30 minutes in, and I already dislike the copper


I've got no idea who is guilty of what, but the inverstigator seems like a total douche!

You mean 30 minutes in and you dislike the reddish coloured metal material ;)

I've seen various movies showing it, and mostly it's fine. Sure, for the most part they are typecast as pipes or bullets, but in this I think they got the casting completely wrong... which is really bad considering it's got a relatively low melting point and can be easily cast into any shape you want!

I thought she was one of a number of great female characters in the film, but I did think the incessant carrying of the coffee cup got a bit much.🐭

Ahh... the rat returns :D

How goes thing mr scary rodent?

I guess she ended up ok. I guess when you 'know' that he's not guilty and the investigation goes down the road of 'assume he's guilty', but even Rhonda Boney said to Gilpin that they had to get proof not just charge him for the hell of it.

Anyway - it was an okay film if you didn't dig into it to far, but pretty bad as deeper thinking film.

Hi there SP.

As mentioned I do really like this film. My only real issue with it is the apparent haste with which the cops (excluding Boney) want to give Amy the benefit of the doubt at the end with regards to Desi etc. I know it's a 150 minute film, but yes they didn't appear to want to

... dig into it to far ...
which didn't ring true to me.🐭
