Finding Amelia

If you're into famous disapearance stories, this one is a "keeper" (sad some other myopic, ADHD reviewers trash-talk this gem). Also if you've read the NYT Bestseller (and NYT's Editor's Choice) book of last 10 years called "Savage Harvest", about the 1961 disapearance of Michael Rockfeller there in Papau New Guinea (yes the son and granson heir to the Rockefeller fortune) and the tribal cannibalism of the jungle and disapearances, then this expedition will seem to be (and "be") all-too-real of the impossibilities of getting at the answers to Amelia. The basic premise that Carra (the expedition leader) works from, is that Amelia and Noonan always intended that after flying some hours, and a couple thousand miles, and "not seeing the island" (Howard Island) at first were not-to-ditch the aircraft and sink themselves, but rather to just turn-around to Papua, land, and try again. But alas, they crashed there in Papau. All other expeditions have been focused out at sea near Howard Island. And further to have first-hand evidence of a plane with Amelia's engine serial numbers in the jungle -- well, why not just focus there? But read "Savage Harvest" perhaps before this film docu and you'll see why getting answers out of this dark hole of unanswered questions is the last place on earth that anyone should have to look, for anyone or anything (whether Michael Rockefeller or Amelia Earhart or Fred Noonan or their plane) That jungle area makes the Bermuda Triangle look like a brightly lit room, compared to the shadowy abyss of the New Guinea jungles. Something gets lost there - don't plan on ever finding it. IMHO.

I watched this 100 minute "show" because of my job. Every second was painfull, as the presenter literally kept making things up as he went along.

There is no actual evidence on anything that being presented. Every unsubstantiatedspeculation turns into a certainty that matches with the presenters "theory" about the plane backtracking and crashing to Papua N. Guinea.

The most "in your face" mumbo jumbo?

They find two holes side by side on solid rock, and the presenter decides that it is for sure "an australian combat boot foot print that was petrified with time".

If it wasn't for making money out of a TV show, nobody in his right mind would start such an expedition to Papua N Guinea, because of a hunch and some vague or faked "evidence".

Total waste of time, frustrating dialogues, totally unscientific claims and shenanigans.

This content is intented for people that have no idea about how anything in the world works. Conspiracy theorist's galore.

I can't even describe how bad this is and just garbage. Doesn't show anything new, just a fairy tale story. Glad I watched during a slow night at work and didn't waste my actual time. I'd be embarrassed to have been featured in this.

On top that the acting is terrible and obviously staged every step of the way. Like the other review said "clickbait". And then they use it as a point to try and push feminist viewpoints. Yes she was ahead of her time but she was the one that pushed woman's rights forward. Please don't waste your time with this. I promise you will be heavily disappointed and regret it.
