Leave your thoughts about Scenes of a Crime.
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranA cool documentary that makes the blood boil, it examines how people can be psychologically manipulated into confessing. Not only to crimes they may not have committed but, even worse, to crimes that may never have happened. |
| Slant MagazineNick SchagerA true-crime documentary of invigorating analytical clarity and evenhandedness. |
| The New York TimesStephen HoldenThis smart, cool-headed film, which has a "Rashomon"-like vision of the case, presents a disturbing picture of courtroom justice and how different people come to opposite conclusions, based on the same testimony. |
| Village VoiceMark HolcombWhat's remarkable about Scenes of a Crime, besides Hadaegh and Babcock's ability to stay out of the way of their story and resist flashy graphical flourishes, is the degree to which the events it reveals are business as usual. |
| Time OutEric HynesThis impassioned documentary could have the same real-world impact as Errol Morris's "The Thin Blue Line," and help to free a wrongly convicted man. The filmmaking could be better, but it's hard to argue with that kind of potential. |
| User ReviewVincent LThe film uses the case of Adrian Thomas to look at police interrogation methods that may illicit false confessions from the accused. I really hope I'm never accused of a crime, even if I'm completely innocent! |
