There are no user reviews yet - Be first to review Catch and Kill: The Podcast Tapes.
-
As a primer for newcomers, or a recap for those who want one, Catch and Kill: The TV Series of the Podcast of the Book of the Article works fine. But there is a sense of missed opportunity – whether to show what has changed since, or how far we still have to go – that makes it slightly less than the sum of its reused parts.
-
"Catch and Kill" doesn't really intend advance the story as much as repackage part of the book (fully titled "Catch and Kill: Lies, Spies and A Conspiracy to Protect Predators") for TV, and those who might not have read it, in a very effective way.
-
Even though the repetitiveness of some of the stock footage — closeups of recorders, Farrow looking at papers behind a microphone but not talking into it — might get old, the story is structured in a way that brings viewers in immediately, giving them information on it that they may not have known if they didn’t read Farrow’s book or listened to his podcast.
