Review of Suspect Zero (2004) by Peter P — 12 Feb 2011

With a cast of this calibar and the overall plot synopsis, I have to consider this a disappointment. This is no fault of the actors, who all do a pretty good job. Moss is slightly underwhelming, but Kingsley is very good as almost always.

The direction is solid, and the script is average, but the story is what fails the film. It starts out very solidly, but just sort of looses itself, and your left to watch it flounder around in its lack of backbone for the last hour.

There is really no core to the film. No strong theme or cohesive plot details. It seems like a bunch of seperately filmed scenes that were just glued together at the end. All that said, it is not an unenjoyable watch.

Has just enough to make it marginally interesting. But the potential of the story coupled with such a strong core of actors could have made this a very good movie. As it sits now, its a light shade better than mediocre.
