Zusammenfassung
Reviewers say 'The Jinx' is a gripping true crime documentary exploring Robert Durst's life and alleged crimes. It is lauded for its detailed storytelling, interviews, and reenactments. The series effectively builds suspense and engages viewers, though some critics note artistic liberties. Wealth, power, and the justice system are key themes, with Durst's behavior and the shocking finale drawing attention. Comparisons to 'Making a Murderer' highlight the genre's influence and raise ethical questions about documentary filmmaking.

This show is fantastic...
i can't help but compare it to making a murderer...while i feel like it lacks the suspense and the shock value of making a murderer...it still is as profound and hard-hitting...
the story is built up slowly and the people being interviewed are introduced seamlessly at a point where their contribution is needed...it's very well done...
while it does feel like it wasn't wrapped up very well...the note on which it ends is very sublime...leaving you with questions and you're left wondering and shocked and puzzled...
the tone is well-suited...the pacing is great...it's very well told...what more can i say really...it's phenomenal!!
It moves you...and it tells the story of the man very well...just how a proper documentary can...there's hardly any flaws here...that's how good it is...

This is a documentary which follows Andrew Jarecki, as he pulls together the story of Robert Durst, who is suspected of killing his wife along with two others.
Robert Durst is part of the Durst family, a prominent property investment force in New York. Andrew Jarecki interviews Robert Durst extensively, along with other key players. He and his team are party to the uncovering of new evidence for these old crimes.
Amazingly, the tension is built and sustained then built again and again - I am sure whether to congratulate Andrew Jarecki as incredibly lucky for the revelations he gets to reveal, or his mastery as a film maker.
I believe that this series is a rare combination of both.
Highly recommended.

This is the BEST true crime documentary I have EVER seen!! It starts off slowly, but don't give up - stick with it all the way, get the full story, and you won't be disappointed - the ending is explosive!! (Don't look it up beforehand, just go in cold and watch it - you'll see the documentary makers' true skill).
Almost perfectly done, this documentary series has a solid base on its impeccable research and in the interviews with Robert Durst, the man with a disturbed personality who is, at the same time, incredibly charismatic. Episode by episode, we dive more deeply in the mind of this troubled man and also in the doubt that surrounds his actions. Producer Andrew Jarecki knew how to "feed" the spectator with the information in the correct pace, without spoiling the upcoming revelations and lead a true investigation that enlightened things that happened 30 years ago. If you like crime stories, you most definitely should watch. You'll not believe this is a real story being portrayed on the screen!
This is one of those movies\docs, that you'll find yourself waiting and crying for more and more ...still, you'll have the chance to drown into six episodes of a pure crime and suspense gem. I am I fan of shows such as True Detective, Fargo, etc, but this one, you'll have to see with a different eye, the eye that allow you to see through the detectives, director and, the killers eye ! Something that I do believe was never done before and that's what keeps this show one (or a thousand)steps further.Every time i do the shows review is because i do believe some shows are more than just good or great, they are imperative to watch,because we cannot pass through life without paying attention to some things that are really worth to be noticed, a lot of rubbish is dumped on TV ,but a lot of art is also available , you just have to make a choice,and i really want you to chose this one here ;)
