Review of Amanda Knox (2016) by Abb J — 11 Oct 2016

A fascinating look into the true crime saga that took the world by storm that everyone seemed to have an opinion about, however biased and uninformed. This definitely isn't unbiased. It firmly lands on the side of Knox's innocence, and doesn't even really entertain the notion that she could be guilty of any wrongdoing.

But it works in that Making a Murderer sense of highlighting the shortcomings of the justice system - enhanced here by the international setting and the additional weird sexiness factor that made it such a high profile case.

Even though it paints Knox as an innocent bystander, and the lead prosecutor as a bit of an overzealous nut job, I still ended up not 100% convinced that she's telling the whole story. But I guess that's what makes these documentaries so intensely addictive and thought-provoking.
