    Edge of the seat viewing

    This was a really good HBO documentary about a single terrorist attack in Kenya. I'd followed the story at the time but this captured the suspense and the horror of the unfolding situation in a truly remarkable way. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.

    Brilliant documentary

    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.

    Horrifying but well-made documentary

    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.

    About the bravery of the civilians

    Chilling HBO documentary covering the upmarket Westgate shopping mall shooting in Nairobi, Kenya. Mostly pieced together by surveillance footage (and even some cellphone video), leaving the viewer to get as up close and personal as a retelling account can get. The film lets the horror unfold without pulling any punches, an approach that makes this documentary recommended only for the strong stomached viewer. TERROR AT THE MALL is an overall commendable piece for highlighting the bravery of the civilians, and also making its focus on the victims as opposed to the shooters.

    ***½ (out of four)

    Intensity on steroids!

    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...
