Felt it moved too slowly---dragged.

Good movie. Compelling story. James Franco keeps getting better as an actor.

The best thing I can say about TRUE STORY is it kept my attention and the attention of the senior citizens in the audience. This first feature by director/co-writer Rupert Goold trudges along like a made-for-TV crime movie that would have been on CBS on a random Saturday night in the summer of 1987. Franco is serviceable but the rest does not live up to any major cinematic level.

It was long. Had good acting, but not much of a plot that can hold your interest.
