Mini-Review: Mr. & Mrs. Murder
Hulu’s four-episode docuseries revisits a notorious Florida case that begins with a mysterious disappearance and unravels into something far darker.
While the story itself is strong and absolutely worth a documentary, the pacing leaves a lot to be desired. Four episodes felt unnecessarily long, with entire stretches devoted to details that could have been summed up in a sentence. The series leans heavily on one central voice, which limits the perspective and makes the narrative feel less balanced than other true crime docs.
It is still an interesting watch, but it’s one you might find yourself wishing moved faster. A tighter, more varied approach would have made this good story truly shine.
Mr. & Mrs. Murder has a great story but drags its feet, half the episodes would’ve told it twice as well. Have you watched it yet? What did you think? Comment below.
