I got the same question as the other reviewer has here? What's that light on the other side if the street just before the victim's car passing by?
Check 45:06 on Netflix and you would clearly see it.
I am confused tbh.
Rating, although no one can deny the racism and corrupted police but why some should ran away from police?

I am white. I am in a Clevelander. I am a criminal defense attorney. I see the injustice every day in Cleveland courts. All the negative reviews about this documentary are by scared white people. We live in a state of fear that has justified police brutality. The documentary is not meandering, it is simply chronological. Black people in Cleveland rarely get justice. We need more justice for people of color, and we need more documentaries like this that tell the true story.
I'm from the UK so over here there's some police brutality, but not as casual as it is in America it seems the system is at fault watching this documentary seeing how some officers react to a situation and see red 137 shots thats absurd give a human a gun and they think they are a GOD that's the way I see it, not saying every single officer is unstable or racist but I think the system needs to background check and control officers that are coming in for example the man who jumped onto the car and fired at the two victims, served in a war in his eyes this situation was like he was back on the front lines, America in general is its own matrix I could never understand the politics and how guns are just essentials over there but it will always be runned by law loving politicians and there will always be corruption....
I remember hearing about this on Fox 8 and this documentary is only telling one side of the story of what really happened. The Cleveland Police did their job. Great shots of Cleveland. Sorry this is not worth watching if the whole truth isn't going to be told. Yes i am from and live in Cleveland and we have a really good Police Force.
Upfront - I am Australian.
Yes, this documentary was largely one sided but any discerning person can tell that the police's behaviour during the various incidents, and in their subsequent interviews and court appearances was deplorable.
But, in their defence ...
If America had sensible gun control laws like the rest of the first world countries, the police probably would behave differently and often would not be put in these situations to start with.
So whilst the documentary is mainly trying to blame the police for the specific incidents described a broader perspective, which was not considered in the documentary, could assign blame to American society as a whole.
