I was pleased to see this make many critics' best of decade lists; a taut, intelligent film brilliantly performed and directed. As an examination of man's obsession with unsolved murder and the connected puzzles it cannot be matched. |

A very absorbing and engrossing film. David Fincher continues to impress - even at 2 1/2 hours I was never bored. Whether you know about the Zodiac case or not, the film puts it all in focus and I, for one, liked it. |

The movie gives us a believable case as to who the Zodiac really was. For this I give it props. I can't take it too seriosly though, because it's not proven fact. No one will probably ever know who it was. |

Zodiac |
|
Zodiac is a well told true story that is just tremendous on every level. The film is well crafted with wonderful direction by David Fincher and a great screenplay by James Vanderbilt, based on Robert Graysmiths (Gyllenhaals Character) bestseller, and a cast that does a slendid job. Jake Gyllenhaal is a wonderful actor and his performance here shows just why, he is outstanding. Robert Downey Jr., Mark Ruffalo, Anthony Edwards, John Carroll Lynch and Charles Fleischer are all outstanding just the same. This film grabs your attention and doesn't let go, even at running over two and a half hours. The Murder scenes are chilling. The period detail is wonderful and the score is soaring. A truely great film. Quite possibly Finchers best film. |

Meh. |

Actually, I've to disagree with inkwellvenom. Is not spectacular at all. David F... I'm used to see good visuals (his own style) and more suspense. This was the best to explore that phase, more than ever. And.. he kind of relax in this flick, and pushes automatic pilot to create a movie that is descent, but nothing less should be expected from him. |

This is the Zodiac Speaking |
|
Zodiac is the newest film by masterful director, David Fincher, about the obsessive case of the Zodiac murderer. The film stars Mark Ruffalo and Jake Gyllenhaal, as a cop and a journalist who both over time obsess over the untraceable case, concerning a possible of thirty-seven supposed killings.
Zodiac contains three parts, or acts. In act 1 it tells the story of the Zodiac killer, and the individual reactions of cartoonist, Robert Graysmith, played by Jake Gyllenhaal; alcoholic journalist, Paul Avery, played by brilliant Robert Downey Jr.; and co-lead detective, Inspector David Toschi. Each of these people react in different ways, one way being the necessity to find how who this killer is, and what his codes mean, and others which involve going to the pub and having n exotic blue dri... |
