Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

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

Boring, no pace, horrible script. Just don't waste your time with this garbage.

Libby Day (Charlize Theron) has trouble remembering events on the night her family was murdered. Her testimony put her brother Ben (Tye Sheridan) in jail. He was accused of molesting an eleven year old girl and he was a Satan worshiper hanging out with the wrong crowd. Years after the deed, Libby is running low on funds and contacts the Kill Club who want to investigate the murders. They believe Ben is innocent. Libby is reluctant to help. As she starts to look at the material, she too is sucked into the mystery.The film uses flashbacks to recreate what happened in the past. It drops clues, in fact it drops enough clues, that you have more suspects than a half dozen Scooby-Doo episodes...including Ben. The film is based on a popular novel by the same name. It takes place in Kansas and moves at a pace that strings you along as the clues and flashbacks ooze out slowly.Guide: F-bomb. Sex. Near stripper nudity.

In 1985 the entire Day family was killed with the exception of one little girl, Libby Day, and her brother, Ben Day. Ben was arrested and convicted for the crime with the help of Libby Day's testimony. 30 years later the case is being reinvestigated by Libby (Charlize Theron) and a weird true crime devoted club known as Killer Club.This is a true mystery that unfolds bit by bit just as a well written mystery should. The movie takes its time to reveal small nuggets from Libby's memory as well as the actual happenings of the fateful event. With the captivating writing and above-average acting you are treated to a superior crime mystery.

I had just finished reading the book and found that the movie was on Stan. I know it is hard to fit a lot of a book into the movie, but they could at least have got some of the basic facts right. The very beginning the amount she has left in the bank is wrong, the number of years since the trial is wrong and even the name of the debt collector is wrong.She says her aunt is dead but in the book she is still alive. There is not enough of the back story of Ben, Diondra and Trey to explain what happened. So many inconsistencies it ruined the movie for me. Maybe with a better cast they could have sold the story better.
