Movie Review: Mr. Brooks

It's always fun to see a fairly wholesome actor do a dark and nasty role; Costner's performance in Mr. Brooks is no exception. It is a testament to the creators' talents that they managed to make such a sympathetic serial killer that I found myself rooting for him before too long.

William Hurt is genius as Mr. Brooks' alter ego (he's not necessarily more evil, just weird in a different way). Their offside conversations - blended nicely with the things other people present are saying - are very entertaining.

It all ends on a pretty bizarre note as well, which seemed fitting given the rest of the movie. Very satisfying.
