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

By the end of ‘Who Killed the Montreal Expos,’ you come to hope that one day spring will smile kindly once more on those still still praying for the return of their darling team.

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.

Exclaim!

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

Rated: 6/10

The Gate

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.

Rated: 7/10

The MacGuffin

Yes, it is filled with resentment and frustration, and rightfully so. But it is also a love letter to the Expos, a team that – for a short while – brought pure joy to those that followed them.

Rated: B+

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.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

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