A two-part documentary of searing power on more than a few counts, including its wealth of merciless facts. ... The forces that once set about determining the outcome of an American election know no endings—they are alive and well. That recognition is the burning heart of this documentary so affecting in its passion and extraordinary in its conception.
Agents of Chaos, is not for the weak of stomach. ... Fortunately, he knows how to lighten the load. Imagine a four-hour Frontline investigation with a sense of humor and a rock-and-roll soundtrack — that’s Agents of Chaos in a nutshell.

Obviously it's all completely brainwashed Trump supporting morons who are attempting to trash this. Why don't you try not letting the 100% biased FOX news do your thinking for you??? Anyone who still supports Trump is a traitor to the U.S.A. and thank God Biden won, America just saved the country and the planet from a narcissistic self-serving dictator without a single redeeming quality as a human being from driving this country and planet into the ground. Every world Trump speaks is an incompetent lie, and so far he's pardoned nothing but absolute criminals who've blindly supported him along the way. I just hope he attempts to pardon himself from his litany of crimes of the past four years because if he doesn't end up in State Prison he will definitely end up in a Federal one as self-pardoning is absolutely unconstitutional. Please Trump, listen to that ignorant ego of yours and attempt to pardon yourself!!!

If you like documentaries and your politics prevents you from watching this very entertaining documentary, maybe you should consider your ability to think freely. Lots of great footage and interesting insider stories, and when compared to the likes of Michael Moore and **** D’Souza, relatively objective.

SEASON 1
It’s wearing and exhausting to go over all this again. But that’s nothing, the film suggests, to how alarming we should be that millions of our fellow citizens don’t look at Russia today with revulsion and fear — that they and we and Trump are remaking our democracy in Russia’s corrupt, autocratic image.
While Agents of Chaos may not come to any concrete conclusions about Russian interference in the 2016 election, it makes a pretty damning case that the Russians definitely had some influence, and that US intelligence officials were slow on the uptake in fighting it.
There are reasons to sit down and carefully watch Agents of Chaos. A refresher course on all dubious international activities starting from 2014 Crimean Crisis onward never hurt anyone for civic responsibility’s sake. But an argument to reach for this documentary for a highlight reel of Russian/Trump crimes seems weak—grab a newspaper.
It's interesting and involving to watch the filmmaker's mind at work even at an arduous running time of four cumulative hours. But Agents of Chaos may not move anybody's understanding beyond that "uncertainty," and if your instinct is to prefer decisive perspectives or answers, this may not be satisfying.
With dozens of key players, it’s all too easy to get a bit lost in the weeds. But for as much research as Gibney and company clearly did in order to build the series on firm ground, in the absence of any rock solid answers, “Agents of Chaos” ends up drawing frustratingly simplistic connections between its more fascinating themes.
This is another example of the worst kind of election interference. The most one sided liberal media abuse of people's intelligence. You wonder why no one votes in the polls. Why should they? There's only one poll that matters it's November 3rd. This series is so one sided it insults anyone that that doesn't believe like you want to manipulate. People are hip to this.

SEASON 1
Xenophobic, fact free conspiracy theory propaganda from Neocons who think they are part of the left. Absolutely disgusting that people believe this and ignore the fact that the DNC and corporate media rigged the 2016 primaries against Sanders to make sure we don’t get healthcare or a living wage, but most of all to protect their special interests.
