About
You may like this if you prefer a quiet, character-focused true-crime drama that avoids sensationalism and graphic violence; Not for you if you want fast pacing, heavy action, or a police-procedural approach like Cape Fear.
Pros: strong performances; chilling atmosphere; restrained violence | Cons: very slow pace; limited tension; feels incomplete
