helder f This movie is inspired by an actual serial killer and his claims of insanity. The topic is great as it touches upon what makes one liable of a crime in a society. The characters are well crafted but the dialogue and overall interactions are just too long and tedious. The movie could be much better with better editing. It's just too long with all these back and forth dialogues that contribute nothing to the story, or very little. There are a few good moments including interesting points about social justice, but it's just a bit senseless and tortuous. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/24 Full Review Read all reviews
