- StarsHarald EiaJørgen LorentzenMartine AurdalInterviewing several Norwegian and international scientists, the documentary series asks whether biology has been underestimated in social sciences.Norwegian documentary that you can find on youtube. Clearly the best documentary ever made as it is the only one of its kind. It focuses on interviewing scientists and comparing their data. This is not just a great documentary but great science presented so that all can understand it. Already a classic.
- DirectorSteve JamesStarsWilliam GatesArthur AgeeEmma GatesA film following the lives of two inner-city Chicago boys who struggle to become college basketball players on the road to going professional.This is the best documentary that is not a series. Clearly the best documentary ever made. When I see a "top ##" lists of best documentaries ever made and this one is not in top 5 I stop reading. This documentary shows us what human beings are. There is only one way to make a documentary like this one. Film real human beings doing daily stuff for a year or 2.
- DirectorBarbara KoppleStarsMike TysonKevin RooneyDesiree WashingtonFilmmaker Barbara Kopple profiles the life and career of former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson and the surrounding events that led to his 1992 6 year prison conviction.The one with black and white scenes in it.
- DirectorKevin MacdonaldStarsSimon YatesJoe SimpsonBrendan MackeyThe true story of two climbers and their perilous journey up the west face of Siula Grande in the Peruvian Andes in 1985.This is again an incredible documentary about survival. A lot of documentaries and movies are copying its style now - for obvious reasons.
- StarsDavid McCulloughSam WaterstonJulie HarrisA comprehensive survey of the American Civil War.Ken Burns is the best documentary maker of all time. And all of his documentaries are incredible. But this one is a 101 on how to make a historical documentary. This style has been copied at least 1000 times. If the style was copyrighted he would be a billionaire.
- CreatorRandall MoldaveEric SmallStarsPenn JilletteTellerShera PollinsThe comedy illusionist duo explore various topics and debunk what they consider misconceptions about them.Very education and entertaining at the same time. A lot of episodes will blow your mind. So basic, yet so ignored. Their ultra libertarianism might be a bit too much at times. But their political conviction seems to guide them onto the right track most of the time. Lacks an episode on nuclear power among other things.
- DirectorKen BurnsStarsJack JohnsonKeith DavidSamuel L. JacksonThe story of Jack Johnson, the first African-American Heavyweight boxing champion.Ken Burns... on one of the greatest athletes who has ever lived.
- StarsSigourney WeaverDavid AttenboroughNikolay DrozdovA documentary series on the wildlife found on Earth. Each episode covers a different habitat: deserts, mountains, deep oceans, shallow seas, forests, caves, polar regions, fresh water, plains and jungles. Narrated by David Attenborough.The go to documentary while high. While David Attenborough is not as informative as he should be it is still an amazing spectacle and a must watch for all ages and still very informative. Fantastic. Now we need more documentaries in this quality but with tons of information in them too.
- DirectorSeth GordonStarsSteve WiebeBilly MitchellMark AlpigerDie-hard gamers compete to break world records on classic arcade games.A good vs bad documentary from the country of media manipulation. Such a great story.
- DirectorJean-Xavier de LestradeStarsAnn FinnellPatrick McGuinnessJames WilliamsOscar-winning documentary that documents a murder trial in which a 15-year-old African-American is wrongfully accused of a 2000 murder in Jacksonville, Florida.Hi... you there... watch this documentary. It is very good. As someone studying psychology this is a documentary that blew my mind. I knew all this. But you are always surprised when you see people as stupid as the psychology books say they are.
- StarsDorothy WilliamsonDonald WorsterTimothy EganA documentary about the 1930s drought of North American prairie farm land, and its consequences during the great depression.Watch the rest of the scenes used in Interstellar. But it is much better than Interstellar even though the movie is good too.
- StarsNeil deGrasse TysonChristopher EmersonKeythe FarleyAn exploration of our discovery of the laws of nature and coordinates in space and time.Really good. Very informative documentary on space, physics and the story about our discovery of these things. The CGI effects are worth a watch by themselves, but they are only there to educate you. Neil deGrasse Tyson is born for tv.
- DirectorRobert StoneStarsStewart BrandRichard RhodesGwyneth CravensThe atomic bomb and meltdowns like Fukushima have made nuclear power synonymous with global disaster. But what if we've got nuclear power wrong?Very good. Great job by everyone involved. I highly recommend this documentary to everyone who want to know about radiation, environment, energy sources, society and such.
- DirectorBanksyStarsBanksyMr. BrainwashSpace InvaderFollowing the style of some of the world's most prolific street artists, an amateur filmmaker makes a foray into the art world.Another A to B documentary. A story about a man. This is a bit like a movie. A Borat type of documentary. But the most important things in it is our reaction to modern art. And all the reactions are real. Another must watch documentary to understand the concept of modern art.
