Morgan Freeman brings his top-notch class to this brilliant thriller. Recommended.

This is more than just an ordinary thriller because of its several strengths such as plot, story, acting and characters which I think are much more interesting and reasonable when compared to most contemporary suspense films in general. Besides, the film is also supported by several well-known stars such as Morgan Freeman and Ashley Judd. Scene after scene was presented without exaggeration, all delivered beautifully at an exact composition. The film, which is an adaptation of James Patterson’s novel and directed by Gary Fleder is really worth watching because it is able to maintain the great thriller elements with its decent complexities without having to baffle the audience. Gary Fleder could somehow build up the film tension while still preserving the audience curiosity cleverly though some might see resemblances with se7en, The Bone Collector and even the great Silence of the Lambs. Freeman and Judd really show the perfect chemistry.

A disappointingly straight sophomore effort from Gary Fleder (Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead), based on the bestseller by prolific hack James Patterson. Forensic psychologist Morgan Freeman is on the trail of "Casanova" — a psycho who "collects" women and kills the ones who displease him. Freeman hurries to North Carolina to take the case after his own niece (Gina Rivera) disappears; he also gets help from kickboxing doctor Ashley Judd, who escaped the killer's lair. Fleder does a solid, workmanlike job, and the always dependable Freeman and Judd add some class, but this is essentially an undistinguished serial-killer entry with a synthetic twist and some red-herring casting choices (former screen psychos Alex McArthur, of Rampage, and Brian…

A little slow in parts, but ultimately a great thriller with a daring twist.
