DarthClement's review about Defending Jacob(2020)

A miniseries that may not be incredibly innovative in its forms, but it definitely has enough to keep you hooked, and the performances of its excellent cast are central to that. In the end, the series leaves you pondering, and therein lies its impact and narrative effectiveness.

Is he the killer?.I decided to read the book after watching it, and I like they changed some things, mostly at the end. In the book, the author kinds of give more clues to make us believe that he’s the killer, while on the show it’s impossible.

Jaeden Martell is a star.I read this book and I was very excited to watch the show. The entire cast is amazing, but Jaeden Martell is the star. Not because he’s the main character, but because he was able to bring Jacob to life in a way that we can never be sure if he was, or was not, the killer. Give this kid more roles, he deserves it.
