Americans have been waiting for an explanation of the US government’s response to Covid-19 and the documentary, Totally Under Control directed and produced by Alex Gibney, Ophelia Harutyunya and Suzanne Hillingers is the first sober assessment that opens the door into the chaos of the pandemic. As someone who doesn’t normally write movie reviews but with 20 years of experience as a healthcare research analyst writing about pandemic preparedness and the development of diagnostics, therapeutics and vaccines to combat pandemics, I must start by saying that this is a must-see movie filled with deadly irony. Simply stated, my sense of detachment faded as I viewed the unfolding denial, deception and disarray with which our government responded to the greatest health challenge we have faced in one hundred years.
