Is this really worth of the Top 250?

Rating: 5/10 (13 June 2007)

I saw this film recently without seeing any critical reviews or any vibe on here. Bearing in mind some of Fincher's previous work I was a bit disappointed with the film. I was somewhat surprised therefore to see it sitting proudly in the Top 250.
The film follows the real life case of the serial killer labelled Zodiac who terrorised the San Fancisco area with a series of murders in the age of flower power. The main focus on the film is the investigation of the murders and I found the thick end of 3 hours a bit on the long side. Anyway it's clearly the case that lots of people enjoyed the film, so you'll need to check it out yourselves. I'll be watching it again when it's on TV to see if there's more to the film than I saw on my first viewing.
