Half-hearted

This movie lends a lot to the books by Peter Øvig Knudsen, but it's different in one important way. The books focuses on the interesting characters of the gang e.g. Holger Jensen, but the movie focuses on a much more marginal character namely Bo Weymann. The interviews in the movie deals with the guilt motif, but doesn't manage to ask any of the tough questions.
A new trend in documentaries is the use of visual effects, in this movie the result is dire - the effects looks fine, but they don't seem justified. Why do we have to see a 3D gun with smoke coming out of the barrel, what does these kind of images add to the movie?
Watching this movie was quite entertaining, but considering the price-tag it carries it is all in all a disappointment.
