Sea of Love

Day 40 - 2/9/09 - Movie #39

BEFORE: Well, Comic-Con is over, and Valentine's Day is coming up, so I'm going to line up some movies about love and romance.

THE PLOT: A New York detective investigates a case of a serial killer who finds the victims through the lonely hearts column in newspapers.

AFTER: I liked the twists and turns in this one, the way that it SUBTLY leads you into thinking Ellen Barkin's character might be the killer. Sublety is something that most thrillers don't have. And Al Pacino is great as usual. Always good to see character actors like John Spencer and William Hickey too.

RATING: 6 out of 10 personal ads
