Season 1 Review:
"Turning Point" sets up the events of 9/11 in a far more routine way, although the ultimate objective of the five-part series -- tracking the motives of the 9/11 perpetrators not just to the 1993 bombing and its attendant plots, but as far back as the 1980s -- is a far different one [than National Geographic's "9/11: One Day in America."]

Season 1 Review:
An upsetting, enraging, and largely even-handed history lesson about the past two decades. ... Rather than uncovering bombshells, Knappenberger instead serves up what amounts to an extremely watchable survey meant to function as the streaming service’s definitive 9/11-related viewing option—a somewhat limited aim that it mostly achieves.

Season 1 Review:
It feels like Turning Point takes a half-measure, going over that day in some detail but glossing over what truly made it horrifying to the people who lived through it or people like us, who were just in the tri-state area. ... If you’re interested in either a 9/11 documentary or a War on Terror documentary, there are better ones out there than Turning Point: 9/11 And The War On Terror, which tries to go into both in depth and accomplishes very little that’s new.
