I did not get to see this whole series on tv, so I was happy when I saw it on the shelf in the store.

First off, inside the slipsleeve the Bluray came with was covered in factual dates of the real events, so that was awesome! Btw, the bluray was only $20. I was pumped. The cast is supurb in the retelling of the infamous OJ Simpson trial and murders that preceeded it. They, like in realiry, were overshadowed by the magnitude of his celebrity status. The press and defense team turned it into an LA police racial prejudice move...but, you come to your own conclusions. Stand outs from: Sarah Paulson as Marcia. I mean, come on, right? Perfect casting. David Schwimmer as OJs friend and late Kardashian father. Selma Blair as Kris Kardashian. Watch this series,. You won't regret it.

I'd seen some of the actors on talk shows, discussing this movie, and had heard from others who'd seen it that it was good - and then it won a Golden Globe - and rightly so. I remembered (I thought, vividly) the whole OJ Simpson arrest and trial, but some of it I'd remembered wrong and other pieces I'd never known. Watching these actors play their real-life characters was like watching it on the news. It was so true-to-life and we all found it so interesting and, as I mentioned earlier, well done. I would recommend this movie to anyone who either doesn't know the story or doesn't remember it well - or even those who do. Very enlightening and so well acted. No over-dramatization or over-acting in this film.

Every once in a while, a series or show appears on television that captivates, mesmerizes, and astonishes you by the brilliance of the writing, the acting, and in every other way. The People vs. OJ Simpson is one such program. Brilliant on a so many levels, it's hard to find flaw with even one scene in this spectacular television event. From Sarah Paulson and Sterling Clarke's out-of-this-world portrayals of the trial prosecution to a master class acting ensemble playing the Defense Team and Defendant to all of the bit parts sprinkled in along the way, this was appointment viewing at its finest. You simply didn't want to miss a minute.

I still vividly remember all the television coverage and the daily front pages detailing OJ and this horrible crime. THE PEOPLE V OJ SIMPSON brings this all back in a television drama that is first rate. Great storytelling or retelling the story, even though the details are still etched in my memory, but the television drama told the personal side of everyone involved and in a way that the viewers now know exactly everything that happened from seeing those involved, as if we were f;lies on the wall. Too sad that an American hero proved to fall off his pedestal, and in the very worst way. Get the DVD..IT'S AN ABSOLUTE MUST.
