    Interesting, but a bit dull documentary on James A. Hogue. Not very revealing on his motives, and I found this curious. In addition, the documentary is focused primarily on his fraudulent admission to Princeton University, yet Hogue committed other con-man type crimes not mentioned. I learned more by reading one page from the Time website. Not bad, just a bit boring.

    This movie was really interesting, this guy cons his way into Princeton, but the interviews with his fellow classmates and track teammates seems to suggest that he deserved to be there. There is a more relevant case, not included in this movie, in which a man conned his way into Harvard. Ultimately this movie is well paced and really fascinating.
