Mr. Brooks (DVD, 2009, Checkpoint; Sensormatic; Widescreen; Lenticular Faceplate)

I don't remember what compelled me to buy this film but I'm happy I did it. Kevin Costner can, in my opinion, be very good (Dances with Wolves, The Open Range, Bull Durham, For Love of the Game) or very bad (Waterworld, The Postman)and a whole lot of places in between. This performance is definitely on the upside. He plays a respectable sociopath whom you never really come to dislike and in the end actually pull for, while condeming his actions. William Hurt is excellent as his alter-ego and Demi Moore delivers as a troubled cop. The story is moving and fascinating and the demons are on display in a very real sense, i.e. they are believable and one can see one falling into the trap, to a degree, not to the extent of killing but in less corrupt but very nasty ways.
