    I'm a sucker for a good documentary myself. I tend to go through all the documentaries in Netflix. I'll put up a few suggestions of mine when I get home and can access it. But yeah.. the ones you said, definitely awesome.

    Another really good one that I highly recommend.

    this was interesting, although it's kinda feels scripted, it's really a must watch if youre into the street art culture


    this Doc was a response to Morgan Spurlock's Supersize me, Tom Naughton tries to disprove Spurlock's movie, and proves that you can eat fast food and infact lose weight,
    it's a good watch if you have already seen Supersize Me


    if you love military Docs then you'd love Restrepo, it chronicles the deployment of a platoon of U.S. soldiers in Afghanistans Korengal Valley.
    In fearful day, in raging night,
    With strong hearts full, our souls ignite,
    When all seems lost in the War of Light,
    Look to the stars-- For hope burns bright!

    I like pretty much anything to do with military or weapons. I'm not particular to one certain one.

    That's Banksy's film right? I really want to see that! How was it?

    My favourite documentary is Alone In Four Walls or Allein in vier Wänden. It is about youth crime in Russia and centres around a youth rehabilitation center. Really good!



    Also, 3 Shots That Changed America is about JFK's assassination. Really good. Really well done. It is a minute by minute recount of the days leading up to and after his arrival in Dallas. As a non-American I really enjoyed this but I'm sure Americans would too.

    Do you understand what I'm talking about? Have you ever felt like that? When you just couldn't feel anything and you didn't want to either.

    I might need to check out that Alone In Four Walls. That looks like something up my alley. I haven't watched many recently.. but looks like it's something I'll do this weekend.

    Off the top of my head... Blue Gold: World Water Wars is an excellent documentary that everyone should watch. Fantastic and terrifying. Absolutely MUST see.

    Countdown to Zero is also good.
