'Zodiac' opens this Friday, March 2nd
It looks to be good

I have to say this was one of those really good films, IMO that leave you going "I want more" after 2 hours and 36 minutes, it's up there film wise in my top 10 and Jake's performance is a good one.

Though I might be a tad biased, comparing it to all the other films out there from book to film I thought that this version of the Zodiac Killer events was very accurate in corresponding with Robert Greysmith's novels.

I definately agree with your review Pixie Queen!!! I haven't read the book myself but I thought that the movie was well directed and the acting impeccable especially for Jake As the new moderator of the board I've decided to write little movie reviews of his movies. I'll keep them short though as to not contain spoilers! Ya'll can tell me what you think and if you agree or not!!!!

The movie “Zodiac” could be considered a time period piece about a serial killer in the late 1960s through the 1970s. Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Mark Ruffalo, Anthony Edwards and Robert Downey Jr, the ensemble cast investigates the killings covering over four years. The movie is less about the Zodiac himself and more about each character’s obsession in finding the killer, especially more so Robert Graysmith (Gyllenhaal). The investigation starts out innocently, and then turns into a life long goal for Graysmith to where he eventually draws away family and friends following minute events that might lead him to the killer.

The movie is quite long, two and a half hours, but is worth sitting through. Rather than being an action suspense thriller, it is more of a detective/investigative thriller including more talk than action. It is difficult at times to follow the evidence and pieces, but the events follow through in the end rounding itself out.

Has anyone read the book yet? I'm kinda interested. I thought Robert Downing Jr. did a great job!

There was an article in this months newsweek about how the movie zodiac prompted to open the cold case documents of the actual zodiac killer. The article said that they are trying to use stamps on the letter to get the dna sample to determine for sure who the killer actually was. interesting, huh?

Zodiac will be out on dvd July 27th, 2007

Zodiac Widescreen edition and Director's Cut edition available for purchase see the Jake Gyllenhaal store for more details.

chasingthefrog.com does an interesting compare and contrast of Zodiac Movie Vs. Zodiac Killer true story.

for an update on this story... still puzzled

I always find interesting things whenever I do a google search on this movie! It's crazy people are still so fascinated and intrigued to keep searching articles and information on this case!

Amazing what the internet can do:

"[b]Collected for nearly a decade at a unique online repository for information
about the case, Zodiackiller.com, the reports -- from Napa, Vallejo, and
Solano County police and sheriff departments -- reveal that before they were
murdered, sometimes within days or weeks, each of the Zodiac's four known or
suspected female victims had broken off a relationship or rebuffed the
advances of a male admirer in favor of another male partner, and each breakup
involved public arguments or witnessed threats.What's more, in the three murders involving male-female couples, the female
victim was the "older woman" in either her former or current relationship.[/b]"

I didn't realize this but there was another movie called 'The Zodiac' made in 2005 starring Justin Chambers, Robin TUnney, and Rory Culkin.

imdb.com synopsis:
"THE ZODIAC takes a different look at the famous Zodiac Killer case from other screen treatments of the murders. More than a simple crime story, the film is an emotional thriller focusing on the murders' impact on victims, their families and the wider community. The film follows a police detective and his son who become obsessed with the murders and endanger their family in the process."

I personally think Jake's version is probably better from the looks of it, but I might be biased. This is one of my favorite Jake movies...

Interesting look at films concentrating on different 'Social Anxieties' of the past decadementions Zodiac.

1. "Almost Famous” (2000)
2. "Minority Report” (2002)
3. "No Country For Old Men” (2007)
4. "Memento” (2000)
5. "Children of Men” (2006) —
6. "Lord of the Rings” trilogy (2001-03)
7. "The Dark Knight” (2008)
8. "Zodiac” (2007) — Speaking of Lumet, David Fincher channeled both the "Dog Day Afternoon” master and Alan J. Pakula’s "All the President’s Men” in this epic telling of the Zodiac Killer case, in which a series of murders terrorized the San Francisco area in the 1960s and 1970s, and its perpetrator was never conclusively identified or brought to justice. "Zodiac” follows obsessed reporter Robert Graysmith (Jake Gyllenhaal) and a legendary detective (Mark Ruffalo) as their obsessions with the crimes come to define them. Fincher’s zeal in capturing the mind-set that makes great journalists and police officers comes to define "Zodiac” itself.
9. "Pan’s Labyrinth” (2006) 10. "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” (2004)
