Ratings and reviews

Watched this one quite a lot of years ago, perhaps not long after its release in 1999. Went searching for it again last night, as I find Denzel a pretty fine actor. Enjoyed it immensely all over again. Angelina's character, initially, is a bit dorky, but it then grows with a bit more complexity and merit as the movie progresses. Overall supporting cast is a nice mix. QL lends a nice air of empathy and sincere kindness in her role. Really enjoyed the work done by the research crew to rebuild old NYC history and to then play it out in what I felt was a believable way on the screen.

Haven't watched this in so many years, but caught it playing on TV, and for me, I think it holds up. The story is quite good, and the serial killer is truly sadistic. All in all, I would like to watch it again sooner than later.

Bone Collector is a great intense movie I remember seeing on VHS when it first came out now years later I bought it on Blu ray and the picture quality this is excellent
