Nonureva Really Surprised!
Konterr Brilliant and touching
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
xtinec-nyc It is shocking to see how justice system was so twisted and it really disgusts me to see those shameless disgusting faces from police dept. It is a great film and I truly admire the team who documentaried the film and the lawyers who had courage and wisdom to defend Steven Avery. Although i was truly devastated when I saw the result and it's so depressing to see Avery's family had to suffer from all this non sense. It is so sad and disappointing to know how ugly this reality is.
marklemoir I can't wait for a a follow up documentary!! This is painful in some ways but exposes so much
AgustaBeata As a true crime-fan this was a must see for me. And if I had seen this three years ago when I was new to true crime, I would have screamed about innocent and just believe everything this documentary showed. But now my first thought after I finished watching was about the fact that they showed so little from the prosecutors and the Halbach family side. I know that that's because they have declined to be in the show, but it doesn't change the fact that MAM is obviously Pro-Avery.Of course a 10 hour long documentary can't go in to detail about every thing, but some googling shows that they kept things that make Steven Avery look bad out. It makes me a bit more negative about the documentary witch makes me give it a lower grade. I would have wanted a more balanced program. I still think it's interesting and made me think and say "what?" and that's what I think a documentary should do. It was a bit slow sometimes, but overall it kept my interest and I would recommend it to others. But I would tell them to Google after to get more of the story.
Frank Lampard Like most people I was unfamiliar with this case before watching this "documentary." And like most people, I was disturbed as the makers of the film started to create real doubt as to the guilt of this man. Little insinuations and open ended segments are put in that make you scream "what is going on here!?" However, unlike most people that have watched this series, I started to research the court records of this case. I started to examine the actual evidence and testimony. I went beyond just getting my information from this show. What I found was probably the most open and shut case in the history of mankind. You had a truly evil human being, that had motive (the desire to rape and kill women). means (he was the last person to see the victim alive) and more physical evidence than you can shake a stick at. The man made numerous anonymous attempts to lure this woman on to his property, there is no evidence of her ever leaving his property, her vehicle and remains were found on his property... it is open and shut. As for the defense's case, they did not have one. They simply relied on "it is a conspiracy." But there is not one example of them ever expanding on or proving that conspiracy. So many facts all but scream, Avery did it, from his numerous attempts to lure the nervous victim on to his property, numerous incidents of his abusing women and others, his feeling that his being wronged in the past allowed him to do anything he wished to women, the actual physical remains of her body on his property, along with her vehicle, all of which he tried to cover up. I will not even bother with the numerous incriminating events in his background and numerous people that heard him brag about what he did. Steven Avery is a very bad man and a very guilty man, the testimony in court proved that, which is why the jury convicted. Anybody that would take the time to actually examine the case on their own, instead of simply relying on this extremely deceptive and manipulated "documentary," would know that. People have said this is a disturbing documentary, I agree. It is disturbing, because some manipulative filmmakers decided they were going to create a documentary to con thousands of people into thinking a guilty person was innocent, and they did just that. They mixed and edited a film that turned black in to white and up in to down. They banked on a viewing audience being too lazy and inflamed to actually take time to examine the real facts of the case. That is evil almost in the realm of Steven Avery.
