At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
