Zodiac
This is a really good movie; it approaches the real life story of the San Francisco bay serial killer ‘Zodiac’ in a very mature and intriguing way, delivering a real sense of frustration that the case cannot be brought to a close. It is interesting to see how limited the investigative process is due to a lack of the information technology that we take for granted in the 21st century. Zodiac is a long film, but it is worth sticking with. I particularly liked the character of Robert Graysmith, played by Jake Gyllenhaal; his enthusiasm and determination was very admirable even if some of its consequences were not so great.
