Documentary Month 2015!

If there is one genre of film I have almost no experience with, it's the humble documentary. I have attempted to break into this medium for a long time, however I have never been able to find the time. Now, in the month of February, I will watch and review as many documentary films as I can!

Here's a list of films I wish to cover in this month. I may not cover them all, and I may cover some films not on this list at all, however it should give you an idea of what to expect this month (I have not seen any of these films as of the time of posting this update [all dates provided by IMDB and not verified]).

  • A Letter to Zachary (2008)
  • Blackfish (2013)
  • Bowling for Columbine (2002)
  • Burden of Dreams (1982)
  • Catfish (2010)
  • Cave of Forgotten Dreams (2010)
  • Exit Through the Gift Shop (2010)
  • Grizzly Man (2005)
  • Haxan (1922)
  • Hearts of Darkness (1991)
  • Indie Game: The Movie (2012)
  • Into the Abyss (2011)
  • Jesus Camp (2006)
  • Jiro Dreams of Sushi (2011)
  • Jodorowsky's Dune (2014)
  • Leviathan (2012)

  • This Film is Not Yet Rated (2006)
  • Waltz with Bashir (2008)


  • The Month will last between Jan 28th - Feb 28th and I aim to review at least 10 documentaries. Bear in mind that the issues with frequent uploads due to college are still very much in effect right now, and I still wish to release some other review and list content besides this. With all this in mind, I look forward to diving into this whole new world of film.
