Not particularly brilliant

Rating: 6/10 (24 April 2011)

This was a veridical case so they say. It's more the story of the investigation of several murders done by a psychopath serial killer than a thriller about the murders themselves. After police having given up the investigation and closed the case without getting any solid evidence that would allow them to get to the murderer, a newspaper cartoonist becomes obsessed with the case and starts an investigation on his own account. This is the main feature of the movie sometimes a bit thrilling but most of the time rather dull and monotonous like a not very exciting investigation documentary report. I must confess I almost fell asleep a few times during it. A not exactly bad but not particularly brilliant movie
