One of the best I've seen thus far is Truth Uncovered available HERE.
I bought it unseen, and wasn't expecting much, but was very pleasantly surprised to find a lot more journalism than pontificating. For that alone, I recommend it.

So, in a more civilized fashion:
I don't know your biases, so can you please clarify your statement? Your commentary on the film can be interpreted two different ways.

I am more interested in what happened during Mar-April 2003. I followed the build up and even am following what is happening in the news today (i.e. not finding vast abount of WMD's ect.).
I did find an interesting DVD at Amazon.co.uk called War in Iraq the reviews gave to praise. Plus it's from my old unit to boot.

I think I know what you mean by 2 ways of interpreting my comment, and to a degree, I meant both. I would like to entice people who normally wouldn't see this film to give it a spin.
But basically, the Truth Uncovered is as you might expect, critical - but not dismissive and not scurrilous or insulting - of the way the road to the war in Iraq was covered by the media, and managed by the government. While the interviewERs are certainly coming from a biased perspective, there was less evidence of it in their questions than I'd thought there would be. And the people who are interviewed are from a variety of perspectives, and seem to be considerate and careful in making all of their remarks, or raising their questions.
Anyway, the film was not made to please the people making it and others like them. It's intended audience is anyone who would be interested, from nearly any point of view. (No offense meant if that's not you.)
Thanks for your discretion. I hope I've answered with similar respect.
