Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
