Hansen refuses to see the film initially

The former host stated he left A24 offices without viewing the movie because of a legal agreement they requested. He described the contract terms as something he had never encountered before in his career.

Hansen calls the portrayal detached from reality

After watching Lance Oppenheim's drama, Hansen called the depiction bizarre and not reflective of his actual investigative work. He noted that while his family thought Robert Pattinson did a good imitation, he felt the character was too dramatic.

Hansen promises full review on podcast

The host filmed a short clip outside a theater to share these initial thoughts with viewers. He plans to post his complete reaction on his YouTube channel and podcast at 7 p.m. ET on Friday.
