I am a fan of Netflix documentaries, particularly the criminal/true crime ones. However, more recently, these productions are becoming less interesting, not because of the content but due to the overextension, boring details and repetition of material.
In this case, Who Killed Malcom X starts with a good episode, intended to familiarize anyone who doesn't know the case and everything that led to it (I am one of them). The problem is on episodes 2, 3 and 4 where there is too much repetition of scenes, information and details already mentioned in the first episode. In my opinion, these episodes are completely unnecessary and they can be easily skipped.
This is something that upsets me because I imagine lots of people giving up on this documentary (and even in future ones) by episode 3. If Netflix wants to convince more people to watch this kind of content, they need to make it more attractive.
Anyway, episodes 5 and 6 are very interesting and in my opinion, make this series a 7/10.
