Taking Lives (2004)

Cast: Angelina Jolie (Illeana), Ethan Hawke (Costa), Kiefer Sutherland (Hart), Gena Rowlands (Mrs. Asher)
For complete cast info, see IMDb's Taking Lives page.

Somehow, I thought this would be a thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat (and perhaps had me hiding behind my eyes at times). It wasn't really that kind of movie. In spite of the great cast, Taking Lives only manages to achieve creepy, not amazing thriller or great suspense movie...

I didn't read the book, so perhaps this would seem more interesting if you had read it. Then again, it might just be even more disappointing in that case.

Not a bad idea to rent it, but don't have high expectations to be scared to turn out the lights or anything.

Grade: C+
