Not every documentary tells the whole truth. Under the Docs breaks down the best, the worst, the obscure, and the most talked-about documentaries ever made. From true crime to conspiracy classics, cult followings to lost history, music, sports, and the strangest deep dives you never saw coming—we take a critical look at what these films get right, where they miss the mark, and whether they live up to the hype. Some docs challenge the official story. Others rewrite history altogether. And a few go completely overboard. Do they sink or swim? That’s what we’re here to find out.
