Chris Watts: Confessions of a Killer

I rather liked the movie tried to get the facts and re-enactments close to what happened I think but of course it's so sad about what happened to this beautiful family may they rest in peace

Some reviewers have missed the point of this film. It isn't entertainment so much as an historical document following the actual timeline closely and without gratuitous violence. If one serious criticism can be made of it, it is that it was produced with indecent haste, but this is hardly the first time American cinema/TV has done something like this. The TV film "Amanda Knox" was released less than four years after that infamous murder in Perugia and while legal proceeding were ongoing. As Watts confessed and there is no suggestion of either another suspect or a belated claim of insanity, the legal proceedings are at an end in this case.

"I'm not a monster" he says in the police interrogation room. You strangled your heavily pregnant wife then murdered your two beautiful young daughters, then blamed their murders on the first victim, then instead of doing the decent thing and ending your own life, you disposed of their bodies like pieces of rubbish. If you aren't a monster, who is?

Chris is a total disgusting monster, but if you really look into this case you know Nichol was in on it for sure and this movie made her out to be another victim, no way.

She lied dozens of times and changed her story several times No alibi Phone pinged near his house at time of the murders Deleted tons of evidence off her phone Told Chris to delete stuff off his phone and pawn her wedding ring Helped plan the attempted miscarriage w/ oxy Knew about the entire Watts family before Chris even met her, and before she even started working for Chris's company.

Lied about not knowing he was married or that she was pregnant.

Had tons of very damning google searches from what they did recover from her phone.

Those are just a few things, I highly encourage people to look into her. This movie disgraces the victims by making her seem like a saint.

RIP Shanann, Bella, Celeste, and Nico.

Awful representation of an innocent woman, awful hints at excuses for watts' behaviour. Awful depiction of watts as some kind of character it almost seems like they want us to like. Because they sure didnt want us to like his poor, innocent wife!! Awful timing. Completely disrespectful. Her poor family must be so upset. There have been far better films produced about killers where the psychology is thoroughly explored and the victims more honorably portrayed. This just reeked of a rush to make money as fast as possible. Almost just a copy of the police bodycam footage and stuff with nothing new added. Awful.

I've been a visitor of IMDB for 13 years, and have never found a reason to join/comment as others have said what needs to be said...But this.. two years after a disgusting massacre occurs, so does this documentary. No reason, purpose, dignity or integrity. I do not recommend this to anyone, what is the point?? As someone who studies serial/heinous cases, this shouldn't have been made. The agenda behind this is to normalize it, when this happens daily. Think about it. Sending whoever reads this light and big love.
