De nombreux films ont pris cette guerre pour sujet. Moins connus, il existe d'admirables documentaires qui, mieux que les longs-métrages de fiction, témoignent de l'exceptionnelle cruauté d'un affrontement qui causa la mort de 58 000 Américains, de plus de 3 millions de Vietnamiens. Emile de Antonio a réalisé au début de la guerre du Vietnam, le réalisateur s'est infiltré méthodiquement dans le tumulte des événements. Il a été le premier à tenter d'expliquer les raisons profondes de la guerre. Avec des méthodes d'archéologue.

VIRTUAL JFK investigates one of the most debated "what if" scenarios in the history of U.S. foreign policy: What would President John F. Kennedy have done in Vietnam if he had not been assassinated in 1963, and had he been re-elected in 1964? The film employs what Harvard historian Niall Ferguson calls "virtual history," assessing the plausibility of counterfactuals - "what ifs" - and the outcomes they might have produced. The heart of the film deals with the question: Does it matter who is president on issues of war and peace?

After some comical animations involving Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, the film shows Spurlock visiting various countries associated with or affected by Bin Laden. The film contains short interviews with many people about Bin Laden and Islamic fundamentalism, and about the US and its war on terror. Supposedly Spurlock searches for Bin Laden, and he even asks people at random in the street where he is. The film is intercut with images of Spurlock's wife in the late stages of her pregnancy. Much of Spurlock's commentary is based on the concerns of a new father.
