100 BEST-REVIEWED DOCUMENTARIES OF ALL TIME - Page 2

Capturing truth, life, and reality — one movie at a time. The best documentaries allow us to see the world with a fresh set of eyes, from social experiments (Super Size Me) to quirky competitions (The King of Kong) to political exposés (Citizenfour) to the ultimate cat video (Kedi). These are the top movies of the form, with each accredited Certified Fresh from at least 100 critics reviews. Most recently, additions include The Rescue (documenting the miraculous 2018 Thai cave operation), Roadrunner (a raw portrait of Anthony Bourdain), Summer of Soul (which won the Golden Tomato Award for Best Documentary), Flee (a moving memoir of self-discovery), Val (exploring iconic actor Kilmer's life), Fire of Love (a cinematic vista centered on a doomed romance), The Truffle Hunters (a savory delight), and musical odysseys with David Bowie, The Velvet Underground, Billie Eilish, and Sparks. Now, we present the 100 best-reviewed documentaries, ranked by Tomatometer. —Alex Vo
