      Audience Reviews for Making a Murderer: Season 1

      • 3d ago
        Plays like a documentary but definitely is putting forth an agenda and developing a narrative to support it rather than just exposing the truth.
      • Sep 19, 2023
        Huge documentary of lies and pertinent facts omitted. The documentarians should be sued for spreading falsehoods about this case.
      • Sep 19, 2023
        Must see for people who want half the truth and want to believe avery is innocent
      • Sep 19, 2023
        It's crazy to see how many facts were strategically left out!!
      • Sep 18, 2023
        It's shameful to put this series out into the world with the illusion that it's documenting what actually happened. The producers deceived viewers with manipulative edits as well as completely leaving out information that was contrary to their theme of SA being a justice system victim.
      • Sep 18, 2023
        Very well researched and produced.
      • Sep 17, 2023
        The left out a lot of facts. Controlling audiences emotions rather than giving out facts! Shame on directors and producers of this show!
      • Sep 17, 2023
        Cherry picked, deceptively edited garbage.
      • Sep 17, 2023
        Very bad I can't believe Netflix actually aired this trash
      • Sep 17, 2023
        Need more episodes... 💜
