Worth a look but seriously flawed in many ways

Documentary which traces the on-going attempts to solve the mysteries of Scotland's famous Loch Ness. Chugs along quite nicely in the early stages but quickly wanders off and starts to talk about lizards in Asia and various other things which have absolutely nothing to do with Nessie.

A long and extremely boring interview with some sort of 'professor type' in L.A about fossilized fish successfully reduces the pace of the whole thing to that of a funeral procession.

At the end, the producers try valiantly to go out on a high note by showing us a 'startling piece of film' which we're expected to believe is THE 'Monster' swimming across the lens of a submerged movie camera. It is, in fact, an eel which is obviously just below the surface of the water. Look closely at the top left hand corner of the screen and you'll see a member of the camera crew standing in a boat. 

Still, there are a few interesting bits 'n pieces along the way. Worth a look if you're fond of the legend but seriously flawed in many ways.

The documentary is a form of non-fiction storytelling that aims to present factual information, insights, and perspectives on real-world subjects, events, issues, or people. Documentaries can cover a wide range of topics, including history, science, culture, social issues, nature, biographies, and more.
