To me, this movie is perfection.
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.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Blistering performances.