- DirectorRon BergerDan KloresStarsDon DunphyBenny ParetEmile GriffithA story of violence, love, sex, politics and media centered around the life of Griffith, a six-time world welterweight champion.
- StarsPeter CoyotePete HamillCatherine Gilbert MurdockThe story of the American activist struggle against the influence of alcohol, climaxing in the failed early 20th century nationwide era when it was banned.Ken Burns... one of his best. This is something everyone in Europe has heard about. But we never understood how the most libertarian country in the world could forbid an essential part of mans diet.
- StarsLukás JuzaBernt HahnEpic documentary. I wish all history documentaries were made like this. Even if you are not interested in the Jews you will like this documentary.
- StarsPeter CoyoteN. Scott MomadayMurphy GuyerStephen Ives' "The West" is a PBS 4-Video Series co-produced by Ken Burns: - "Death Runs Riot" 85 min. - "Fight No More Forever" 85 min. - "Ghost Dance" 58 min. - "The People" 82 min.Ken Burns produced... which makes is great but not incredible. A few pretentious interviews drag it down. But it is still a must watch for all human beings.
- DirectorBarak GoodmanDaniel AnkerStarsFrances McDormandStanley TucciAndre BraugherThe history of the "Scottsboro Boys," a group of African American men who were victims of a racist miscarriage of justice that became a national controversy.The story is amazing. Nothing subjective just presenting the story as it was. About bigots, blacks, a Jew and much more.
- DirectorMarina ZenovichStarsCrystal MangumJoe AllevaBradley BannonA documentary examination of the accusations of sexual misconduct against the Duke University lacrosse team that were ultimately found to be baseless

- DirectorMichael MooreStarsMichael MooreCharlton HestonMarilyn MansonFilmmaker Michael Moore explores the roots of America's predilection for gun violence.Yes, Michael Moore is very subjective. A millionaire knowing what people want to see on screen. But here he archives to present a very interesting story with real issues.
- DirectorJohn DowerStarsJoe FrazierMarvis FrazierThomas HauserA detailed examination of the intense rivalry between the two heavyweight boxing champions, Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali.
- DirectorGeoffrey O'ConnorStarsLouis TherouxLouis stays with the residents of a soon to open brothel in Nevada for a few weeks.All Louis Theroux documentaries not set in England are great. But this one is one of the best and the most touching.
- DirectorChristopher SykesStarsRichard FeynmanRalph LeightonThe story of physicist Richard Feynman's fascination with - and efforts to visit - a remote country in the center of Asia, called Tannu Tuva, "the land where the reindeer meets the camel".Who is your favorite physicist? I didn't want to watch it when I saw that it was about an imagined travel and not physics. But I am glad I watched it anyway. Like watching a documentary about Tom Cruise doing origami - and being great at it.
- DirectorAlex GibneyStarsLance ArmstrongReed AlbergottiBetsy AndreuA documentary chronicling sports legend Lance Armstrong's improbable rise and ultimate fall from grace.10 years ago a documentary like this would change the world. Now it seems like common knowledge. But it is still very interesting. The most interesting story from cycling.
- StarsJim Al-KhaliliThe story of the discovery that everything is made from atoms, one of the greatest scientific breakthroughs in history, and the brilliant minds behind it.Very informative, intellectual and philosophical. Top quality.
- StarsFathi El-AbedValdemar MikolajekLui BeilinDocumentary series about refugees coming to Denmark.Danish documentary. But still good enough to be on this list. Someone just has to make subtitles for it and upload it on youtube. I have it on my PC.
- DirectorJim MilioStarsEmmett DahlenMarina DahlenKaneCesar helps a vicious Chihuahua and a neurotic Great Dane.1 episode of this show teaches us a very important lesson. That animals have behaviors and can be trained by adjusting their behavior patterns. It made me think about children and how we raise them - an how we can and cannot raise them.
- DirectorTristan QuinnStarsSteven MackintoshThad AllenPat CampbellA look into a massive oil mining accident that allowed over 5000 barrels of oil a day into the Gulf of Mexico for over 87 days.I remember watching this and thinking it was incredible. I love these kind of great quality documentaries that don't force a subjective message upon the viewer but are very informative. Since then I have been watching both PBS and BBC documentaries like crazy.
- DirectorSarah ColtStarsOliver PlattHenry FordSteven WattsHENRY FORD paints a fascinating portrait of a farm boy who rose from obscurity to become the most influential American innovator of the 20th century.Does what it sets out to do. So there is really not much going against it. And as the man is both interesting and important this documentary is good. It could have had a bit more information in it. But this is one of the best American Experience documentaries out there.
