Citations
George Nassar: See, you all created a myth, and it needed to be stopped. People wanted to believe it was Al, but they needed to believe it was Albert. The alternative was just too disturbin'.
Loretta McLaughlin: What's that?
George Nassar: There are many Albert DeSalvos out there. And your safe little world is just a delusion. Men kill women. It didn't start with Albert. Sure as hell doesn't end with him neither.

Going through the motions. Lacking in true spark and thrill. Copycat.

I love Keira Knightley as an actress in many other movies, but somehow she didnt shine in this role as a female journalist unravelling a serial murder mystery.

The bad: this movie is simply going through the motions. No surprises. No spark or punch. No real thrill. No originality. Everything about this serial killer movie has been done better by others before...

More bad: it has got an annoyingly heavy soundtrack, that must constantly remember me as a viewer, that now THIS scene and now THAT scene is suppose to be ominous and spooky. When it's no such thing. Bummer!

Not any good then? Honestly, I have been critisizing this movie but it's certainly not a terrible movie, merely a rather BLAND and BORING one.

Similar to many other reviewers on Imdb, I also had many flashbacks of the brilliant movie called "The Zodiac" (2007) with Robert Downey Jr. And Jake Gylenhaal. Go watch THAT movie instead of this failed COPYCAT flick! "The Zodiac" (2007) is HIGHLY recommended by me and by many other true fans of this genre!
