david f This is a riveting and important documentary about a bar fight that turned into a beating death with a strong anti-Asian racial component in a city where the auto industry was struggling against Asian competitors and a justice system that just completely did not render justice whatsoever. The filmmakers were able to talk to so many people who were directly involved that they were able to create an incredible documentary full of insight and detail. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member An essential documentary that follows the unbelievable miscarriage of justice of the murder of Vincent Chin. The story of two white men beating the life of Vincent Chin an Asian-American with a Baseball Bat. The outcry lead by Mrs. Chin (Vincent's Mother) pushed for the case to fall under a Civil Rights claim. Although made on a tight budget the Doco lacks technical flair. As one would imagine the outcome wasn't favorable for the Chin Family. A 1987 Oscar Nominated Documentary that still holds impact. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member An imperfect, but important film. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member A small film about a murder that may continue to haunt you. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member This documentary is effective. It informed me about the Chin murder, and made me angry that our judicial system failed the Chin family. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member as documentaries go, its middle of the road. subject matter, however, is very interesting. this is the american judicial system at perhaps one of its most flawed moments (of which there are many). and the fact that ron ebens is completely cavalier about his actions and continually calls it an "accident" that he beat vincent chin in the head with a baseball bat while he was laying on the ground that inflicted wounds that would cause him to die a few days later. its difficult to watch any of the shots with chins mother in them. if you want to go on living your life having complete and blind faith in our system of justice i would have to recommend that you steer clear of this one.
