Zodiac

Zodiac was a good movie that suffered from its own length. The movie wanted to make the suspense that it was banking on a hell of a lot longer than it needed. I still believe that it was well done, with a very interesting story, some great acting(especially at the hands of Robert Downey Jr.), and some wonderful cinematography.
The story of Zodiac is about an unsolved string of murders in California. It follows the story of the detective assigned to the murders Marc Ruffalo, a reporter for the newspaper Robert Downey Jr., and the cartoonist obsessed with solving the puzzle of the killer Jake Gyllenhaal.
Like I said the movie was very good. If it would have been edited more efficiently I would have probably given it a perfect review. However; I give it four stars.

Yeah, the only thing that could have made this movie any better would have been giant robots. With giant robots in a movie, you don't even need a plot anymore, if I understand correctly!
More giant robots, relly!!!
My wife and I saw this movie when it was first released. I'm not sure if I can say that a movie that I "fell asleep" on was a good movie. I was intrigued by the pace, the actors, the recreation of Northern Cali and everything else. But we both fell asleep! I have to agree with you, this film was too damn long. What irritates me, is that I know I missed out on a good flick, but that's ok, I have it on DVD, and whenever I have about 4 or 5 hours to spare, I'll throw it in and give it another spin.
Off subject, but couldn't they choose some shorter movie titles to type in these ridiculous verification boxes down below? Just a thought.
Yeah I totally agree with the shorter verifications.
This movie was very good but you stated the biggest problem: too long. I thought this film had a great first half and a decent second half. Good acting, good (true) basis, and sometimes a little creepy.
After seeing this movie, I decided that even if someone is pointing a gun at me, I will not tie up myself or my friends. That was a truly sickening situation. I'd rather just take a bullet. Good review!
Ahhh... nice to see the famous horror king is back in action. Welcome back sir.
i loved the movie as well, and its not as long as eeyone mae it seem, wn i rented the movi everyon said it was 3 1/2 hours! its only 2 1/2! thats not long...people dont complain if a movie is 2hours but ad that extra 30 and everyone goes insne!
that shows how uch more the ameican audience is...
but anyway getting off topic, this was a really great movie, with a fantastic cast!
I am not saying the movie is too long because of the amount of time it consumed. I have no problem with long movies, Braveheart is one of my favorite all time movies. I am saying that the movie had scenes that were too drawn out for the movies own good. All it needed was better editing.
