For a docudrama about a serial killer who murdered more than 50 people, Citizen X is unreasonably dull. The focus is on the years-long investigation, which is unravels tediously. Considering the murderer is shown to us early in the film, only to be captured and then released midway through the film, there's no suspense. It's just a matter of how long it will take to bring him to justice. That's slightly over 100 minutes. Donald Sutherland is fairly good here even if he can't keep a consistent Russian accent.
