What Untold does so brilliantly is control that chaos. The key players in the story all explain how they fitted into it, and they go far beneath the surface. Go to Full Review

"Untold" isn't arriving to scold viewers for not paying attention sooner. It's more of an effective reminder that a lot of what seem like surprises become far more understandable if you know where to look. Go to Full Review

Untold doesn't just tell a set of sports stories that challenge your expectations of what a sports documentary should be. It tells those stories so effectively you barely need to care about sports to be enraptured. It really is that good. Go to Full Review

Uncovered falls short of the perfection of the best episodes of ESPN's "30 on 30", but it does have high points worth mentioning. Go to Full Review

The focus on the issues surrounding the brawl gives Malice at the Palace its most power, but its a strong start for Netflixs attempt to run down ESPNs monopoly on the sports documentary format. Go to Full Review

L. F @RT68678650 Sep 19 I absolutely LOVE the Untold series! I'm not a huge sports fan, rarely know the names and faces of people who feature in an episode, nor am I previously aware of the events covered, and yet I'm still absolutely gripped by the stories. A true sign of a documentary series done well! Excellent storytelling featuring brilliant contributors. See more Shaun R @Shaun666 Sep 16 Very good series. It’s always a good sign when you really enjoy a programme on certain topics or sports you usually aren’t interested in.

See more 09/01/2021 I haven't seen the other 4 episodes, but malice in the palace, it was a very sad documentary, and Jermaine O'neal heavily paid the price. See more 08/31/2021 Sports documentaries have a long line of excellent entries, and this one depicting the infamous Pacers-Pistons-fans brawl at the Palace of Auburn Hills is yet another addition to that line.
