Christina Reviews *Citizen X*

         Citizen X is about a Russian serial killer who targets children and mentally challenged people in particular. Stephen Rea plays a detective who is looking to crack the case. The problem is that those in charge don’t want to accept that a serial killer is on the loose because it makes their country look bad.

         It’s really a very interesting true story about a Russian detective being railroaded at every turn when all he’s trying to do is bring a killer to justice.

         I don’t remember the movie being all that graphic. There are scenes where children are killed, but nothing is really shown. It’s more psychologically intense than graphic.
