Review of Dahmer (2002) by Dana F — 15 Nov 2012

Not nearly as disturbing as it should have been. This movie is "Dahmer Lite". There are some tense moments but this movie barely tipped the iceberg of the atrocities Dahmer committed, and suffers accordingly.

I also think the non-linear narrative did not do it any favors. The main reason to watch this movie is Renner's performance which is fantastic. He brings a true eeriness to the role, even with the limitations of the watered-down story.
