Citizen X

Rating:	★★★
Category:	Movies
Genre:	Drama

This movie was an alternate rendition of the story previously reviewed, "Evilenko". I must agree with other reviewers on Netflix. This is a much more watchable, realistic presentation of the story.

It begins with several bodies being found in a field and the soviet authorities not knowing what to do with a situation such as this. Officially, there are no serial killers in Russia so the establishment refuses to offer much help. The story progresses and is culminated by the lead detective doing his job over several years and profiling the killer.

In the end, a psychologist reads the suspect his profile on the killer and when the killer corrects him, they obtain a confession.

This was a very watchable film and was an interesting movie. If you aren't interested in forensics or detective shows, it probably doesn't offer much to you, but it does provide insight into what could be Russia's most notorious serial killer.
