Chris Hansen has seen the movie Primetime, and he gave Robert Pattinson a D score for his acting. He shared his thoughts online after seeing it.

Chris Hansen calls Primetime largely fiction

In an interview, Hansen repeated a point he made before the movie even came out: that it's largely a work of fiction. He said the film did get the overall premise of the show correct, but that most of it was fabricated and dramatized for Hollywood purposes.

Why I disagree about Robert Pattinson

I disagree with him. I believe Pattinson's performance was incredible, but I do understand his perspective.

I also think Hansen was an absolute genius for running ads for his own network ahead of the movie. I'm sure many more people will be looking up his name and seeking out his old shows, so it will help him in the long run.
