Alicia I love this movie so much

Noutions Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

adonis98-743-186503 Over 40 years since the infamous Zodiac killer terrorised inhabitants of San Francisco and surrounds, three people stumble across homemade films of some of his murders. They then set out to track him down. Despite some solid perfomances from both Shane West and Leslie Bibb 'Awaking the Zodiac' is a waste of both time and talent. It starts kinda promising with a Zodiac murder that was indeed sinister and the 2 leading actors do try but both the script and the story lead nowhere and it feels more like a film from an amateur director rather than a good one. Check out Fincher's 'Zodiac' movie instead... (3/10)

sundawn I'll make this a short review since there is a couple longer ones already.Basically, a young couple and their friend decide to track down the zodiac killer to receive the $100.000 reward, so they start investigating.However, their behavior is absolutely ridiculous with no sense for consequences and danger at all. They have the maturity of toddlers and the intelligence you would expect from the average, stereotypical victims in horrormovies.This is very frustrating since the movie and the basic plot sound really good and could've easily made an 8/10 movie if executed well.I'd recommend the movie if you're looking for light entertainment and don't get fed up by the protagonists making predictable decisions.The movie itself is alright but you can't watch it without rooting for the bad guy because the protagonists are absolute morons and poorly written.Not even mentioning the end which is poor garbage and doesn't wrap up the film at all - pretty fitting for the movie...

rainmann-91785 this was complete garbage... at the end when they had killed him like 100% killed him and then you saw the news where it says its 4 weeks later. then you see them with fresh wounds and then it's like the guy never died. that's just a very small part of what was wrong little things throughout the entire film made this absolute garbage and I'm sad ever watched this film

hipCRANK The real life, unsolved Bay Area Zodiac killer case gets a fictional exhumation four decades after the murderous spree, when a trio of junk collectors stumble upon canisters of incriminating film. This clever retro take on the YouTube crime clip phenomena presents our innocents with a chance at a $100,000 reward. And we're off.For the most part, this is a terrifyingly terrific movie, full of creepy, shadowy scenes, hair- raising tension and clever comedic quips. Our trio of trailer trash Sherlocks are very engaging as they stagger into a complicated and dangerous world, not so much for possible riches, but also for adventure. Taunting cryptogram clues, a sinister hood, and creepy voice messages; the Zodiac put the "K" in killer.Great stuff, but it is almost ruined with a messy, straight forward, by the numbers, uninspiring climax. Which in turn is then inexplicably thrown under the bus with an attempt at an open ended, confusing conclusion. It really does suffer from a proper wrap. "Awakening The Zodiac" needs a rewrite tweak focusing more on mystery than monster. Still a pretty good thrill ride.
