I Am DB Cooper

Habitual criminal Rodney Bonnifield tells bounty hunters Carlos Rocha and Mike Rocha that he is the real DB Cooper. He has a tale to tell. In 1971, DB Cooper parachuted with $200k loot from a passenger plane and into infamy as the only unsolved plane jacking FBI case. Rodney is an overweight white guy. He recounts his criminal life with ease and the group sets off to find the rest of the missing loot.

Here's the deal. I'm certain that Rodney isn't DB Cooper. That doesn't mean that I'm not taken by his tall tales. It's white trash fun like a lot of 'reality' TV. I have come to accept that most psychopaths are undetectable liars. In fact, people with experience dealing with criminals can often be overconfident in their truth-seeking skills and get tricked. This is stuff of rundown bars and poor trailer parks.

As an avid DB Cooper aficionado, I will watch everything that even mentions the name. When I watched the trailer for this a few weeks ago I knew immediately it was going to be garbage. Some people are awful liars, and the subject in this "documentary" is one of those people. It's so apparent he's looking for fame that there is zero need for a polygraph. 300000 years of human evolution is all anyone with a functioning brain needs to see through his absurd claims. Half this film is made up of actors pretending to speak for people who they clearly didn't get the dialogue from. The only way I can recommend this is if you enjoy unintentional comedy. Otherwise...save your money. It's that preposterous.

Awful acting - no interesting actual facts. Zero actual evidence. 'Dramedy' at best. Do not waste $5 on this movie like we did, it's more like a bad cast of actor-wannabes instead of dramatic portrayers of real-life events. The title is misleading and as someone who has been following the DB Cooper mystery for the past 20 years - this was an absolute joke.

Rodney is a likable and potentially convincing protagonist - he's not the problem. The problem is with the producers and directors of this film and the fact they thought people who've actually been following the db copper case would enjoy this whatsoever.

Give me a break. This movie is a total waste of time. This 19-year-old with no parachute experience hijacked a plane, jumped and survived? They do ZERO fact-checking until they dig for four hours and find NO money? This loser is like Eric Cartman telling a grandiose story about himself on South Park. He's the greatest robber of all time; all women love him; most popular guy on Earth. The other people and crew of this movie are either knowingly lying or are the DUMBEST people you could meet. Definitely get a bail bond from this guy, because you can escape in a heartbeat without paying. I plan to tell the producers and documentarians that I was in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963 even though it was 14 years before I was born. They CERTAINLY will believe that I played badminton with Lee Oswald. BTW - notice the "Entertaining beyond belief" review is left by "M. ROCHA" and there is a person named Mike Rocha in this movie. HMMMMMMM.

Terrible format making up fake interviews with people. Interesting story just put together very poorly. It's possible this guy could be DB also possible. Mystery is stop up in the air.