- DirectorMichael TolajianStarsRick AdelmanDanny AingeKenny AndersonDrazen Petrovic and Vlade Divac were two friends who grew up together sharing the common bond of basketball. Together, they lifted the Yugoslavian National team to unimaginable heights. After conquering Europe, they both went to America where they became the first two foreign players to attain NBA stardom. But with the fall of the Soviet Union on Christmas Day 1991, Yugoslavia split up. A war broke out between Petrovic's Croatia and Divac's Serbia. Long buried ethnic tensions surfaced. And these two men, once brothers, were now on opposite sides of a deadly civil war. As Petrovic and Divac continued to face each other on the basketball courts of the NBA, no words passed between the two. Then, on the fateful night of June 7, 1993, Drazen Petrovic was killed in an auto accident. "Once Brothers" will tell the gripping tale of these two men, how circumstances beyond their control tore apart their friendship, and whether Divac has ever come to terms with the death of a friend before they had a chance to reconcile.This is like stepping into another world. A few documentaries will make you think about how the hell it was possible for you to know nothing about the subject they present. This is one of those documentaries. After watching it I was blown away by how deep and interesting the story was. There are no good or evil sides here, but you think there are.
- StarsRobin EllisSlobodan MilosevicFranjo TudjmanThis documentary series covers the struggles of the Yugoslavian people during the collapse of their country, and the subsequent wars to finally find hope with the signing of the Final Peace Accords.
- DirectorRicki SternAnne SundbergStarsEvelyn JeffersonFred FlaglerJohn Reeves"The Trials of Darryl Hunt" is a feature documentary about a brutal rape/murder case and a wrongly convicted man, Darryl Hunt, who spent nearly twenty years in prison for a crime he did not commit. Both a social justice story and a personally driven narrative, the film chronicles this capital case from 1984 through 2004. With exclusive footage from two decades, the film frames the judicial and emotional response to a chilling crime - and the implications that reverberate from Hunt's conviction - against a backdrop of class and racial bias in the South and in the American criminal justice system. This documentary is the culmination of ten years of research and filming. In 1993, inspired by claims of injustice and police conspiracy, the filmmakers began to shoot in North Carolina. Working from a mix of formats (16mm and 24P video) the film melds the visceral reality of a murder case with first person accounts and cinematic imagery, illuminating perceptions and memories of events as they unfolded for the people closest to this haunting story. This unique look at one man's loss and redemption challenges the assumption that all Americans have the right to unbiased justice. Hunt's story - while one man's personal journey - reflects systemic issues of national concern: cross-racial eyewitness identification, prosecutorial misconduct, inexperienced defense attorneys assigned to capital cases, racial bias in death penalty cases and errors in police procedure. Barry Scheck from The Innocence Project, who worked on Hunt's case for ten years, and Gary Wells, professor and eyewitness expert, offer concrete examples where errors occurred in Hunt's saga and offer future remedies and effective ideas to prevent future "Darryl Hunts." Hunt himself addresses the need for systemic reforms to prevent wrongful convictions, underscoring the haunting reality that Hunt could have been sentenced to death and we would never have known this story.
- 1974– 1h 52mTV-PG8.5 (212)TV EpisodeDirectorGary JohnstoneJoseph McMasterStarsJay BenedictMatthew ChapmanAnthony EdridgeThe account of the legal battle in Dover, Pennsylvania over the required teaching of the religious-based "intelligence design" as supposedly a legitimate scientific alternative to evolution in the local public school.At first I didn't add this documentary to my favorite list. It is a bit too specific and is about ignorant, manipulative people. I would not add a documentary about vaccines-cause-autism fanatics, so why this? It is a great courtroom drama where we see the good side study the opposite sides case in very deep detail. And we see the ignorant guys try to hide all the evidence but digging bigger holes for themselves. And ignorant religious fanatics use the USA constitution to support their cause. Who will win? Who will lose?
- DirectorDaniel GordonStarsMargaret AspinallGraham BurtonEric CampbellA look at the events of 15 April 1989 at Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield, England which led to the death of 96 football supporters, and the legacy of what is now known as the "Hillsborough Disaster".Disturbing. But it tells the universal story of corruption by power. And this story is very important to understand our societal structures. Very moving at the end. Watch it when you have a good day and few *beep* to give.
- StarsKenneth BranaghStockard ChanningLarry AgenbroadUsing the latest digital technology, the era between the dinosaurs and man is superbly recreated by the BBC and Discovery Channel in another winning production from the coalition.This is very informative. The very best in the Walking with... series. And it has a lot of illustrations on what animals were our ancestors. Which is both unique and exiting.
