Robin H 1d An interesting coverage of this extraordinary case. However the whole affair acquired an air of fantasy when everyone started to question the compelling evidence. There was a Chinese so-called expert, Mr Shoo Lee, who came along years later, claiming that he and his associates had decided that in EVERY ONE of the seventeen cases the official diagnosis of death was wrong . There were people brushing aside the concrete evidence that there were NO BABY DEATHS amongst the several hundred births both before and after the presence of Lucy Letby as the nurse in charge. There was no psychological evidence to explain why the clear confessions in her diaries should have been the result of disturbed fantasising as claimed. Why anyone should be bothering to sabotage such a clear cut case is bewildering, and the program should have investigated that. Oh, and the accompanying menacing sound track was both distracting and utterly inappropriate. Why do directors do that? See more Aye E 5d Not only was the topic disturbing but it's barely watchable each time the AI interviewees come on the screen making inhuman micro-expressions. Just made me uncomfortable and queasy. There are so many other ways it could've been done if they didn't want to be identifiable. Even if they had actors portraying them it would've sounded more authentic and actually emotional then it did with these AI renderings. Or put the subjects in shadow behind a screen with wigs and hats on, it's worked fine before!!! See more TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch 5d The Investigation of Lucy Letby on Netflix tackles a truly shocking criminal case involving the deaths of children under her care. While the subject is inherently compelling, the documentary falls flat in execution. The pacing is slow, the storytelling monotonous, and key details lack impact, leaving viewers disengaged. Interviews and archival footage are competent but uninspired, and the narrative often feels forced, making it hard to stay invested. The series also struggles to balance factual reporting with emotional engagement, which makes the viewing experience tedious rather than gripping. Despite the horrific events at its core, it fails to create real tension or insight into the case. Overall, it’s a missed opportunity that doesn’t do justice to the story, leaving audiences frustrated and underwhelmed, rather than educated or captivated. See more Tor T @tor_tuga 5d This documentary is insulting. Netflix should be embarrassed for using AI instead of hiring human actors for anonymity. It makes the entire movie journalistically questionable at best and unwatchable at worst. Do better, Netflix.

Netflix should be ashamed for putting out this garbage. The AI was terrible and there was zero suspense See more Read all reviews
