Depp V Heard (2023)
6/10
Fandom is a Double Edged Sword

This documentary was fine. It was exactly what it sold itself to be....a side by side comparison of testimony from TWO VERY damaged people who HURT EACH OTHER and also happen to be extremely wealthy and in the public eye. It also highlighted the unfortunate power of random keyboard fan warriors, which seems to be a fact that is lost on everyone.

I did not watch this trial because I do not care about these people. I did watch this documentary simply due to the lack of new content because of the strikes.

My takeaway from this documentary...as someone who could not possibly care less...is that it told the story it said would tell. I appreciated that it highlighted how random, ill-informed public opinion on social media influences everything, and also how the legitimate media just takes that ball and runs with it.

If you're not some crazed super-fan, I recommend. It's interesting enough.
