Hell on Earth: The Fall of Syria and the Rise of ISIS

Im a fan of Sebastian Junger so i watched this but boy was this a disappointment. It doesnt even try to be objective about the conflict and just blames it all on the EVIL Assad regime.

This is not a good source for information, this is pure propaganda im afraid.

In this "documentary" a girl talks about her friends killed by the Syrian army. Problem is, the brother of a victim (Amin Nakrour) wrote on his facebook page that this girl is a complete unknown in their circle of friends, who anyway were killed by terrorists and not by the army, and he also affirms that in any case the family never gave their permission to use name and photo of the deceased, which were used without their knowledge. Enough to disregard this video production as a bona fide documentary..

Unfortunately, the role of the Kurds is not mentioned in the film. One can not make a documentary about Syrias civil war and Isis without telling the Kurds part in it. It does not get any good, no matter how good it is. The documentary is very well made, but as mentioned, it does not cover the whole story, espousely when it comes to the crack on ISIS.

Chronicles everything the title promises along with the faults of the foreign governments that led it to such a huge atrocity. I was stunned from the first few moments and stayed stunned throughout the runtime. The impact of this film is matched by the importance of it. Some of the reviews here are very misleading because the documentary clearly showed the role of America in the birth of ISIS in Iraq and clearly shows how each incidents in both the countries and the policies of foreign countries that worsened the problems. Clearly there are many who wants to destroy the credibility of this film for the insinuation of the situation.

Any so called "documentary" that constantly and repeatedly promotes crying children and poor innocent civilians, who then preach scripted anti regime slogans for the camera is an instant red flag!

This was tough to watch as there was only so much political drivel I can watch!

This is typical old school propaganda, directly from the North Korean school of Film and Television and it doesn't even try to be objective.

Its is totally bias, unimaginative and shameful as it uses false witnesses, paid commentators and so called experts promoting their book deals to narrate this rubbish.

There is zero objectivity as it attempts to promote a simplistic, black and white, good vs evil narrative for the uninformed western audience and to promote yet another needles war where the only winners are the US arms manufacturers!

Shame on National Geo for creating this trash!
