This movie is not bad. Very slow-paced, and arguably not enough of a pay-off, but it's solid enough to watch start-to-finish.
***SPOILERS***
The good part is that the film leads viewers down a long false trail. That had me wondering early on: there are no alternative suspects to the string of murders. It seemed too simple. A-ha, there came a twist.
The bad part was that the twist didn't make a whole lot of sense. Perhaps because the killer is kept hidden so long, their motivation leaves too many question marks. The climactic scene leans heavily on exposition and flashback; sure signs that the story's presentation was weak.
Also, there were so many separate murders that it makes you wonder how the heck this killer got around so much, and why?
Still. 5.1 seems low.
***MILDLY RECOMMENDED***
