Lightning strikes multiple times in The Act of Killing, making every moment seem far too ridiculous or unsettling to be true. Unsettling is the key word here, as the film will keep you in that state for a full two hours (or more if you watch the extended cut).

Both versions are wholly too long, as its point comes across far before the film is done trying to make it. Besides for that considerable flaw, I have not seen a more haunting documentary yet in my life, and I kind of hope I never have to.
