Vivid view into the mind of a serial killer, and moving to see the effect his gene pool has on him.

Strong performance by Don Cheadle and Chiwetel Ejiofor. Other than that, a bit of a run-of-the-mill kind of movie.

The Painted Veil

Moving and tangible drama. Could have done with a bit more pace.

Boring. Top cast suffers from bad direction and lousy script.

How a lie can become someone’s truth. Fascinating story, good casting and excellent performance by Gere and Molina.
