Looks like a TV movie

Rating: 5/10 (21 June 2016)

*There are no references to own biography to know why Bloom transformed himself in a sociopath-we don't know about his family or childhood. One only can see that he progresses in his trespasses of the law *He is a type such as the ones portrayed by Jim Carrey in his movies: at times naive looking, smiling often, doing simple things such as watching comedy or watering a flower pot. Can such a personage become a multiple killer? Maybe I am wrong, but it is kind of improbable, though theoretically possible. One reason he does he does is the attraction for Nina Romina and the desire to be likable to her. *The main reason I watched is to get some insights into media inner workings and in this sense the film delivers finely. For example, you learn that the crimes suffered by upper class people have priority in the news. *Not only Bloom lacks empathy but also the top journalist Nina Romina - in a last scene with her we see her congratulating him, after cursorily acknowledging death of his partner. In this sense, they found each other and I think this is a point of the movie - possible desensitizing of media workers.
