The Blind Side/Saving Mr. Banks director John Lee Hancock ventures into Se7en territory with this dark crime thriller that casts Denzel Washington and Rami Malek as a pair of ’90s LA cops on the trail of taunting, creepy loner Jared Leto, who’s the prime suspect in a string of grisly murders. Or, as wags have been quick to quip: Malcolm X and Freddie Mercury set out to collar The Joker.
Reviews have been mixed. As the Boston Globe‘s critic put it: “The movie’s a watchable affair for most of the running time, not so much subverting cliches of the serial-killer genre as keeping the audiences in suspense as to how, if and when those cliches will be observed.”
