Audience Member Powerful Documentary! "Had the Elian event been handled better, we might not have had the Iraq war," - Joe Garcia, Former U.S. Congressman Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review dave d 'Elian' is entertaining, but unfortunately it will be frustrating in many respects. First of all, it wanders off the story which based on the title is the Cuban Elian Gonzalez. Gonzalez was taken to America by his mother who died on the journey. The rest is condensed and well-told. What should make this special is that it has exclusive interviews with not only Elian, but also his American and Cuban families. Sadly, Elian doesn't say what we'd like him to say and that's going to turn a lot of viewers off. Also I wonder how much he repeated talking points. They didn't use much footage of him in the present day and what they did was very surface information. It was edited so we even heard him repeating himself. We'll never know the whole truth about the whole ordeal, but if you remember the drama it's a journey down memory lane. If you don't recall the story it's also a worthwhile watch. Final Score: 6.8/10 Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
