Anybody see the movie "Zodiac"?
Watched it last night. I thought it was excellent. Good acting and very suspenseful. What did you think of it?

1. I thought it was quite good
I don't know if I felt "suspenseful", but it definitely kept my attention, that's for sure. Some of the psychological stuff between the Zodiac suspect and the newspaperman was really intense.

3. The part where the cartoonist is trying to leave
the house of the theatre owner's house and he finds the door locked made the hair on the back of my neck stand out. I thought that was pretty intense. Also, when Zodiac gives the mom a lft and he tells her he has to throw the baby out the window before he kills her is pretty good too.I don't watch a lot of violent movies so maybe I'm a bit more sensitive to that kind of stuff.

2. The scenes when he was in the house, especially when they
went to the basement ...scary stuff. Also, it got me from the very beginning with the young couple in the park. I will never listen to Hurdy Gurdy Man the same way.

4. I liked it a lot
Thought Downey and Gyllenhall were both terrific.
