Critic Reviews

Season 1 Review:
There’s nothing stylish or even particularly inventive about the direction, or for that matter the dialogue, the photography, or the editing. In fact, nothing feels entirely right here: not the structure, which shoehorns brief expository flashbacks into the timeline for no clear reason; not the look, a desaturated, blue-gray palette characteristic of clichéd, East Coast–based TV crime thrillers; not the script or its presentation, which fail to exploit elements of black comedy and social satire that are so innate to the tale that they seem to lunge at the camera, crying, “Notice me! Do something with me!”

Season 1 Review:
Mostly, either the Menendez story was ill-suited for an eight-hour miniseries or the Law & Order approach was ill-suited to telling the story, because although there's absolutely an aspect to the case that is notable and distinctive, through the two hours sent to critics, Law & Order True Crime: The Menendez Murders is mainly a lot of wigs and rich kids behaving badly. ... This didn't need to be an eight-hour miniseries.
