      J M This is an extremely poor documentary that pretty much fails on every conceivable level - and this is coming from a person who LOVES documentaries. There is no feeling here of coherence or cohesion - it jumps from one period of time to another apparently assuming that we all are familiar enough with Brancato that we can follow along. I knew nothing about him or his involvement in a police officer's death while a drug addict, so I was lost throughout. Interviews go on forever as if no editor was involved whatsoever. And the interview subjects are very random - they aren't given any backstory, so we're perplexed as to when they knew Brancato or what role they played in his life or if they even ever met him. We do not come to know or particularly like Brancato as a person, the police officers involved come across as vengeful simpletons, and the whole enterprise is simplistic and even occasionally condescending. My late grandma's home movies from the 1990s were better made. - Jeff Marshall, Movie Blogger (Facebook) Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/18/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
