Nat Geo’s program is, unfortunately, grim in its lowest-common-denominator presentation. It’s funny, because many of the commentators suggest that the footage recorded of the experiment is an ancestor to modern reality television. Yet Unlocking the Truth has a similar grammar to an average episode of Real Housewives. The first chapter simply retells the tale of what happened as we all know it.

Since many of the men in the study haven’t been extensively interviewed, the National Geographic series does say something new, a feat, given there have been a number of films — some good, some bad — focused on the subject. Eisner balances those personal reflections with one of Zimbardo’s final interviews.
