While "Who Shot The Sheriff?" is professionally produced and engaging to watch, it falls short as actual investigative journalism. Go to Full Review

ReMastered: Who Shot The Sheriff? ultimately solves little, and the film often sinks into a history lesson on Jamaica's muddled politics. Go to Full Review

Pete B @RT37223507 Mar 25 The idea behind this one is great—diving into the mysterious assassination attempt on Bob Marley. But instead of being a tight, investigative doc, it just kinda throws out theories without actually proving anything. The whole thing feels like it was stretched out just to hit a runtime, and in the end, you don’t really learn much that you couldn’t have gotten from a five-minute Google search. See more cem y @cmyldz23 05/22/2021 It is a look on the political incidents in Jamaica and it generally focuses on how Marley's songs unite the people in different poles in a country which is severely polarized between competing political parties. It does not pay very much attention to Marley's songs per se. See more 09/22/2020 A 101 course level look at the society and politics of Jamaica in the context of Bob Marley, focusing on the assassination attempt on his life. 6.5/10 See more 12/19/2019 This is a great film! This is the first I have seen of the series. I learned so much about Bob Marley in this documentary. The filmmakers were able to interview people who were in his life, and the political climate and issues that greatly influenced the music. This film addresses a lot of things that I hadn't heard in other films, such as the different groups in Jamaica and how they tried to use Bob Marley and his music for their own gains. I found this film an inspiration! See more 12/22/2018 An extraordinary look at the life and struggles of Bob Marley (and Jamaica). Its no surprise that once again the USA and namely the CIA are promoting their in an underhand way. You're with us or against us, right? Its also sad to see that the cause of the shootout at Bob's house was the difference between two political ideologies that Bob wanted no part of. Theres a distinct connection between Jim Brown's gangsters (who shot up Bob's house) - Seaga's party - the USA. How ironic considering Bob preached love and unity and peace. See more 11/03/2018 Revealing look at the gang rivalry party politics in which the CIA may of had more than a small interest. See more Read all reviews
