I've watched all of this on PBS so far and it's excellent. Episode 4 was very good. There have been criticisms but I knew they were bullshit before even watching the first episode. One is Vietnam screaming about it because it covers the factual massacre of thousands of civilian teachers, doctors, and other innocents in the city of Hue during the Tet Offensive in 1968. It happened. They deny that North Vietnamese and Viet Cong slaughtered thousands (possibly over 6,000 civilians) and it did occur.
The U.S. perpetrated war crimes, killing civilians, and much more. Absolutely crimes against humanity. At least they have been admitted to it. The whole thing was one big tragedy. So far, this documentary has been excellent.
