Technically speaking, this is an exceptional film. The acting and direction are superb. However, I question just WHO the movie is intended for? It's an incredibly realistic and violent tale of the exploits of a merciless serial killer--showing him kill people brutally (by repeated stabbings or stranglings). This brutality would tend to turn off many. This tended to turn me off, as it was really hard to care about anyone in the movie and those I felt anything for were usually killed sooner or later. Some may enjoy this voyeuristic outlet, but I sure didn't. It reminded me of a better made and less over-the-top version of Natural Born Killers.
