Yeah, I thought the buildup was good with lots of great new footage, but despite doing the best with what they had, things not ending with a full Channel 5 style look at Jan 6th really made the film peter out for me, especially with the precedent they've set.
I haven't followed the marketing, but I feel like the narrative for this thing has been "Channel 5's look at Jan 6th". For them to not have even been there, I can't help but feel let down. Still though, the film's full of great stuff.
