Reviews
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.
The first must-see film of the year.
Blistering performances.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
