...it's Nesbitt's career-best performance that sets the tone (...) As he shifts from cocky politician to ashen-faced witness, he helps the audience to understand that this is a human tragedy that goes beyond the sectarian divide.

What an achievement! Greengrass' reality concept is heart breaking 1-0-1 cruel. No emotional score. No engaging voiceover. Just pictures showing us the day unfold.  Ut's then up to us/you to judge the actions.
