To me, this movie is perfection.
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
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.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
