Nick Schager The Daily Beast 02/05/2024
Critiquing with one hand and promoting with the other, it winds up caught in a tangle that it’s not deft enough to escape. Go to Full Review
John Anderson Wall Street Journal 02/02/2024
Director Lucie Jourdan begins by introducing these characters, and in a way that seems ennobling. But once their MOs are established, along with their personalities, the so-called cybersleuths emerge as an unworthy, loud and even unsavory lot. Go to Full Review
Eric Langberg Everything's Interesting 02/25/2024
#Cybersleuths is an infuriating watch thanks to the intellectual vapidity of its subjects. ... It’s chilling stuff. I’m not sure where this is all headed, but it’s certainly nowhere good. Go to Full Review
Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media 02/15/2024
But while the overall series raises important questions about how we understand crime investigations and social media's role in it, the biggest problem with #Cybersleuths: The Idaho Murders is that it is often slow going, and at times feels repetitive. Go to Full Review
Joel Keller Decider 02/07/2024
Despite our reservations, #Cybersleuths: The Idaho Murders is still a good review of this grisly case... Go to Full Review

#CyberSleuths The Idaho Murders is an addictive and oddly compelling commentary on how we consume and interact with news. Go to Full Review

Fred W @Freddy_Styxx Apr 10 The case itself is just context for the main subject: sensationalistic true crime "influencers". They are often pushing unproven rumors, conspiracy theories and speculations for the attention they need to live off of their hobby (instead of getting a job). To me their constant unfiltered logorrhea and attention seeking was an annoyance and counterproductive to the examination of this interesting case. See more Patrick M @PMacD82 08/20/2024 Not exactly about the case itself which is what is interesting. More about the insufferable tik tok self described investigative media who causes more problems spreading false rumors for clicks than actually seeking justice. See more Read all reviews
