 | This is by far one of my favorite movies. Once this DVD became available I had it in my hands. The acting is terrific! Denzel and Angelina had great chemistry and the cast was dynamic.
The movie was dramatic, witty, and fast paced; the rapport and cast interaction was terrific and interesting.
There was not one boring moment - EXCELLENT FILM! Highly recommend it!

 | The story was nicely produced with excellent color. The mystery being solved was nicely handled throughout the movie. The killer was completely unexpected and it was unclear why the detective had not checked up on those around him (the killer in this case) when it was realized the killer had to be a forensic expert. This loose end in no way interferred with the suspense. After the climactic scene the rest of the movie seemed superflous. I guess they just had to get Angelina Jolie into a tight dress some how and bring Lincoln's sister into the movie. |

 | Excellent movie, close as you can get to the book. Angelina Jolie and Denzel Washington chemistry was off the scale. Will keep you guessing until the end of the movie. |

 | This movie is probably one of the most boring movies of both Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie's careers. I was expecting something in the tradition of The Silence of the Lambs or Seven. Wow was I wrong. This is the type of movie that I'd only recommend watching if you don't have anything better to do. Your time would be better spent reading the novel by Jeffery Deaver.

 | As a thriller, this is a pretty good movie, but it suffers from what the books suffer from - namely Rhymes irritatingly correct deductions from the evidence when many many alternate possibilities must, and do, exist.
That quibble aside, this movies looks pretty good - in a "post-Seven dystopian gloom" filled kind of a way. Jolie looks great - as always. I can watch this movie just to catch THAT dress at the end. Oh boy.
Why did the movie producers change Jolie's character from Jewish to the daughter-of-an-Oirish cop? Sachs to Donaghy? Did they think an ex-model Jewish beat cop was what, too incredible? Surely in whatever movie she is in, Ms Jolie stretches credibility just because people as beautiful as her don't exist in real life doing menial jobs like the rest of us. So why change her character? If I remember rightly ( and I may not ) isn't Sachs' Jewishness very useful in at least one of Rhymes later cases? |
