This tries so hard to be every good thriller ever made wrapped into 1 and the acting is HORRENDOUS. The flashbacks are laughable. A copy cat serial killer is on the loose and a new pretty detective is partnered with an older black detective who lost his partner in a gruesome way and he's now jaded. The line "she's not ready" just so typical. It rips off Seven, Silence of the Lambs, copycat and it does it horribly. It's just bad. Really bad. Even John Malkovich couldn't save this movie. Skip this one. I watched it for free and I feel like I got ripped off, so save yourself the $ and your time. It's THAT bad.
