Murder Among the Mormons is the most recent big-time Netflix docu.
Netflix
incredible original programming like Orange is the New Black and House of Cards, and 광주 성형외과 made power moves with movies like Roma, Marriage Story and The Irishman — but its incredible back catalogue of documentaries may be its most consistent feature.
From Oscar-winning documentaries like Icarus all the way through to crowd-pleasing viral hits like Tiger King, Netflix has documentaries on almost every possible topic. We’ve decided to highlight some of our favourites.
They’re in no particular order, and it’s impossible to represent the broad spectrum of what’s available. We’ve just called out the documentaries we think you can’t miss.
The Last Dance
Netflix
In 2020, in the midst of a pandemic, Netflix dropped this piece of sports doc perfection.
The Last Dance focuses on the Chicago Bulls during their 97-98 NBA title winning season, but really it’s a jumping off point for a documentary that tells the life story of its central star, 광주 성형외과 Michael Jordan.
As a result, many criticized it for being a little too Jordan-focused, but The Last Dance was an event documentary that lived up to the hype.
Murder Among the Mormons
Netflix
Some of Netflix’s more recent true crime documentaries have been a bit bloated and… sorta bad?
Thankfully Murder Among the Mormons is a return to form. Definitely watch this one.
Tiger King
Netflix
Time may dull its impact, but when Tiger King was first released on Netflix, 광주 성형외과 the entire world couldn’t stop talking about it.
It’s a show that moves rapidly from the bizarre to the downright unbelievable. Tiger King explores the strange underbelly of big cat breeding, focusing on a cast of unforgettable (and ultimately dangerous) characters. It drags its audience to weird places. Completely unforgettable.
Icarus
This Oscar-winning documentary is an absolute belter.
Icarus starts out as an expose on the impact performance-enhancing drugs have on sports performance, but a sequence of events drags director Bryan Fogel into a web of geopolitics and conspiracies. To say more would spoil it, but Fogel ultimately has created a documentary that had a very real impact on our perception of sports as a whole. In that respect, Icarus is a literal game changer.
