6/10
THERE ARE SOME EVIL PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD

Warning: Spoilers
"Blue Caprice" is a docu-drama about the DC sniper. It starts with a teen boy in the Caribbean and goes from there. He meets up in the US with his paranoid father/uncle/guy who has a grudge against the system that separates him from his children. He uses the boy to enact revenge.

The film doesn't have a lot of action. It is mostly a drama, a means to provide some closure for those who ask "why?" The killing scenes are not overly graphic and in many cases they jump over them as well as skip scenes such as the actual arrest and taking them into custody.

The acting was good although Lee (Tequan Richmond) didn't have a lot of lines and seemed to have lost his island accent by the end of the film. I found the film interesting as a biography of the killers, but overall lacking in shear entertainment value. The title is clever when you think about it literally (blue=sad, caprice=impulsive) and not a car.

Parental Guidance: F-bomb. No sex or nudity.
