The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst: Part Two | Rotten Tomatoes (2024)

85% Tomatometer 34 Reviews 90% Popcornmeter Fewer than 50 Ratings

A groundbreaking documentary directed and produced by Andrew Jarecki and produced and shot by Marc Smerling (the Oscar nominees behind "Capturing the Friedmans") delves into the strange history of real estate heir Robert Durst, long suspected in the still-unsolved 1982 disappearance of his wife as well as the subsequent murders of family friend Susan Berman and neighbor Morris Black. It features an extended, revealing interview with Durst himself, with whom Jarecki developed a unique relationship following the release of "All Good Things," Jarecki's 2010 feature about Durst's life starring Ryan Gosling and Kirsten Dunst. "The Jinx" results from nearly a decade of research by the filmmakers, who expose police files, key witnesses, never-before-seen footage, private prison recordings, and thousands of pages of formerly hidden documents.

The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst: Part Two | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Kurt Suchman TheWrap With plenty of references to the original “Jinx” throughout the new season, it often feels like watching an awkward attempt at a victory lap to recapture the original magic. Aug 8, 2024 Full Review The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst: Part Two | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) Andrew Jarecki returns as director, complete with jailhouse calls from the always willing to engage Durst to play, but as expertly as this is assembled you can’t call it essential. May 2, 2024 Full Review The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst: Part Two | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Amber Dowling Globe and Mail The Jinx Part Two feels like the ending this true crime doc always needed, one that gives new insight into two important camps: those who protected Durst and those who worked tirelessly to bring him to justice. Apr 29, 2024 Full Review The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst: Part Two | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Alison Gillmor Winnipeg Free Press Stranger than fiction, almost too slick to be real... May 10, 2024 Full Review The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst: Part Two | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Alison Lanier Pajiba With returning faces and new personalities, it’s a story where we know the ending but watching it take shape, step by careful step, is an exercise in the power of narrative from one minute to the next. May 9, 2024 Full Review The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst: Part Two | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Andrew Anthony Observer (UK) While most criminals have learned to say nothing in police interviews, in the US at least the lure of the TV camera seems to loosen the tongues of even the most ruthless fiends and their helpers.

Sal D If you liked Season 1, you will find Season 2 a worthy time investment but it pales in comparison to Season 1. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/05/24 Full Review David H Great follow up to the first season. Jarecki does a brilliant job in the interviews bringing out the people and characters involved. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/30/24 Full Review Mike P I know this is one of the most critically acclaimed true crime docuseries ever, and I know this is going to sound like blasphemy, but I found it really boring. I had to rewatch the opening episode like three times, and the story still didn't sink in. There's too many talking heads stacked up, one upon the next; and they should have varied that up with re-enactments or something. The idea, that this is one of the slickest serial killers ever; so slick he's got everyone thinking he's a "jinx"...Is an interesting one; but the producers don't sell this well enough.Overall: Not Recommended 👎 Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/27/24 Full Review Secret S Part two is off to a fine start and leaving us wanting more. Jarecki is a master storyteller, and Durst remains a fascinating subject. The less we see of Jeanine Pirro clutching her pearls at the injustice of it all, or any injustice for that matter, the better. I might buy her "oh, the humanity" bit if she herself had clean hands. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/27/24 Full Review Read all reviews
