Saw yesterday - this movie is not good

Rating: Null/10 (22 October 2001)

I thought this movie was going to be a thriller/crime drama or at least a stylized horror movie based on whom the police thought was the real killer - someone named "Kosminski" - who alot of people dont know about. Instead it turned out to be a supernatural "movie of the week" piece of fluff. Cmon!!! I mean having an investigator who can see the future? Johnny Depp as basically a police "nostradamus"? Give us a break! This movie was a joke. And what was the need to have John Merrick (the "elephant man") as a cameo? This does not make sense. And those ridiculuos "hallucinagenic/dream" camera angles are really annoying. What ever happened to "character is plot"? The only reason I can think of is that they couldn't come up with a good script so they decided to distract us with these techniques. Well, let me tell you, it didn't work - I know I saw a bad movie!
If you want to see Johnny Depp in a good movie rent Ed Wood.
