Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

The made-for-TV Murder in Greenwich is a true crime story with a twist: the sleuth in pursuit of the truth here is former LAPD detective Mark Fuhrman, who gained infamy during the O.J. Simpson trial. Greenwich opens in 1997 with Fuhrman (Christopher Meloni of Oz), having relocated to Idaho and become a successful author, obsessed by the murder of Martha Moxley, a young woman from a wealthy Connecticut family who was brutally killed by an unknown assailant 22 years earlier. Fuhrman heads east, where his presence causes friction with the local law. But with the help of a retired cop (Robert Forster) who worked on the case, Fuhrman cuts through a maze of mismanaged investigations and cover-ups to place new suspicion on Moxley's wastrel neighbors, the Skakel brothers, who have familial ties to the Kennedys. Excellent performances by Meloni and Forster and direction make this a worthwhile case for true-crime buffs. --Paul Gaita

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful and informative, June 27, 2003

By A Customer

After reading the book (you know the book is always better) I was just sure the movie couldn't live up to that. You do, in fact, get more from the book, but I thought the movie did a fine job telling Martha's story. The way the actress (I can't remember her name) narrated the story as if it were really Martha telling it was very compelling. It sort of drew you in to the story and made it more personal. I found it to be a well-acted and well told story. Thank goodness Mr. Fuhrman did get involved and helped to get this case solved. The one crucial thing that needed to be done was to bring justice to a beautiful young girl and her family and to have her story tastefully told and I think both the movie and the book did just that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Crime Drama, April 2, 2008

I love crime drama. I love true stories. This DVD is about a real crime that took place years ago and was never solved...

Perhaps this was God's plan for Mark Furman...to solve the murder of this young girl years after her death. I'll bet that Mark Furman would have never looked into this murder, had the OJ Trial NOT turned out the way it did...sorry OJ had to go free, but OJ will be punished for his crime..in God's time.

5.0 out of 5 stars 1970s murder, November 11, 2008

By	Danielle J. Maloney "Danielle" (Texas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We very much enjoyed this move. We already knew the story, but enjoyed the way the story was told and loved seeing Chris Moloney in another roll!
