    Brilliant Documentary

    Filmmakers were on the ground with the rioting mob that day risking their own life and safety to document history. As a result we watch up close the Capitol Police and the DC Police being beaten and pushed and overwhelmingly outnumbered for hours to protect the seat of US government and its elected members (knowing that if they used their weapons it would be catastrophic to hundreds). Their brave, selfless, savvy and exhausting performance to do their jobs against all odds is brilliantly captured in this film. They are every-day men and women who became American heroes who saved lives and protected the foundation of our democracy. We see first hand the human and institutional damage caused by the angry mob (both inside and outside of the US Capitol) and its intent to stop the democratic Constitutional process of the peaceful transfer of power of a US Presidency. The filmmakers continually use a model of the Capitol, as well as a time stamp, to show the viewer the different entries that were breached and how close the mob was to the elected officials throughout the day. One comes away with even more dismay at how this could go on for hours, 3.5 miles from the Pentagon and.15 blocks from White House, without any intervention and assistance from the President and the military.

    Dry retelling of a Terrible time

    Good effort in telling the story of this day by those involved, and stock footage.

    You only have to look at the way people voted on IMDB to see how extreme the differing views are. That so many believe theories and questionable facts, when reality is staring them in the face is perhaps the worst part.

    A reasonable, even good, documentary of that terrible day. The complete and utter failure on so many levels should frighten anyone who sees the peaceful transfer of power as being a norm of democracies. I can forgive people who were angry, even those who were violent, they were fooled by those who knew the facts, and didn't care, using them for callous political advantage.

    Even after this terrible time, 147 Republicans representative failed to do their constitutional duty, and certify the election later that same day. Where is the shame?

    Essential viewing

    Hard, but essential viewing. Ignore the ratings of the fascist bots. A modern history of political zombies whipped into a moronic frenzy by the Idiot in Chief, who, to this day, is astoundingly still not in jail. It is a miracle this did not end up in a bloodbath, like it so very nearly could have.

    Show it in schools.

    for me...

    As a grumpy old bystander, who knows a little bit about u.s politics from my high school years, and i bet that i know more than 90% of the u.s population about political usa, than u.s citizens knows about my own country , norway, a land of peace and beauty where the king still may take his walking stick for a stroll down the main street of the capital, and where the police just have been allowed to carry weapons as part of their uniform... it seems so ludicrous that its the french naudet-brothers that hands over this panzerblasting documentary about the capitol siege... just like they documented the socalled conspiratious event called '' 9/11'' with sequels, a film i usually view every fall just to remember what its all about...

    the naudets do such a grave job that everything after this would be kindergarten stuff of highly partisan conspiracy stuff, that noone at either side would like nor hate vice versa...

    so if you are in for a buffet of french documentary brilliance with codus on insight and objectivity, then this is my recommend, i know that 50% of the u.s population disagrees, but that is why we have political observers around the world.

    Witness the denial in the reviews

    The only thing more disturbing than the disgraceful behavior of the bigots and criminals who shamed our country on that day is the willful ignorance, denial and absurdity of those who still insist there's nothing to see here.

    We are truly living in bizarre times when this amount of direct, firsthand evidence is STILL not enough for those who wish to believe in an alternative reality. Watching this footage, one can only marvel at the mental gymnastics and cognitive dissonance required to twist this into "fake news" or "it's Pelosis fault". In decades to come our descendants will be appalled. One can only hope they at least find some wry humor in the ridiculousness of self-proclaimed "patriots" violently attacking the US Capitol.
