    I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

    It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

    The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

    All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

    Paula Zahn does nothing except rehash crimes from 10 to 30 years ago. They've already been seen on different crime shows. It's time for her to retire.

    An earlier review thought the interview process seemed fake as if Paula Zahn does not do face to face interviews. That is correct because I know someone who appeared on her show and he stated a team of producers ask the questions and Zahn is not present for the actual interview.It is simply a matter of editing to have Zahn filmed asking the questions posed by producers to the interviewed person. It makes a viewer of the show question the decision that Zahn does not do the face to face interview since most crime shows do have the "star" of the show or at least an on-camera reporter sit with the person and ask the questions.The actual show is okay and since it has been on for 7-8 seasons the production team believes in the process.

    Not only is Paula Zahn like a robot when she interviews these witnesses, family member and officials, I believe it is totally fake. She is NOT in the same room as these people; she's just edited in later. This just adds to the unauthentic nature of these exchanges. How self-absorbed not to get off her butt and actually meet these people face to face. The only positive aspect of the show is that they don't use really bad actors to re-enact scenes like most of the other really awful ID shows. However, there are really bad clichés repeated over and over and the same footage is shown repeatedly. Only could stomach one episode.

    Ms. Zahn continues to crank out interesting and fact filled shows covering crime in the United States. I've been watching her "On the Case" show for many years. I hate to bring this down to a base level. But Paula looks much the same as she did more then 10 year ago. It's hard to believe she's been at it that long. The episodes fly by. And because to the amount of time put into research the stories really hold your attention. The show is done in much the same way as other crime shows. Paula narrates. She interviews people in law enforcement to get the details of the investigations. She also spends time with the families, friends, suspects, and even a few perpetrators. To give us an idea how enforcement is effected by the crimes they see everyday. And how family and friends cope with what has happened to their loved ones. An excellent show with an excellent host.
