Unbelievable

Unbelievable (2019) 

I know I’m supposed to say, if I had it to do over, I wouldn’t lie. But the truth is ... I would lie earlier. And better.  A true-crime series about how the system does not work (which has a significant impact on individual people) until the moment it finally starts working, better late than never (which has a significant impact on individual people). The biggest complaint about the series is that after a focused and disturbing introductory episode, it is split into two timelines about two different genres. While one line (about coming to terms) follows the original storyline, where one unfortunate decision starts a chain reaction of other unfortunate decisions, the other storyline is far too standard and procedural, which benefits mainly from the performance of Wever and her empathetic policewoman, which is in conflict with her type. However, the first storyline does not have the necessary space and omits the most interesting sequences of those three years. The latter, thanks to the standard course and compression, on the other hand, gives the impression of an ordinary series and also omits the most interesting part and at least also the epilogue involving “what the hell happened with the hard drive".
