It artfully sketches out the events for anyone who's coming in cold, but basically, its strategy is to take what we already know and go deeper.
Conspicuous in their absence, the directors of the "Paradise Lost" documentaries, the filmmakers who did more than anyone else to keep this story of injustice alive for nearly 20 years...
It took way too long, but the crowd finally bested the mob.
Take this as ultimately more personal journal than investigation.
The film is inspiring because it has a semi-happy ending attached to a love story.
Even if you already know the eventual outcome, the suspense as the three convicts file a last-ditch appeal is excruciating.
New evidence and a fresh perspective keep the subject matter compelling.
Filmmaker Amy Berg (Oscar nominated Deliver Us From Evil) has once again struck documentary gold with her hard-hitting journalistic feature, West of Memphis.
A lot of it is treading on ground that's been laid by other people, but there's a lot of great new stuff, too.
The infuriating facts in this famous case are illuminated with new human detail.
Diligent, complex and justly indignant.
The case presented in West of Memphis is damning, most of all for a bungling local police department and ambitious local officials who wanted the case solved and chose to overlook obvious suspects...
A worthwhile appendix to the West Memphis Three case.
An extraordinary story told with utter conviction but not without a certain sympathy for the court of public opinion - which wrecked the chance of proper justice for the accused for so long.
If you've seen the 'Paradise Lost' trilogy on the case, 'West of Memphis' will be a must. If not, it's even more so.
[West of Memphis] is a captivating albeit disturbing look at failed justice and the search for the truth... do not miss this film!
Both a shocking indictment of the American criminal justice system and a tribute to the dedication of selfless civil rights lawyers and their supporters from all over the world.
The intelligent storytelling, wise use of access and emotional depth that separates West of Memphis from other documentaries about the murders in Robin Hood Hills, also elevates it to required viewing.
A definitive portrait of a real-life travesty of justice. Provides a strong sense of the scope of this tragedy and a thoughtful investigative probing of the facts behind it.