- A look at how man kind not only impacts, but shapes the world to make previously insurmountable obstacles a thing of the past.Very interesting documentary about big constructions on our planet. I love this one. I really hope to see a lot more documentaries about big constructions. I have seen quite a few of them but they are usually way over the top documentaries that try to impress the viewer with big words and flashy images every few seconds. This one is high quality.
- DirectorSimon SinghStarsEve MathesonJohn CoatesJohn ConwayIf you are looking for a documentary for highly intelligent people look no further. This is the documentary that is the form for all documentaries about scientific discoveries. Really interesting. It made me very happy and excited while I watched it. As with many of these Horizon documentaries there is both a NOVA and Horizon version of it.
- StarsDonald SutherlandDaniel YerginNorman CooleyThe globe-spanning story of the oil industry from the first strikes of the 19th century through the Gulf War. The industry's colorful characters and oil's key role in 20th century history are brought to life by participants and historians.
- DirectorPeter SchnallStarsRobert RedfordDustin HoffmanJon StewartLooks back at Watergate, the original game changer of America politics. How has Watergate changed the Presidency? What effect has the scandal had on our political leaders? And has hope and optimism forever been replaced in our national dialogue by doubt and cynicism? 2013 marks 40 years since 1973 - Watergate's most pivotal year. Reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein doggedly investigated the scandal exposing the long, twisted trail of cover-ups and lies.
- DirectorKurt KuenneStarsKurt KuenneAndrew BagbyDavid BagbyA filmmaker decides to memorialize a murdered friend when his friend's ex-girlfriend announces she is expecting his son.Another god vs bad documentary with a clear story structure. Of cause this also feels like it is set up like the others. So these kind of documentaries are to me very controversial as you don't know how much of them is the truth. But as the stories are always about unknown people it doesn't really matter as much.
- DirectorErna BuffieStarsNora YoungFrom PBS - Hard core science is effortlessly integrated with a light-hearted look at how plants behave, revealing a world where plants are as busy, responsive and complex as we are. From the stunning heights of the Great Basin Desert to the lush coastal rainforests of west coast Canada, scientist J.C. Cahill takes us on a journey into the "secret world of plants," revealing an astonishing landscape where plants eavesdrop on each other, talk to their allies, call in insect mercenaries and nurture their young. It is a world of pulsing activity, where plants communicate, co-operate and, sometimes, wage all-out war. So come along for the ride and discover that plants are a lot less passive and a lot more intelligent than you think!Do plants communicate? Yes. How do they do it? These scientists have great hypothesis to answer that question. A documentary about plants so interesting that animals seem boring in comparison.
- StarsNiall FergusonGareth ArmstrongRichard LinternNiall Ferguson takes us on a historical adventure through the ascent of money, applying fact and opinion throughout.Very rich on information. It ends on a low note as he starts hypothesizing in the last episode. But up to that point it is just an information bomb. The biggest problem is that it is not an even greater information bomb. When you try to explain the whole history of economics you will always leave big holes in your story. And some of these holes might seem purposeful. So it is not conclusive in any way. But economics has to be explained in a 100 hours long documentary to truly be understood.

- DirectorJason ReidStarsJohn KeisterKevin CalabroPercy AllenExposing the truth behind the Seattle SuperSonics' tragic exodus after 41 years in the Emerald City.I watched it for free on youtube. Who makes a documentary on this level and makes it free? And why haven't I heard about this before I saw this documentary? For someone used to a capitalistic sport structures in Europe the communistic top down management of USA leagues blew my mind. I still don't get it. This is terrible. Why would anyone want to watch sport in leagues as terrible as these?
- DirectorMark ZwonitzerMichael ChinStarsThalia MassieThomas MassieGrace Hubbard FortescueIn 1931, Honolulu's tropical tranquility was shattered when a young Navy wife made an allegation of rape against five islanders.
- DirectorDavis GuggenheimStarsCharles AdamsJonathan AlterRobert BalfanzAn examination of the current state of education in America today.Very interesting documentary about the fight for a good education for their kids. Not conclusive in any way. Does leave a lot out and should have had more opinions from another point of view.
- DirectorAaron WoolfStarsBob BledsoeEarl L. ButzDawn CheneyKing Corn is a feature documentary about two friends, one acre of corn, and the subsidized crop that drives our fast-food nation. In King Corn, Ian Cheney and Curt Ellis, best friends from college on the east coast, move to the heartland to learn where their food comes from. With the help of friendly neighbors, genetically modified seeds, and powerful herbicides, they plant and grow a bumper crop of America's most-productive, most-subsidized grain on one acre of Iowa soil. But when they try to follow their pile of corn into the food system, what they find raises troubling questions about how we eat-and how we farmWhile not a work of art it lingers on in your brain long after you have seen it. And that is the magic of a good documentary. The message is a very important one.
