Nice effects though.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Some English major took the time to read the related Wikipedia pages. Than he read some of the blog footnotes. And boom! The guy is knowledgeable enough to talk about something that does not exist. There is nothing deep about the web. And there is nothing hidden. There are quite a few "hidden" networks in the Internet. And many intranet pages in local networks, that aren't on the Internet. Rehashing blogs seems to be good to get you good reviews through confirmation bias, in other words you scratch my back meaning I want to believe X and I will scratch yours meaning I will call you an expert. But rehashing blog pages does not mean knowledge.Contact me with Questions, Comments or Suggestions ryitfork @ bitmail.ch

For a documentary that's called "Deep Web", this documentary completely misses the point.In the first couple of minutes, it explains perfectly what the deep web is for. It explains that there are far more actually useful ways of using it then there are illegal ways of using it. After that, unfortunately, the documentary goes downhill.It talks about the Silk Road, about the trial of Ross Ulbricht, about the suspicious government activities while building the case against him, about the drug wars... A minute after minute it goes further and further away from the actual topic and talks about the things that have weaker and weaker connection to the actual title. I did my best to watch it until the end, but about an hour later, I just couldn't take it anymore.If this documentary was called "Silk Road", I'd understand it (and I would probably have never tried to watch it since Silk Road is not that interesting topic to me), but for a documentary that's called "Deep Web", it completely misses the point and talks about... well, everything else.I do understand that the Silk Road has been in the news a lot and that it became the most recognizable site that represents what could the deep web be used for, but this documentary (like many articles I have read) talks like the deep web is nothing more then a synonym for the Silk Road. In reality, deep web is far move then that. Silk Road is just yet another website that operates using the .onion domain. Not the only one. The only reason it became this big is because we talk about it constantly. It wouldn't be such a gigantic business if it weren't for the medias that talked about it over and over again.

1st, let me start off by saying this is NOT a movie focusing on the Dark Web. This movie focuses on Ross Ulbricht and his trail and conviction.The movie title is meant to imply it covers the content of the web, aspects and issues...It scratches some of the "manifesto" concepts of the web and freedoms and that is about it.The movie goes to extreme lengths to color Ross as a victimized patriot, exercising what he feels is freedom and marginalizes the other effects. It plays off the Silk Road as a way for drugs to be sold without violence and mentions decriminalization several times.What it does not mention is the numbers behind the claims. I find it highly improbable that your average heroin addict can tell you what bitcoin is, much less grasp the idea that 1 coin has a value of $230.00 per coin. The fact that the prices on the Silk Road were at the top end seems like it was simply a way for white and blue collar people to obtain drugs without risk of violence, more than the poppycock the movie tries to smear and portray as a universal truth.The movie also tries to place doubt of guilt on Ross by CONSTANTLY quoting the defenses concerns over the location of the Silk Road serves and the movie REPEATEDLY tries to convince you this information was never submitted in writing or court...which is a lie and nothing more. What they SHOULD say is we disagree with what was STATED IN COURT as the method of which the servers location, via IP, was obtained, which they do, but not in the movie.This is simply a pro-Ross Ulbricht movie, meant to swing opinions prior to the appeals process as far as I can tell. It is rife with misinformation, lies and falsehoods, under the guise, again, of safe drug transactions, freedom and the right of anonymity.My suggestion is simple. Anytime a claim is made, concerning the legal end of Ulbricht's situation, to research that claim. All...and I mean ALL of the documents from the court proceedings are EASILY obtained online. There are claims against the Federal government and they may be valid, but to say that the Feds never said WHY and HOW is misleading with an intent to convey the theme that a law was broken to catch a law breaker.The show is done well, camera work is flawless, it is the method of delivery of the content I have issues with. I would think any person who's focus is truth, would also have issue with the manipulation used in this "Documentary"
