Despite solid performances from the bulk of the cast, overall, the characterization is so shallow there is little that allows us to empathize with the protagonists. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- Why has Egoyan made this unsatisfactory, ultimately dismaying film, when this awful story has been so thoroughly treated already elsewhere? Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Today we find a director more concerned with recovering his idiosyncrasy than with deepening our fears. [Full review in Spanish] Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- The whole thing is ill-scripted, ill-directed and, worst of all, superfluous. Full Review

It never quite finds a reason to exist, and that's a genuine shame, as a case as multi-dimensional as the one it used as source material should have more than enough inspiration. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- It is a strangely unsatisfactory affair that doesn't quite work either as a documentary-style reconstruction, a brooding thriller or a courtroom drama. Full Review

Product Description:

Director Atom Egoyan adapts journalist Mara Leveritt non-fiction book to the screen in this docudrama centered on the investigation into the notorious West Memphis Three case (previously the subject of filmmaker Joe Berlinger's PARADISE LOST documentaries). Centered on the investigation conducted by private detective Ron Lax (Colin Firth), THE DEVIL'S KNOT details the discovery of crucial DNA evidence that helped to win back the freedom of Arkansas teens Damien Echols, James Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley Jr., who were accused of ritualistically murdering three young boys in 1993. Stephen Moyer and Reese Witherspoon co-star.
