The movie is a lot to think about.


One thing I realized is how gullible we are to video or media.
There are points in this movie where they show a lot of fake or
imaginary scenes, and many of them have Kathleen, the wife,
walking up stairs, then slipping or losing her balance and falling.

The somehow even though we can see nothing in the video it is
like she hide some object that is not there, where there should be
a sharp object to fall on or a murder weapon there is nothing.

So, the question is, which is more likely to exist, a phantom
sharp object that caused all the injuries but that did not exist
when they looked around for said object, or a murder weapon
which could be anything, but functions as a murder weapon for
a time and then ends up hidden or destroyed.

Michael, a free man today, got away in two different countries,
with the same murder. And his family paid for it with their
time, their lives, and their inheritance ... something like a million
and a half for legal defense.

What does law, order or justice mean anymore to people?
