The Strangler Truth |
True-crime fans know—the Boston Strangler case is one murky mystery. Now the untold true story of the women reporters who broke the story premieres today, starring Keira Knightley and Carrie Coon. But does it shed new light on the case? |
- "It’s a beautiful-looking film that is at its best when subdued, a quality Knightley embodies in her masterful lead performance." — Lena Wilson, The Wrap
- "The film is so obsessed with packing in as much information as it can, it throws all characterization, tension, and narrative structure out the window." — Emma Kiely, Collider
