Jeanskynebu the audience applauded

Crwthod A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

cheergal I saw " All good things" a few years back and was curious about the alleged suspect, Robert Durst. Later, I watched several news programs about him also. And it was only natural to come across this title eventually.I watched two similar crime series on Netflix, "Making a Murderer" and "The Staircase". None of them were convincing to me. Both suspects in these two cases were convicted as murderers. However, those two film makers indeed tried to portrait their innocence, otherwise. Especially, the suspect in "Making a Murderer" is undoubtedly guilty . The film makers somehow misled audience to believe suspects' innocence with their bias directing skills. This one is neutral and journalistic. The main focus of this documentary is on Robert Durst entirely not on any particularly alleged crimes he committed. The history of him is very well to depict his psychopathic personality. He got away with those murders because of his wealth and connections. When he agreed to participate this documentary against his lawyer's cautious advises, he wasn't aware that his fate was about to take turn for worse. This also coincided with those analyses of psychopathic behaviors. Despite of all the complexities of psychopath, Robert Durst is a real life psychopath who is now behind bars because of this film. I would say so far this is the best outcome anyone could hope for.This is a good journalist work. It did not only have its entertaining value but also serve justice for victims. What could be better than that? I would recommend it.

johnfpfallon The Jinx is a slow-paced but absorbing documentary that lures the viewer in and maintains that grip to the very end. It reflects on the US judicial system and affluent US society at a wider level through its gentle yet intrusive interviews with a New York misfit from a wealthy Manhattan property family regarding the disappearance in 1982 of the man's wife; as well as detailed interviews with her friends and family. The story continues to unravel from there & is told (somewhat) in reverse. The undertones of psychopathy and consequence against a backdrop of affluence are only hinted at in the series. This documentary should be watched by every US citizen.

Karl Ericsson This is, with little doubt, the most boring piece of idiocy I almost watched entirely. I understand that there must be some significant difference between me and the general public in the USA. For sure, I cannot understand how a poor person in America can vote on anything but the communists, out of spite if for no other reason. John Steinbeck wrote that the poor in America look at themselves as temporarily embarrassed millionaires and if that is possible then I guess the raving reviews that this film has gotten is possible too. Somebody has to issue a warning, so I'm doing it. If you buy this film, you cannot blame me. Where lies the fascination that some people seem to have for this garbage? Are they surprised that there are killers in a system of competition, in which only the most evil can succeed? A good person cannot see his fellow human beings as opponents and subsequently a good person has no chance to make it in the USA. I guess, most Americans don't know that. What could have been told in half an hour or less, is stretched out to more than 4 hours (or was it even 5?). Every idiot has their say. The only thing that could have saved this film - well,almost - would have been if he was innocent without a doubt and the guilty person would have been somebody you never even heard about before.

s3276169 The Jinx is a fascinating documentary that examines the troubled and turbulent life of Robert Durst who comes from a dynastic family of wealthy US property owners. Its a larger than life story that brings into focus issues of inequality and criminal justice as it exists under the current capitalist system in the USA. The old saying, "money opens all doors", applies in spades in the USA. The outcome of criminal proceedings depends, in large part, on what level of legal expertise you can afford. The series documentary style is detailed and well presented. This includes fairly extensive interviews with Robert "Bob" Durst. Its hard not to sympathize with Bob on some level. He's in some respects a victim of US capitalism. Yet at the same time his, at times eccentric and evasive behavior raises a lot of questions that remain unanswered. Simply put the mans a rather fascinating, if disturbing, enigma. What does limit this series somewhat is its rather sensationalist presentation. This makes you fully understand why prominent people, in the US, feel the need to escape from the trial by media that seems to be standard fare for anyone accused of anything. In summary, a competent documentary that could have been excellent had it knocked off the sensationalism and focused a little more closely on the facts. Seven out of ten from me.
