It’s the most harrowing true-crime documentary of the year -- if you grew up in Quebec and are a fan of baseball.

In all, I’ll give this credit as a rare sports documentary on a major streaming service that isn’t doing the express bidding of a particular athlete, team, or league.

Who Killed the Montreal Expos? is a proper elegy for a lost team, but more than that, it’s an encapsulation of what was lost as pro sports teams became billion-dollar businesses.

The film is at its best when focusing on emotions rather than looking for answers.

There’s plenty of buck passing to be found in Who Killed the Montreal Expos?, and the saddest part is that when Poisson puts everything together, all parties involved turn out to be right and wrong in equal measure.

This sports documentary was really good. The entire crew did an excellent job on telling this great and tragic story about the beginning and end of the pro baseball team, the Montreal Expos. It was a very insightful true story and it does make the viewers wonder who is responsible for destroying the Expos. If you haven't seen this documentary yet, check it out sometime. It's a definite must see.

Decent baseball documentary. Tells the story well and leaves it open ended for the viewer to decide who killed them.
