Reviews
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Blistering performances.
