"Proves these complex, often harrowing stories don't always end when the bell rings."

"It feels as if the viewer is being worked, as if the industry vets featured here are doing what they can to keep the ambiguities at the heart of their livelihood as obfuscated as they once were. In that sense, it's as thrilling as a live wrestling show."
