Another Wikipic (a wikipedia page: the movie), meaning that there are really no insights in character or examining what drove them to do what they did, just events and more events. But since it's a true story, there's enough stranger-than-fiction madness to stay mildly hooked and see it out to the end. Production values and music were good, the acting hit or miss: Lacy is captivating as psychopath, but Hanks is a bit of a stereotype. Paquin doesn't have much to do aside from quivering her lips
