode I had already found out that it was a disgusting piece of political propaganda.

Interviewed people are completely biased, even when one takes into account their personal grief of the crew´s relatives.

The so-called "naval expert" Fernando Morales (a merchant seaman) appears wearing a uniform with non-existent rank insignias, and speaks about virtually everything, from politics to psychology. There´s this pathetic character, Mariano Pi, who belongs to a group of self-appointed researchers, who tries to tear down scientific evidence with nothing but unfounded assumptions. And the same goes for Sergio Díaz.

Virtually all the people interviewed are completely partial in their statements.

What could be a very nice piece of documentary turned into a cheap political flyer.
