Zodiac and why I screamed.
Okay. After drama in the home subsiding over me watching the violent killings in Zodiac, I finally finished watching it today.
Here're a few short thoughts, short because I'm frustrated. The acting was great. Robert Downey Jr. and Jake Gyllenhaal...and Mark Ruffalo. I could feel the sparks flying off the screen when all of the above got into arguments. The directing/shooting? Wonderful. Dead-on impression of the sixties and seventies.
Wanna know what made me scream? No, not the killings. Not the tense moments. THE ENDING. I wanted to CHUCK something at the dagum SCREEEEEEEN. The guy DIED before they could ARREST him? I mean holy CRAAAAAAP. I freaking LOATHE movies with endings like that.
All in all, annoyances with the true story plot aside, an okay film. Rates higher on my list than Vantage Point, slightly lower than Eagle Eye.
Also, much thanks to Bella for my icons. 8D I must refrain from talking about them like they're my friends. ...but oh do I want to.
...and another thing, I talk about Robert Downey Jr. alot. ...that's kinda weird. Ah well.
