The Butcher of Delhi becomes a rare documentary that conveys information only to expose our relationship with this information. In doing so, it challenges our isolated perception of true crime... Go to Full Review

Blending expert commentary with valuable socio-political context, the second instalment of Netflix's true crime series doesn't make the same mistakes as the first. Go to Full Review
Bhuvanesh Chandar The Hindu 11/20/2023
Clutching purely on the brutality of the crime, this true-crime series hardly tries to break out of the mould or dig beyond the surface. Go to Full Review

The problem is that Indian Predator The Butcher of Delhi doesn’t really dwell on these aforementioned four points. It just mentions them and brings the story to a close. But these are very complex and deep-rooted issues that need a long discussion. Go to Full Review

dan r @RT53832531 08/02/2022 ‘Indian Predator: The Butcher of Delhi' is a new documentary which recently dropped onto Netflix. SYNOPSIS: ‘Uncovering the details of gruesome killings, people who were at the epicentre talk about what went down.' Netflix have set a standard with documentaries so when a bad one comes around it's a bit surprising and jarring. This is An average true crime outing at best, where the storytelling is far less thrilling than the real story the documentary is about. It just takes too long to get going and is very slow throughout. An interesting story that's delivered poorly. 3/10 See more farah r @Farah 07/25/2022 While the fact based story this documentary series centers around is intriguing, the execution was lacking in many ways. It was dragging on at times and failed to deliver a satisfactory conclusion. See more 07/24/2022 This was worse than satire. The sheer ineptitude of the "police" here would make me embarrassed to even make this ridiculous farce. I truly kept shaking my my head thinking, this is surely a joke. I mean, if you want to laugh your a$$ off at the most Keystone Cops meets Barney Fife joke of an "investigation" you will love this. It is truly comical. I can't even articulate it here without this post seeming like a damned joke. It's really and truly that bad! It's not one or two things....it's every single aspect of it. I. I'm still not sure I didn't just get videopunked. See more Read all reviews
