Great true story; Worth a watch if you're willing to concentrate

Rating: 8/10 (17 December 2016)

Overall: The movie is actually very good and well done only if you're willing to concentrate for just under 3 hours.
Good: The story is very interesting with immeasurable tension brought from a fascinating real life event. The music is very well done and beats with every emotion. Every single actor did a great job and drew me into the story making me forget who they were. The dialogue was great as was the phenomenal cinematography. I like the short bursts of humour which break up the tense moments.
Bad: There were a few pacing issues and, in my opinion, too many characters. I understand they had to be accurate but there were at least 40-45 characters who were critical to the story. It was needlessly long and could have been cut down so it felt like less of a drag. You need to concentrate to understand it and that will lesser the viewing experience of some people.
Best Part: The basement scene involving Jake Gyllenhaal.
MVP: Robert Downey Jr as Paul Avery
