About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like twisty true-crime stories told with a darkly comic, campy edge and plenty of outrage at the justice system; Not for you if you want a sober, purely serious approach like Waco.
Pros: twisty true-crime story; darkly funny tone; strong lead performance | Cons: tone may feel insensitive; narration can distract; acting feels over-the-top
