Inside Look: The Assassination of Gianni Versace - American Crime Story

The sadness of this story based on real events is unbearable at times. Darren Criss gives life to Andrew Cunanan, the killer of Gianni Versace. His performance reminded me that Cunanan was a human being and at the same time there is practically no room for sympathy. Cunanan in Criss's eyes is compelling, terrifying and utterly pitiful. The series uses the murder of Gianni Versace to tell us the sordid tale of his killer. The series is structured in a way that forces you to pay attention. I liked it but I seem to be in the minority there. Loved Penelope Cruz as Donatella Versace. She's great fun to watch and Edgar Ramirez is a dead ringer for the slain designer. Ricky Martin was a bizarre casting choice but Judith Light a stroke of genius. So, terrific, thank you.

Can I lock you in there. You sure can. Is what I would say, take my keys. Sir I have children - pow. This Cunanan is vile beyond belief. I truly don't think there is a word that can describe him. So with that said...the actors receive A+++++++ . They were so encompassing and believable. They sure did the job asked of them. I can't wrap my brain around such hate. I just am speechless.

Honestly this series scared me to the core and that's very rare! The acting is sublime in it and Darren Criss was phenomenal in his role! I can't say I enjoyed it because it was so uncomfortable and eerie to watch! A masterpiece portrayal into the mind of a psychotic killer. I personally never felt any empathy for the character thankfully! I did however feel so so sorry for Andrews ex lover David Madsen! So so sad!...Anyone calling this series bad has not watched the same thing I have!...

Story very well portrayed and tole, great acting and excellent directing. Very interesting to learn about the killer and his life. All the actors were excellent. Nicely done!

I remember hearing about Andrew Cunanan when I was a teenager. I never knew he was a serial killer & on the FBI's 10 most wanted list. I knew about the Versace murder, but none of the rest. I learned a lot by watching this series. He was a very strange character. Mentally ill but brilliant at the same time. A total freak show. I spent a lot of time on Google fact checking while watching the show. I liked the way they skipped around back and forth throughout the series. It was put together very well. Very interesting story. Give it a watch..8 stars
