“American Manhunt” is perhaps the most comprehensive and valuable recorded history of the Boston Marathon bombings and the events of that week. ... “American Manhunt” dutifully provides some background on the terrorists, but never wavers in its mission to tell the stories of the heroes of that week.

No amount of filmmaking flourishes, which we see when interviewees enter rooms, or turn to the camera, and other gimmicks, are going to make the viewer forget that they’ve seen all this before. Less gimmicks and more in-depth information on the particular parts of the event would have made for a better docuseries.
