It was an open shut case with hundred of witnesses seeing the murder suspect trying to dispose of a body and a signed confession from the suspect himself. And yet when the case was ready for court, the prosecutor discovered that the case was not as it appeared. The murder was but a cover for another more shocking injustice. He spent ten years trying to uncover the truth, toiling away his youth, his career, his reputation, his family, and even his life.

谢飞导演 4.00/5.00

继《无证之罪》,《隐密的角落》之后又一部改编自紫金陈小说、爆红的网络剧,评分很高在于题材较好地触及了官商勾结、警黑牵线、平反冤案的社会现实。三层时间平行叙事,有些交错呼应、视听剪辑的不错段落;当然也带来了影响主要人物充分塑造的散乱瑕疵。导演是本科及硕士都在北美影视专业院校学习的新秀,在国外留学又能回国拍好影视作品的人不多,这位陈奕甫导演的表现,难能可贵。

欢乐分裂 3.00/5.00

原著文本的胜利,故事立意委实值得赞美,能被还原至此实属不易——尤其以巧妙转场对接方式来实现三个时空的切换,堪称本剧最大亮点;但颇为遗憾的是,除此以外的视听语言与拍手手法着实平庸,甚至部分剪辑令人迷惑。漫说广告植入的牵强,主旋律倾向特别令人不适,收尾处领导指示与表彰大会十分无语;对原著中提及的系统/体制核心问题未深入,这才是导致沉默真相的最大阻力啊——不过考虑到大环境,也是十分无奈了。向漫漫长夜中坚持公义、追求真相的人们致敬。

黄青蕉 4.00/5.00

比起坏小孩,这部明显更难拍,因为毫无喘息的空间,就是沉重,沉重,拖着口棺材上山一样的沉重,费力不讨好。观赏效果是不及隐秘的,就像无证之罪也打不过白夜追凶一样,但有人拍出来了,拍得诚意工整,这本身就值得褒扬
