About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an intense, animated documentary about war and journalism that mixes interviews with dramatized scenes; Not for you if you want a neutral history lesson or a purely live-action approach like Cold Case Hammarskjöld.
Pros: gripping war reporting; striking animated-doc blend; intense, immersive mood | Cons: feels politically slanted; uneven animation switches; loud, distracting audio
