I don’t know if The Fog of War is the best documentary ever made but it is definitely one of the most intriguing.

It works on so many levels. As an historical document of the cold war it is a fascinating look behind the curtain. As a philosophical discussion  it poses many difficult ethical questions.  And as a portrait of a conflicted individual it is an engrossing look at Robert McNamara.

Overall, The Fog of War is a highly recommended documentary that leaves you feeling a little smarter for having seen it.
