    Best story telling

    Now this is how documentaries should be made! The flow is nice and there are many twists. Certainly not biased and let's the viewer decide and best of all it is entertaining. Thank you and thank God I don't leave in Manaus

    Great storytelling

    What a surprise! This documentary was unusually well done: very detailed, mostly unbiased (to my non Brazilian eyes at least) and engaging. Some parts were a bit too long but the pacing was overall good: I really wanted to know more about what happened and the interviews were interesting and not just a boring filler.

    I still can't decide....??

    Brilliant documentary.... But I still can't decide if he's guilty or not, which shows what a great job the documentary makers made of creating an unbiased program. I'm leaning towards he was innocent, and the Families of the North were responsible..... What do YOU think?

    Journalism, crime and political prosecution.

    "Killer Ratings", sensationalism and questioning the integrity of the program / reporter is just as much about Canal Livre's integrity, as it is about the people who covered Wallace's case afterwards.

    This is an extremely well paced and detailed documentary which I'm giving the high rating in particular for it's unbiased storytelling. There isn't just one side or one argument being told here, the audience is left to make their own conclusion. Like a jury in a court, you hear all the evidence and then have to conclude who you believe. Each side contradicting each other, with no obvious answer to the question.

    It also goes through just the sickening level of crime, drugs and corruption in Brazil. Really astonishing, even provoking. The problems are so deep rooted. Highly recommend giving this a watch if you're serious about crime documentaries. Yes it is a bit long, but it also goes into extensive details. It's not just repeating same information over and over or getting sidetracked - as some documentaries do.

    The way they told the story was fantastic

    Brilliant way to tell a story putting all the perspectives from the characters to the viewer and let them choose what to believe, one of the best Brazilian Documentaries ever made
