Real to Reel

A well-made documentary can make the most inane things seem interesting, even if the subject matter is downright tedious. Just look at Scrabble flick Word Wars or the quarter-pumping arcade drama of King of Kong. Finding a good documentary amidst the mind-numbing blockbusters at your local cineplex can be an even greater challenge.
