Watch Wormwood For Free

Wow! Such a good movie.

The Age of Commercialism

The first must-see film of the year.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Errol Morris tells us the story in his unique, delightful and exquisite way. How can even somebody so elegantly harmonize poetry, Shekaspeare, CIA and Olson Family's life after Frank Olson's death. About Eric Olson, I guess words can only do harms. Such a brilliant and perceptive mind! The way he perceives the world is unprecedented. I can say that I have never seen such a connection capacity as Eric Olson has. How can he connect X and Y in a way that hits the nail right on the head in a poetric way. Collage would be the answer!

Wormwood has a compelling story about a possible CIA assassination of an army scientist, but the series fails to captivate you enough to be wowed. I have seen great documentaries and terrible documentaries, but this is what you would call a hot mess documentary. The story talks about Dr. Frank Olson's alleged suicide and the CIA's involvment along with some background into biological warfare used during the Korean war. The family of Dr. Olson, particularly his son, digs into the incident which was initially ruled a suicide until evidence suggested otherwise leading into an investigation. I don't want to give too much detail, because it is worth watching and putting the story together yourself. You just have to be alert and patient. This is not the type of documentary you show to people with low attention span or severe multi-taskers.The series was poorly made and presented. Each episode you have a lot of filler scenes of nothing really going on that pertains to the story. This is not something you watch at night after a long day of work, because you will fall asleep during one of their nothing scenes. There was no need for six episodes at all. If you eliminate the fifteen to twenty minutes of silent scenes then you could probably cut it down to three or four episodes.This series is definitely worth watching, but don't go in with high hopes of expecting high quality footage or a lot of story. It follows like Pulp Fiction where you get bits and pieces of the story at different times. The story is simply not sequential and very difficult to follow, because of its poor execution.

I made it through the first episode on my second try but gave up after the second episode was even more boring. I'm sure there's a good story in this somewhere but the director and actors didn't tell it in this vehicle. In my books it ranks right up there with The English Patient, Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind and Mr. Robot as the alltime boring put-me-to-sleep shows.

I must have been living under a rock all my life! Maybe it's that I'm not a conspiracy theorist... I've heard of the LSD experiments sure, but knowones 'story' ever compelled me to slide down that rabbit hole. This was done well. This isn't a series, it's a true story told with all the teeny tiny dirty details. Very compelling... watched this and read more all in one night, gripping story. Errol Morris did an excellent job!
