      To summarized

      A perfect reflection of the wise and very old saying: "With friends like that who needs enemy".

      It needed to be Said

      This documentary is masterfully done , it is a " Must watch " for it's quality editing and directing let alone the amazing soundtrack

      That said this documentary perfectly captures the American - Saudi relations in the last century and not just what happened to one individual

      and for those saying that the narrative is one sided or biased , well ... alive people tend to show up one way or another and it has been 3 years since Jamal walked in to the embassy so ,,,,

      If he comes out next weekend , I will happy to have been proven wrong but in the mean while

      " The sound of freedom and truth should ring loudly " and in my opinion this documentary is is a great place to start " .

      Journalists hyperbolizing their influence

      It's just that, trash. Journalists trying to hyperbolize their importance in the world. A world where journalists make billions of dollars faking news. Looks a lot like hollywood spoiling itself.

      M.B.S. is Evil !

      As one that is well aware of the goings on of the Saudi Government and the attrocities it is inflicting on Yemen. I learnt little new details. However, when it is put together as they have in this well made documentary, You truly come to appreciate how CRUEL and CRIMINAL the current saudi royal family is especially Mister Bone Saw.

      Do Not Be Fooled By The Low Rating.

      Throwaway account for obvious reasons.

      The low ratings are done by Saudi 's paid puppets and bots and believe me they're A LOT.

      Khashoggi's murder details were thoroughly manipulated by the kingdom and the truth was never shown to Saudi citizens and a lot of the world population. This movie is the perfect representation of the case. I hope more people see it and open their eyes towards this fascist regime forming right in front of our eyes.
