Such a great cast... Such a great waste...

Rating: 5/10 (23 July 2008)

I came to see this movie with great expectations, after all it was a David Fincher's movie with an unbelievable cast! I was so disappointed...
The actors play their roles wonderfully! Jake Gyllenhaal, Mark Ruffalo and specially Robert Downey Jr. But there is no character development.
But where Zodiac fails the most is in capturing the viewer. The movie is too long, and the story is told in a way that it won't make you hold on to your chair hoping to see the case solved, as any good detective story will. Most of the public will hope the case is solved so they can stop watching the movie as soon as possible, because unfortunately, it's boring! It isn't exciting or troubling as a thriller should be...
This movie had the potential of being really good, it's unfortunate that it fails so much!
