Excellent!

I must admit, I knew very a little about this Waco incident before seeing this. This story really points to the ATF and FBI really being the bad guys well more bullies than bad guys. I dunno how much is true but it certainly seems that way based on this portrayal. I was hooked from the start, The acting is amazing and so it the screen play. There are 6 episodes all an hour each and the felt like 5 mins each. I would recommend this mini-series to anyone.

Entertaining, not what everyone says it is

I completely disagree with many of the reviews that I've seen saying that this show "idolized Koresh". What were you guys watching? Koresh was painted in a very good light for the first couple of episodes but beyond that he was very very ugly in this series. They absolutely made a point of showing the pain he inflicted on his people and if you were rooting for him in the end.... I don't know what to tell you, that certainly isn't the vibe I got from the series.

Seems to me this story was well told from both sides. A solid solid 78/100 from an entertainment point of view. I recommend a watch here.

AMAZINGLY GRAVITATING!

All I can say is WOW. Michael Shannon and Taylor Kitsch are incredible in their roles as an FBI agent and cult leader. Although you don't want to root for Kitsch's character, you can't help but be drawn in by his outstanding deliverance from David's vision of the bible. Michael Shannon portrays his character in an exact delivery on an apposite side of what David believed, but has a severe sense of conflict with the FBI that he shows in his alone time.

If this initial episode is just the fire cracker of what we all know is to come, I cannot wait for the following episodes.

Stellar performances by everyone....pulse-pounding....

Every actor in this is incredible. The resemblance of Koresh to Kitsch is uncanny, even the voice. This man has many movies in his future, his acting is superb and the screen loves him. This movie seems pretty accurate so far, and it really delves into the human side of every single person involved. It is almost if there are multiple protagonists - the children, Koresh, the FBI negotiator who clearly wanted to end this with no violence, and the lost souls whom we only slowly get to know. There are no dull moments. I am loving this series so far....

Wow!

This one gave me a lot of insight into the story of what really happened. This is one of the saddest events in history. A lot of lessons can be learned here

Wissenswertes
Revelations of Waco (2018) is a companion documentary series released exclusively on the Paramount Network website and YouTube channel following the initial airing of each episode of the miniseries. The series reveals the true to life details of the Waco siege through interviews with those on both sides of the conflict. Each episode runs between nine and thirteen minutes in length.

Patzer
The military vehicles are older models than those used in the actual siege. This was likely done because the U.S. military would not participate in filming, so the filmmakers had to rely on private collections.

Zitate
[from trailer]
David Koresh: You've looked to me to be your leader. To guide you on this journey. But I'm no leader. I'm a follower, just like you. God has instructed me to stay here and wait for His sign. This is our time to prove through suffering that we are worthy of the miracle that's to come. The Kingdom of Heaven is coming, I promise you.

Crazy Credits

"The Justice Department's Danforth Report in 2000 concluded the fire was started by the Branch Davidians. The report also acknowledged that the FBI had used incendiary flash-bang grenades in the assault."

"Surviving Branch Davidians maintained that there was never a plan for mass suicide."

"FBI negotiators successfully secured the release of 35 Branch Davidians during the siege."

"As a result of the tragedy in Waco, 76 Branch Davidians died in the fire."
