Review of The Reckoning

The Reckoning (2023)
7/10
Hidden In Plain Sight
15 October 2023
This is the dramatization of a true story about an evil UK DJ turned "tv star" who used his fame to get away with hideous crimes.

As he became famous, he was able to use that fame as a cover to commit crimes against mainly children.

The film is in 4 parts and has snippets of interviews with brave actual victims as well as showing real-life excerpts from the various activities this criminal did during his life.

The lead actor gives a show stopping performance revealing what a repulsive person is like behind the camouflage.

Not only during his later years the DJ was treated as a VIP by the media and the public; royalty gave him top honors and after he died his funeral was as if he was a Monarch.

Fooling most of the people all of the time

Dear oh dear!

To me what this movie reveals is that not only in the UK but around the world we are guilty of allowing celebrity status to mask and excuse some awful individuals:

7/10.
