Costner? Huh?

Normally, I never would have bothered with a Costner flick for the rest of my life, but he shocked me. I'm glad I caved in and saw this film, despite Costner's lead role. Probably his best performance ever, going thru so many emotions. I too felt compassion for this serial killer. odd.

And I agree with Jason's review. Demi Moore was so miscast, and so pathetic. She single-han... read more

Mr. Earl Brooks: [about Mr. Smith] Maybe I should drive over there and pick him up.
Marshall: No, just honk. Maybe he'll get killed crossing the street. Save us the mess of doing it.
[Both start laughing. Then, Mr. Brooks honks the horn and Mr. Smith nearly gets hit by a car while crossing]
Mr. Earl Brooks: Almost.

I had my doubts about this movie but I have to hand it to Kevin Costner - he made me believe in Mr. Brooks - a complex character. There were times when I couldn't believe I was actually rooting for him.

Costner's interactions with William Hurt were superb - the two characters have an easy going relationship that shows the intimacy of being together for years.

The story follows a man with a murderous alter ego. Moore will play a tough detective whose devotion to her craft catches the attention and respect of the serial killer she is hunting, which leads to a symbiotic relationship.

Terror Blurbs! Pt. 1 (An Ever-Expanding List) (100 movies items)

"Plot: An upstanding citizen and family man has a terrible secret, he's a serial killer incapable of stopping. Finding an opportunity to escape his baser instincts in a brutish admirer, he spins a complicated web of murder and deceit. Sure, it thinks it's way smarter that it actually is, is overstuffed with plot points, and the editing choices border on ugly at times BUT there is a lot to be enjoyed in this underappreciated psychological thriller. From the meticulous nature of Mr. Brooks' "craft"

Movies I Think Should Be Adapted into TV Series (20 movies items)

"With Dexter gone, how about a new series involving a serial killer? In the movie, Earl Brooks is a wealthy family man with a successful career and a deep dark secret. He has an alter ego who loves murder and mayhem. He frequently attends addiction meetings to keep that side of him under control. Spoiler: We also discover that his daughter has inherited his bloodlust. For a series, what if Earl Brooks is in college and his murderous ways have just started? Going to class, hanging out with frien"
