Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Libramedi Intense, gripping, stylish and poignant

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

cmstanley-08433 His son...................................... He Kill Kathleen Peterson

the_rd_amego Regardless of whether you believe Michael Peterson is innocent or guilty of the crime he is accused of, this documentary is extremely well done and appropriately portrays the twisted justice system, how evidence can easily be fabricated or misinterpreted, and how members of the jury and the public, are incapable of "unhearing" things that have been said in the courtroom. The influence of the media - the bias the individual reporters have and the way they choose to relay the information they receive - heavily impacts the way the public view the alleged crime, and in this day in age, people cannot easily escape the media's coverage of such incidents. I found myself on the fence about Peterson's innocence right up until the last couple of episodes. Something Peterson's attorney (David Rudolf) said has resonated with me, and I believe it will for a long time, "Absence of evidence does not mean evidence of absence". This documentary will forever change the way I view crimes portrayed by the media, and what it means to plead "guilty".

jerkassstore I agree with a couple of reviews below. Firstly, this thing is dragged out. Secondly, I guess it was made in partnership, in some way, with the defense so really focuses on Peterson's side of the story without really giving a fair focus on the prosecution's side. Peterson did also come across to me as, not only a narcissist, but a raging sociopath. The defense is pretty flimsy. I mean, really how in the hell could a human gush so much blood from falling down some stairs? Has that ever happened in history? The defense makes a point that in a blunt trauma beating there is always some kind of fracture or whatever. Who cares!? Maybe Peterson didn't cause blunt trauma with the blow poke. He could've used a raking motion or something to cause lacerations. Stuff like that isn't explained and I don't understand why. My feelings is that the prosecution didn't have quite enough evidence to convict Peterson without a reasonable doubt but at the same time the defense IS pretty flimsy.In any case we're dealing with raging sociopaths, motivated probably by money. Once the victim found out her husband was banging gay guys, most likely some kind of monetary consequence was revealed, divorce or whatnot. While at the same time we have idiotic prosecutors with their lying and evidence tampering to prosecute Peterson at any cost. But really, who's kidding who. He did it. Peterson's guilty. Period. I mean, maybe he didn't do it. Maybe it was a ghost, right? There's no way in hell all that blood was caused by a stair fall. No way.

wwvvww-423-766900 This was one of the most biast programs I have ever watched. There's no way you can come to decision of guilty or innocent from watching this when it's made so much for the defence. The only thing it proves is that the American justice system is money driven, if you ain't got any your going down and nobody gives a toss.
