-
“Sons” has a grimy aesthetic that never feels too flashy or overproduced; this alone helps it stand apart from most true crime entertainment. But Zeman makes the mistake of accompanying Terry down his rabbit hole and thereby giving his ideas the veneer of truth. ... It vouches for him by focusing on his words, without telling us very much about him. That’s an occasionally interesting story, full of chilling possibility. But it also misses the dark forest for the trees.
-
While we were annoyed at the first episode of The Sons Of Sam: A Descent Into Darkness, we’re looking forward to digging into what Terry found and how the investigation affected him.
-
The Sons of Sam presents Terry’s suppositions in exhaustive detail, in order to both highlight their validity and reveal their flaws. Over the course of four well-constructed episodes, it’s the latter that eventually become too legion to easily dismiss. ... An illuminating—and sad—portrait of calamitous obsession.
