I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

A Brilliant Conflict

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The Secret Identity of Jack the Ripper is was Great idea to making USA/UK documentary based on the true story about serial killer in UK rumors heard about this monster who coming after others women in 19th century and kill them.

THE SECRET IDENTITY OF JACK THE RIPPER is a 1988 television movie aiming to provide a fresh look at the facts and theories behind the infamous Whitechapel murders. It's an odd little concoction of reenactment footage, news-style reporting, and round-table debate chaired by the delightful Peter Ustinov.Surprisingly, all of the above hangs together reasonably well and provides fitfully interesting viewing, although I'm sure that some experts on the case will find the material lacking - this wasn't designed to be definitive, just fun. What I enjoyed most about THE SECRET IDENTITY OF JACK THE RIPPER was the semi-serious approach that brought to mind the delights of BBC'S GHOSTWATCH, with Jan Leeming the recognisable face (as Michael Parkinson was) who grounds the whole thing.

This may have been considered cutting edge in terms of information and production in 1988; in 2010 it's best used as a Ripperologist drinking-game for those stout of liver.Yes, there is an impressive list of experts (and Jan Leeming) on-board, but instead of Agatha Christie we get Peter Ustinov hopefully speaking for all concerned, with the gravitas of someone more mindful of whether their cheque has cleared yet and if anyone outside the US need ever watch.Anyone interested in the subject and the facts thereof are advised to read Philip Sugden's The Complete History of Jack The Ripper (New Edition) and take it from there.

this is an extremely interesting documentary on jack the ripper and who he really was.the difference is this documentary also has a panel of experts who weigh in on the subject,and give their opinions of who the killer was.when this documentary was made over 20 tears ago,there were were a only a handful of suspects.since that time,there may have been more information and other/more suspects.or the identity of the ripper may have been definitively proved. i don't necessarily think the show was successful in unmasking the killer,but it certainly could have been one of the suspects which they focused on.nonetheless,it is highly informative and entertaining,and well researched.Peter Ustinov as host was a good choice.i enjoyed his dry wit and dark sense of humour.for me,The Secret Identity of Jack the Ripper is a 10/10
