It’s a daring, immersive undertaking by USA, while also being far removed from the usual true crime suspects--lately the Menendez Brothers and Waco-based cult leader David Koresh.
Where all this ends up, you already know. But at least Unsolved does a good job of making you care about the failure. Engaging, interesting, watchable.
In the end, despite its the ungainly amount of information it tries to unload and parse, for reasonably long stretches, Unsolved has the propulsive energy and stylish pop of a pretty good nighttime soap. But it’s one that, to its credit, never loses sight of the untimely deaths that brought this whole complicated story to life.
Unsolved is equal parts appealingly pulpy and workmanlike, sometimes paced like a procedural and sometimes like a prestige drama.
A cut above NBC’s ultimately disappointing “Law & Order True Crime: The Menendez Murders” but not quite on par with FX’s “American Crime Story.”
Not ambitious enough to break the mold but generically effective while fitting within it, Unsolved isn’t all that it could be or enough of what it should be.
Ultimately, just like those Fake Biggie songs, it all comes off as a hollow imitation once you really listen to it. Unsolved’s default is a string of clichéd cop-speak. ... The rest of the time, it’s all clumsy exposition dumps and self-consciously “streetwise” dialogue, sprinkled with awkward rap references. Unsolved may strut like a gangsta, but it sounds like a narc.
