Such a frustrating disappointment

A different way of telling a story

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Really impressed with this film. Hadn't heard anything about this film so was really surprised how good it was.

Al Pacino was excellent and the other reviews about his dialect are wrong. His accents didn't change through out the movie. Excellent acting and the storyline was superb the way it tied in with the first victim. It kept me focused the whole time and that is hard to do since I'm in a wheelchair and have a large database of movies. A movie is only as good as it's storyline and this was near perfect.

Yes I did. And a number of scenes I did like. But scenes do not make a movie. Not a whole one anyway. Al Pacino has seen better days, but that may have been what he was going for. A jaded, tired old detective pulled off of doing nothing by his old partner... knowing Pacino's method style that maybe the case. Therefore I cannot judge the man by the role. Karl Urban had nothing to go non but the standard cop routine so again this film is not an indication he ought to stcik to Star Trek films! Britney Snow was good. She had perhaps the best role in the film as far as scenes and dialog. The killer?? Nothing new here. High IQ psycho with a grudge against not just life but a particular person - all been done before. While I wanted to like it, in the end (which really was terrible), I couldn't. Four stars for the Pacino\Urban\Snow dynamic.

I'll be honest, I had no idea WTF Hangman game was, it's not common outside West. The only reason I saw the movie was because of Urban and Pacino, two of my favorite actors.So basically, I saw the whole movie without researching "Hangman" (the game), expecting there to be a short scene where they would casually mention what Hangman game was played like (can be easily done without making it look like they're explaining it to the audience). So if you aren't a Westerner or have no idea what this game is, most of the stuff the killer does seems more ridiculous than usual. After I watched the movie, I searched on YouTube to see what Hangman game was about (there's like a one min video explaining it, that's all the movie needed as well). This is whole new level of sloppy.ANYWAY, what's hilarious is that after knowing what Hangman game is like, this movie seems even dumber. First of all, I had no idea where they were making most of the connections from. They seem to be assuming a lot of things and Pacino's character is freakin Sherlock Holmes so he's always right about things. In-fact, dialogues are so pointlessly trying to over-complicate things, that you just zone out and stop caring (kinda like the actors who are there just for a paycheck).The murders are just ridiculously dumb. Why does the killer pick Hangman game to kill people? I don't know, THEY don't know, it's never explained. Killer is played by a unimpressive actor who only ONCE makes a appearance in the middle of the movie, until the end. And that middle appearance is nothing special. He seems to hang around every murder and our two heroes are so incompetent that they can't take down a serial killer who keeps showing up at every crime. Hell, in one scene there are cops everywhere next to the murder victim and the killer is casually walking around for dramatic effect.Skipping right to the ending, it's the dumbest thing I've ever seen. There is no resolution cause the director thought that this turd would get a sequel, somehow. Knowing Hollywood, it probably will.Why does this movie have 5/10 rating here? This should be about 1/10.
