About this movie

IN COLD BLOOD is the powerful, true story of a callous murder, based upon the best-selling novel byTruman Capote. A prosperous and respected Kansas farmer, his wife and his two teenage children are wantonly and brutally slaughtered. The murderers are two mindless ex-convict drifters: Perry Smith (Robert Blake) and Dick Hickock (Scott Wilson). Neither of the men are sane enough to regret their crime. The story penetrates the inner workings of the criminals minds as it follows their purposeless meandering through Mexico and the United States in evasion of the law. After more than a year of wandering, the hunted men are finally caught, tried and in a dramatic conclusion condemned to hang.

Intense, dark, brooding and utterly terrifying true life tale. Unfortunately it's also extremely slow and loses it's way in the middle, most of it was pretty boring. Would have been much better had they cut out half hour (or more!) of virtually nothing really happening. Too much time was given to the killers. Why? Are we supposed to feel sorry for them? Too many long and boring speeches from Perry which made this tedious and incredibly dull. Soundtrack was also extremely annoying. I still recommend you watch it but it's very overrated imo.
