Parkland: Inside Building 12

I don't know if I would go as far to call it truly exploitative or disrespectful, but it rides the line at a couple of points (Minn's interviewing style is sometimes a little aggressive though, considering some of the interviewees, for sure).

The other potential issue is the length and the repetition. It's technically not very competent, in terms of how it looks and is cut together, and does get by because of the content and some of the emotional stories recounted... and the fact that I think at its core, it's intentions are ultimately good.

I highly recommend a warning for individuals who lost someone in a mass shooting be added. There is not currently one and after less than 15 minutes I could watch no more. For those who don't know what it is like this is very educational but for those who have lost someone in this manner a disclaimer should be added because this was damaging to my recovery from grief because I didn't understand how real it would be because there was no opening disclaimer to warn me.

A very real, raw, emotional exploration of the entirely avoidable tragedy that unfolded on Valentines Day 2018.

Unfortunately the director is at various points grossly insensitive and intrusive in his questioning of survivors in a way that is very uncomfortable to watch.

Documentary is well done and I enjoyed as much as you can a documentary on such a horrific tragedy. However.... The interviewer conversing with the parents was too straightforward. He comes across as harsh and truly lacking in compassion.. kind of ruins the whole thing as I became distracted by my anger for this guy who I believe is the director, Charlie Minn.

Graphics at the beginning are very well done and as the dots change from green to yellow or blue, your heart really breaks because these are such senseless lives lost.

I wish they would have delved a little more into the shooters possible motivations and outcome.

The director turned what could have been an important documentary into exploitation at its worst. The gut-wrenching questions to the families and the survivors were absolutely shameful. The 20/20 hindsight and finger pointing clearly show where the director wanted this tripe to go. If you enjoy suffering and the blame game, watch this one. If you don't, watch something else. This film is terrible in every sense.
