Julian S Focusing on the taped interviews might have worked, but the film opts for tasteless, gratuitous slow-motion reenactments that reek of exploitation. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/18/25 Full Review donna s This is not a film for everybody.It is so realistic and distrubing..But that is the point.It is a witness to a hortific level of depravity in the youth culture.It should be appalling. It is not entertainment..It is a message about what is taking place in our world.I thought it was brilliant in the portrayal of this tragedy. The children..I have yet to see better acting from such young people.John,hitting his father was a major subconcious but overt peak into a history- or was it? And what happened with these boys to carry out the unimaginable?The entire cast was amazing.And for the record,though this was a film..My heart breaks for the reality ,the parents ,families...Anybody involved digesting such monumental pain no matter the manifestation. God be with all.. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/20/24 Full Review Michael M Loved this Short Film! Wished it was over an 1 hour in length so it can be a feature film Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This film should never have been commissioned. The self indulgence of the director and his arrogance is appalling, trying to promote discussion about one of the most horrendous crimes ever committed in the U.K. is a fallacy. If he can't ascertain why these children are evil that's his problem. It is not the philosophical drama he likes to think it is. Shocking. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member La nominada al Oscar, "Detainment" es un retrato magistral de la maldad descontrolada, esa que no tiene razón de ser. Este genial cortometraje sigue los detalles de la interrogación llevada a cabo a Robert Thompson y Jon Venables luego del asesinato del pequeño James Bulger. Con actuaciones increíbles, además de respetuosas, este trabajo nos lleva por los detalles de uno de los casos criminales más famosos de los últimos años. NO LA DEJE PASAR. Ya disponible en iTunes.
