Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory

Destined to rank as one of the major achievements in American documentary, the "Paradise Lost" project comes to a presumed end with Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory.

Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky's final film about the West Memphis Three demonstrates how the first two docs played a role in galvanizing national support to free the wrongly convicted men.

This is one of the most fascinating of all true crime stories.

The new film is more informational than resonant. But you can still sense a vacuum, a rat pit of stories waiting to be unearthed. The dark something that triggered the whole ordeal in West Memphis is still out there.

The final film in the Paradise Lost series accomplishes what it seeks out to do - enrage at the injustice done upon these three men. Without having seen, or heard of, any of the previous installments in the series, Purgatory fills you in quickly, then gets right to business and envelops you in it's tale of wrongful conviction and invokes empathy almost immediately. It is made with a sense of urgency and keeps frustrating and frustrating until there is a final, if bittersweet resolution, to this stressing, important tale that deserves to be heard.

No absolutely not, this is the worst movie of all time. You must be smoking crack if you like this movie.
