I watched and enjoyed this 'documentary,' it is a very interesting murder mystery case. As a documentary is about uncovering and presenting the TRUTH to the audiance. The images presented in "What Jennifer Did" (terrible title, by the way, removes all suspense from the viewer within the first five minutes of the film because we already know who did it.) The images of Jennifer, however, have turned out to be A. I. generated. Presenting doctored images of a real life murderer on what is supposed to be a factual depiction of events undermines and undercuts the entire point of a documentary. The filmmakers have not only spread misinformation (even if it is only minor), they have undermined their purpose, and also delegitimized the actual victims of this crime. Netflix continues to prove to me they are against the artist, they have no hindsight, and they are anti-human in many ways. Will not be watching anything from these filmmakers ever again.

There's an interesting story here, one which numerous YouTube videos have covered, about a girl living in a suffocating home with high expectations who was clearly broken by the life she was forced to live. Instead, Netflix ops for the usual shock and awe, telling a fairly black and white story about a good girl living a life of lies who does everything to be a with a guy she couldn't be with. There's a lot of liberties taken with the story, to the point they don't even mention she has a brother. In the end, she's painted as this horrible monster when the story should have been focused on her home life, her relationship with her parents, and how this played into what happened. It feels dishonest, cold, and lacking. If you want to learn about this story, check YouTube and skip this doc.

8.0 stars. I'm coming from a place of unadulterated viewership. I never saw this "JCS" Youtube video they all talk about. So as I'm writing this review, I decided to check it out. The JCA Youtube channel gets millions of views for their true crime documentaries, however they aren't very prolific with the materials, posting a total of 20 videos over several years. I am guessing the makers of JCS hired to help with other documentaries (possibly this one) as a result of their success on Youtube (thus the possible reason they haven't posted a video in six months). It's obvious that Netflix tends to reach a different audience than Youtube where true crime is concerned. I don't watch true crime videos on Youtube, or anywhere to be honest, but I see this has been popular for some time and I figured I'd check it out. True crime is overplayed on television, with so many channels that air nothing but this stuff 24/7. And when it comes to documentaries, again Youtube has some great stuff, but it's mostly amateur, and so if you want a real review of how this Netflix version could affect you, just read on. Netflix did in fact nail this story about as good as any true crime documentary film could. How do I know? Well, it's been #1 for movies for several days. Comparing it to the Youtube version, I see some obvious differences. The Netflix version utilizes the tricks of the trade when it comes to evoking an emotional response. There is suspenseful music and excellent narration. The JCS version just spits out a lot of facts, but there is little emotion, just information, however it does present it in a very streamlined and interesting way. JCS succeeded in holding the audience's attention. In the end, it's really the narrative that sells itself. I knew she had done it and I don't recall ever hearing about this crime on the news, because there are thousands of true crime stories similar to this. But what makes this documentary so much more riveting is the girl Jennifer, herself. She was a master actress in the story of her own life, burned into the police files as a seemingly innocent, yet troubled emotional wreck. It all culminated into a tangled no-win predicament. Something in this woman snapped. I suppose we can't blame the parents, but let's face it, they (at least her father) probably bullied her to the edge of madness. She should've just walked away. Why didn't she just walk away? She won so many piano contests, why not just be a piano teacher or something?

Guess what jen did? She killed her parents of course! Wow what a dramatic presentation of an open and shut case. Outside of her time at college in which she did not attend, there is really no mystery about this. It was all over money. Anyway save yourself some time and watch something else. The audio is horrid. Everything is done at a whisper and nothing is sweetened in post production or if it was, it was done on an iphone lol. The detectives are super low energy and use baby talk to her in their interviews for the majority of this thing. By the end I just lost any connection with the family and event due to the annoying babytalk and mumbling and not sure why this story is special in the end. Sad but at least there is one less mumbling sociopath off the streets. NOT! Their case is currently being decided about a retrial and they could all walk free because jurors weren't given a man 2 option. Okay so I had to come back and add this along with wtaf was wrong with those detectives. The lady had some sort of head injury or was slow by normal standards and the guy detective was more interested in reading her a bedtime story than extracting any sort of truth. You have to be a real C- student to not request a lawyer, and even a C- student should have been able to mentally best those two lol. I hope they are both safely working in a file room where their skills would be useful. Just wow.

Used AI images of Jennifer, with the telltale deformed hands. If shows aren't created by humans, they shouldn't be watched by humans. Now the page is telling me that I need more words to be an actual review, so I'll repeat. If shows aren't created by humans, they shouldn't be watched by humans.

This case is well-known to me and, yes, I've seen the JCS channel on this. I've also watched Investigation Discovery ID and other true crime channels on tv about this case. This is what's good about the Netflix documentary: You get to hear from the detectives, see news reports, the highlights of Jennifer's interviews, interviews with the boyfriend, and crime scene photos. Of all the docs I've seen, I've never seen interviews with Wong, news footage, interviews with investigators, or crime scene photos. Just voiceovers about the strictness of the parents and the interviews with her. In at least one doc you did see camera footage of suspicious dad tracking the daughter to a workplace where she claimed to be employed and that's about it. Now maybe Netflix was aware of the takes already out there, so they went with another POV with the small amount of other footage available. The doc is short and can easily be supplemented through the ID channel on TV or any number of true crime channels on YouTube. If it delved deeper and longer, everyone would complain about padding and/or that it was too long and needed to be only, 90 minutes. Well this doc is just that, about 90 minutes. One thing of note is the lack of information about the other suspects. But they atleast showed Wong being interviewed and I've never seen anyone showing that. Never seen Nick on the other suspects either or even any court footage of any trials. The other thing I noted was, everyone was an idiot. I mean the parents were clueless and just never saw that their daughter just wasn't as smart as their expectations, although she apparently was very good with the piano, but that's a different skill set. Wong also was no genius. He gave everything away in his interview. Talked way too much, bringing up things that were never asked and directly making the cops suspicious of him and Jennifer. Neither asked for lawyers. As far as I can see, no genius was in operation here from the parents to Jennifer to the bf and the 3 clowns that couldn't even shoot straight. What a dumb mess. At no time did anyone tell Jennifer or did she tell herself, I'm an adult and I can walk away. The time and energy put into lying and creating false documents for 4 years could have actually gone into going to school and getting a decent job and moving out! Yes, I know about the issues with parents and kids in Asian and immigrant cultures, but guess what, millions of people go out on their own every single day. She had choices and chose the wrong one! Sad all around. Her diary indicated the pressures were more about her drug-dealing boyfriend than anything else. Abby parent would object! Also, I think the Netflix doc gave is enough information about her motivation. Also, is never heard she tried to do it before! Not sure how much more Netflix could spell it out. She maintains her innocence to this day so no more information is coming forth. They all won retrials, too!
