Attentat de Boston: Le marathon et la traque

Very well done and sad. Great storytelling and detailing of the events with lots of footage. One of the most overall well constructed documentaries ive seen.

The only thing that was missing for me was at times it felt like too many/irrelevant perspectives were offered that bogged down a tad bit from the actual story.

I liked this docuseries. I like that the show focused more on the investigation than on the bombers. It didn't glamorize them or make them look 'badass'. It showed them as criminals with miserable life who did terrible things and ruined other's lives.

The series showed real footage, mixed with a reenactment, and interviews that show what happened. It's so sad to see how the bombing messed up the people and the city, but also interesting to see how the city fought back and helped each other. The show also explores the reasons why the guys did it and how they got brainwashed. Overall, i think it's a good docuseries.

So I'll start by sharing that the documentary coverage of this tragic event was well done. They did a great job of capturing the horror and trauma of the victims. The viewer is able to really get inside the emptions and shock felt by those present and those impacted by what happened. My heart truly goes out to the victims of this horrible act of terrorism. Another positive is the coverage of the investigation and manhunt for the perpetrators. I thought they did an excellent job of capturing this thing from the perspective of those in law enforcement. But I will say that the choices of some of the other commentary were just horrible. One prime example is the investigative journalist (Phillip Martin). I'm sorry, but this guy was just a joke. Every single thing he said was sharply slanted against law enforcement. He was so painfully transparent in his hate for law enforcement, with nothing but sharp criticism for every single thing they did. The law enforcement officials were tasked with such an incredibly difficult job in this scenario. You can't blame the police because a bomber is shooting at them. Are they not supposed to shoot back? Wasn't it their primary job to bring in the perpetrators and stop them from taking any more acts of terror? If they hadn't caught these guys, who knows what they'd have done next. The investigative journalist obviously had no clue at all about what it's like to be taking fire and putting your life on the line to stop a terrorist. They also interviewed one of the friends of the younger bomber, and he was angered when they finally caught him because they thought he might be dead. How inconceivably insensitive to the victims of these guys' horrible act! Anyway, these views really bothered me and completely turned me off whenever these interviewees opened their mouths. Other than that, it was a good ducumentary about this situation.

This three-part series is a broad and profound look into the events, and people, connected with the bombing at the 2013 Boston Marathon. It's an especially interesting character study of those who were responsible for the bombing, and of those who were most affected on the day of the Marathon- and the week that followed. The actual terrorists, the local Boston Police, the FBI, along with the local and National Media, are all examined and well represented. Those who were interviewed all have very intriguing stories to tell. Extremely well edited and produced with emotional testimonies. It was compelling from start to finish. I highly recommend this docuseries as it was well worth the three hours. I give it a strong 8. If you're even remotely interested to know what happened at the 2013 Boston Marathon, watch this, right now.

Generally this was a good documentary, not wasting your time, to the point and telling the story from many different perspectives such as the victims, police, fbi, etc. It does miss more proper investigation into their family and actually talking to the perpetrator though.

I would have rated this much higher, if it wasn't for some of their extremely out of place interviewees as Phillip Martin. He's a "journalist" who does nothing but complain about law enforcement, much more concerned about the well-being of the perpetrator than any victim. His narrow-minded ideologies are just glowing. Secondly we have the muslim friend who's also much more concerned about muslims getting a bad reputation, than innocent people getting killed or actually having muslims commit less terrorism. We all know Netflix added these for DEI. It only drags down the integrity of the rest of the series.

That being said. If you can ignore those parts, the rest is a good retelling of the investigation following the bombing.
