TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Nick (nickrissmeyer) Incredibly sloppy filmmaking with little to no original ideas. The amount of goofy screw ups is unreal and the film has aged very poorly. This is 100% Angelina Jolie worship with aspects of many other crime/murder/thriller movies thrown in as background noise. Watch Se7en or Zodiac instead.

Ryan Camplin This film is alright. It's nothing to rave about but at the same time I'm glad I watched it. Angeline Jolie is quite good in it, as is Ethan Hawke. There's nothing too amazing about it, there's a couple of alright twists here and there. You can probably see them coming though to be honest. There are some pretty exciting scenes, and without revealing too much, probably the best jump-scare I've ever experienced in any film. The soundtrack is pretty good, any film that opens with U2 then follows it up with The Clash is a winner in my eyes. Overall, a good thriller but pretty run of the mill. Worth a watch though if, like me, you are fascinated by all things serial killer and cat and mouse thrillers.

gavin6942 An FBI profiler is called in by French Canadian police to catch a serial killer who takes on the identity of each new victim.What a great cast, including a more mainstream role for Gena Rowlands, who steals every scene she is in. We also have a relatively young Angelina Jolie and Ethan Hawke in one of his stronger roles (far predating his Oscar nomination for "Boyhood").Unfortunately, the film starts strong but then slows down, becomes plodding and predictable. Some have called it just another average thriller, and that is more or less what it is. Neither great nor terrible, but ultimately forgettable.

SnoopyStyle This starts in 1983 St Jovite, young Martin Asher (Paul Dano) viciously kills a man. After the opening credit, the movie goes to today in Montreal. The police have Costa (Ethan Hawke) in custody who says he's witnessed a murder that bares a striking resemblance to the one earlier. Olivier Martinez is one of the cops who suspects Costa is hiding something. FBI special agent Illeana Scott (Angelina Jolie) is brought in to profile. They eventually settle on another suspect played by Kiefer Sutherland.The opening made a mistake. It's not clear enough that the first murder happened in the past. Flashing the dates for 2 seconds is not enough. I missed it, and I couldn't figure out the start at the first viewing. Paul Dano bears no resemblance to Ethan Hawke. So it was hard to figure out why the audience is given clues that Ethan Hawke is the killer.And there are a lot of little mistakes. Angelina Jolie is trying too hard to be that quirky FBI profiler type with the far away stare. There are too many clues, and too many obvious clues. There is good mood being put down, but there are too many little problems to overlook.
