El poder policial en EE. UU.

Watched this at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival.

Interesting, yet it feels repetitive with the main subject it wants to explore. The topics about police corruption and abuse of power has been explored within the media for years and the documentary explores the subject with some pretty interesting insights and conversations to explain the issues and the topics. Lance Ford who created "Strong Island" was impactful and while his direction here is good, his sense of exploration and emotion feels lacking and not as strong as his previous movie.

With the movie using many archival footage, interviews and presentations, the style ends up feeling dry as it ends up feeling like the typical and basic Netflix documentary with some really odd editing choices and repetitive tone. The subject is a very serious matter which I do agree with some of the main points but I wish the documentary didn't feel as repetitive as it is.

Overall, it is a interesting story but it runs dry at the end of the day.

I see it as the film was mostly right about policing in a police brutality way, controling the lower class and minorities, but we do need to control violence/criminals.

We all should know by now Police brutality happens daily, we all should know far too many police lie and cover up for each other.

There has to be a balanced alternative.

We need to be responsible for our own behavior, EVERYONE. I don't think this film was biased as some has said.

I think we need to just keep trying to strive to do better.

Most importantly we need to get rid of the politicians who are committing crimes all the time.

To some of us this information is unfortunately not new. Hate it or love it these are the facts and it's an ugly truth. More people should watch it and really drink it in. A good watch IMO. The negative reviews are very telling of the mind set that holds us all back in one way or another. It makes you think what is even the point of law enforcement especially knowing what we know now in this day and age. Makes you really wonder who are they really protecting? It's definitely not the poor. Regardless of ethnicity if you're not in the 1% you're pretty much screwed. The system is not broken it is designed purposely this way smh.

Incredibly moving, thought provoking and very saddening - this documentary is a much watch. It should be part of the national curriculum for all schools in the United States of America.

The majority of the reviews for this documentary are unable to see past their author's entitled view of their own existences. The reviews often look to dismiss the context and content as a means to ignore the undeniable truths exposed in this documentary.

Watch this with an open mind and a humble heart and you will learn a great deal about the unforgivable crimes the US police force has commited against the people for more than a century.

Was very very poorly put together. I was so excited to watch but it turned into a major disappointment. The film uses footage from other countries even though it's all about policing in the U. S. and for some reason while they are talking about the police they keep showing films of nuclear weapons testing lol??? Very odd movie and a huge shame that they couldn't have made this better about a very important topic in our country:/ hopefully someone better can come along and get this topic right in the future. Surprised Netflix let this air?? I would have thought they would have teams of reviewers making sure their products aren't complete nonsense. So many better things to watch!
