Audience Member Have this little gem right alongside The Shawshank Redemption. What makes this film stand out is the real life story that has a three-act structure, complete with a villain. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member 12/9/15 Netflix Another great documentary that was even more interesting to me living in Houston and seeing this unfold in the press as the Innocence Project fought for his release and the wheels of justice turned on Judge Anderson. Lots of lives turned upside down by an unethical and ambitious DA, probably done more often than you think. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Miscarriage of justice. What a shame. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member I first heard of this story through a piece by Pamela Colloff. That article is a great and important piece of journalism. I was much more touched by the article than this documentary. Still, an extremely compelling story. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member This is as good as documentaries get. Watch it. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a good doc about how prosecutors are above the law and hide evidence to win. There is too much pressure on these elected offices to put people in jail, and this story highlights that problem. There is a lot of talk about God in this film, so that is where the film lost me a bit, but overall it is an inspiring story.
