O Monstro ao Lado

This documentary was excellent. I understand why people are angry that the map showed Poland as having death camps but I believe they did that to show us a modern perspective of where this was going on...not that Poland ran the camps or is responsible. To rate this show a 1 out of 10 is just ridiculous!

John Demjanjuk, a Ukrainian born, nationalised American is sent to Israel, facing charges of being Ivan The Terrible.

It's a fascinating series, it is very thought provoking, it's harrowing throughout, you will see some heart breaking scenes, and here some devastating accounts.

You may have to interpret some of the events yourself, and draw your own conclusions, nothing is really proven. The real issue is that the trial comes over forty years free the crimes, so there was always a degree of uncertainty as to Demjanjuk's real identity.

Demjanjuk's flippant attitude in court, really did get to me, he'd have been aware of the situation, the sensitivity, he behaved appallingly.

Once again, we see how damaging false evidence, and how attempts to pervert natural justice can damage a case irreparably.

Very interesting, I know how I felt about him. 8/10.

For those giving this doc a low rating based on their view that it is historically inaccurate...your review is inaccurate and you've missed the whole point. No where in this doc do they accuse the Polish of erecting and running the German built concentration camps on Polish soil. Further, that is not what this is about is it? It's about bringing an accused mass murderer to justice. I for one am perplexed by all the negativity.

When will I stop reading and watching that something happened "In Poland". Did Polish people set up the camps or what? And why are the camps marked on the territory of present Poland that did not exist back then? Nazi Germany were not there or what? And I sympathize with those who lost some family members during Holocaust but even them write "In Poland". Like Nazi Germany either did not exist or were a neighbour state.

What are people getting all crazy about ? It was a good documentary, very interesting.
