There are killers among us

Kudos to Joe Berlinger's Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile (2019) for not gluttonizing on the gruesome details and graphic images of the murders of Ted Bundy, but focused on the courtroom case, conviction and the relationship with his girlfriend. Having said that, leaving the grotesque stuff out altogether can bit a bit of a fucken bore too. The ludicrous courtroom drama and his relationship not one but two women - who he didn't chop to death - are interesting, but not enough weight for a full lenght feature.

One-stroke deficit

Inspired by the real events of t he biggest heist of all time on Danish soil. But the filmmakers have certainly taken it easy with the facts...
