Terror at the Mall

This is a detailed a very graphic account of a terrible tragedy. Very well documented which sparks so many questions about not only the worst side of Islam but the inept, incapable and corrupt side of Kenya. It also shows the very best in Humanity when it comes to helping one another, some true heroes and heroines who need to be congratulated on their bravery.

Top documentary! But found the the Kenyan response frustrating and as I would imagine an unskilled force to be. At no point during the documentary was there any mention of an outside help like the off duty British Special Forces soldier that entered the mall and retrieved several hostages? Despite the CCTV footage being brilliantly strung together and documented it seemed the local forces and police responded in quite a poor and untrained Manor.

Having lived in Kenya for nearly 7 years as a child this nation has always felt like a second home to me.

Watching this documentary I was in tears. Tears mixed with anger, horror, shock and repulsion for those who carried out this cowardly and disgusting act. An act supposedly carried out in the name of religion .... hence my want and belief to have NO part in religion whatsoever. Any person who dresses up such actions as these in the name of religion does not warrant any place on this earth at all in my book.

Praise indeed to the people who tell their story of survival and the people behind piecing the footage together. The resultant viewing is.... well beyond words, and even this review to me can never reflect the disgust for parts of the human race. How? Why? Why hurt, kill and subject people to such horrors?

Well done to the makers. Thank you for telling a story which needed to be told.

For those who survived; I cannot imagine your thoughts, the terror and sense of hopelessness when facing such a display of brutality. I only hope you lives now are peaceful, full of love and you're able to live as good a life as you possibly can after this.

An entire documentary of footage from the event is hard to come by. I have a hard time watching anything without doing something while I watch and I watched this in its entirety without taking my eyes off the screen. It was in part morbid fascination but mainly I was just enthralled and caught up in what was happening. There were a lot of very brave people in that mall and I hope all of them have recovered from whatever wounds, physical or mental, they received.

And the Kenyan army in 2014? Absolutely useless.

After watching this I feel like it took 3 hours. It is so intense that the body feels like it's been through a marathon. One of the most horrific things I have ever seen...
