Audience Reviews for Wormwood: Miniseries
-
Apr 25, 2022Dull. People saying the same things repeatedly. An insult to the audience. Enough content for an episode of 60 Minutes, nothing more.
-
Mar 03, 2022I was disappointed because of all the glorious reviews. The story itself is mind-blowing, but I found the story telling incredibly tedious. The reenactment my of every quiet moment, where people stand and a drink for ages, or look out of a window, yadayadayada - I had to fast forward.
-
Feb 08, 2022Genuinely very interesting, but the series is far too dragged out and laborious. This could have been handled better in just two or three episodes.
-
Mar 29, 2021This was an interesting story but they added in too much dramatic speculation and drug it out way too long!
-
Mar 11, 2021Loved. Rare to see such thoughtful, patient, intelligent documentary film work these days. It's not a style for everyone, but it's also well done and will stand the test of time.
-
Apr 14, 2020Disappointed reading the reviews... nicely shot but way too slow moving... don't need a re-enactment for every single thing that happened after just having the narration of the same thing twice. Far too many pointless scenes
-
Mar 31, 2020This was excellent. Well worth watching.
-
Sep 11, 2019As someone who has done more than their fair share of personal digging & research into the CIA's & US government's highly unethical projects during the 50's-70's of the Cold War Era, I find it extremely important that the American public is given a specific example of said criminal behavior on witting US citizens...thankfully, Errol Morris is up to the task, and this Netflix mini-series focusing on HOW and WHY a Company Man — a Biochemist no less(!) — was thrown to his death from the window of a New York City hotel room within days of raising moral objections to the CIA's reckless & inhumane "PROJECT MK-ULTRA."
-
Aug 26, 2019Overrated and overly drawn out. The "twists" are not surprising and what you think happened, is in fact what happened. Never have CIA conspiracies been this dull and predictable.
-
Aug 16, 2019This would have been a much more fun thing to watch if it had all been done in one episode. It really goes over a lot of same information over and over again. The constant reference to Hamlet were , for me , a little tedious. The acting was actually pretty good , and it was photographed well. It's (a little) sad , but understandable that poor Eric Olson has become obsessed. I love a good conspiracy as much as the next , but , I think it's still quite possible that Frank Olson actually did commit suicide.
