Murder One

About This Movie

The pacing is a bit uneven, which might not sit well with everyone, but it builds this tension that underlines the desperation of their crime spree. The performances, while not polished, feel genuine—there’s an unsettling realism when they portray this family spiraling into chaos. Practical effects, though not over the top, lend a certain authenticity to the violence. It's definitely a film that lingers in your mind long after watching.
