Parkland: Inside Building 12

source: Parkland: Inside Building 12

This is a documentary about the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting that happened on Valentine's Day of 2018. It shows a more detailed timeline of what happened during those 6 minutes of horror in the school. Survivors also share their experience of the tragedy, and they also share what the victims were like when they were alive. Hearing their stories made me feel frightened and horrified. The silence at the end made me feel so sad or something, I don't know how to describe that feeling I felt during that silence. However, I also noticed that the interviewer sounded kinda rude on some occasion. He should've been more sensitive when interviewing the survivors and parents/relatives of the victims. The editing could've been also better I think, but that's not really very important. 7/10.

The director turned what could have been an important documentary into exploitation at its worst. The gut-wrenching questions to the families and the survivors were absolutely shameful. The 20/20 hindsight and finger pointing clearly show where the director wanted this tripe to go. If you enjoy suffering and the blame game, watch this one. If you don't, watch something else. This film is terrible in every sense.

The trial was still going on and families mourning when this was being filmed and released for entertainment. This is not entertainment these are real lives that were ruined. I grew up 5 mins away from this school and had friends who went here. We are deeply effected by this and the who shall not be named is not even getting the death penalty. Please PLEASE consider our feelings and what we have been through before releasing a film for entertainment. I hope the proceeds go to the family's effected by this horrible event. Its good to spread the word but this is so terrible. Apparently my review is too short so here.

It is a shame that this keeps happening, but the silence at the end of the documentary seems to be a little ridiculous

Seeing this was incredibly important, but so, so incredibly sad. I am so lucky to have never been through something so tragic and terrifying, and after the event I was scared our school (also in Florida) would be next. It's incredibly scary to think about and my heart goes to every victim who died that day, to the ones who never got to graduate like I did. To the students and faculty who will forever be traumatized by this event, my heart goes to them. Please just be aware of everything going around you and stay safe.

Honestly I don't get how this director keeps making movies In every movie he blames the situation on the police I started this movie being like he finally is actually talking about the victims and the survivors and not blaming anyone but the shooter Nope asks very inappropriate questions That to be honest if I had gone through that event I would have been so upset And obviously again blames everything on police officers STOP LETTING HIM MAKE MOVIES !

The director used cheap, dramatic questions to provoke sensationalistic answers from victims and witnesses. There's always someone who will exploit tragedy for personal gain. The film does offer interesting perspectives from witnesses, but the directors sensationalistic tactics are deplorable and desperate.

I highly recommend a warning for individuals who lost someone in a mass shooting be added. There is not currently one and after less than 15 minutes I could watch no more. For those who don't know what it is like this is very educational but for those who have lost someone in this manner a disclaimer should be added because this was damaging to my recovery from grief because I didn't understand how real it would be because there was no opening disclaimer to warn me.

Watching this video moved me very deeply, sadly those who made this film were only focused on the awards they expected. my very first review so yes you can kiss it. this is not an isolated event, what gave these guys the advantage was the cell phone footage of the beginning (the other events like this did not have cell phones so those that told the story made a lot of money) sad, i FEEL for everyone involved. victims and police. NO ONE knows how they will react unless you are there..despite your training. STOP ROMANTICIZING EVIL. be real. i love you. tragedy is tragedy, i am hugging you.
