The Bone Collector
Originally released: 1999
This film convinces about as far as the Montreal locations make a convincing New York. Denzel Washington, confined to a bed and able to move only above the neck, manages to steal the movie from a worryingly Ginger Spice-looking Angelina Jolie. The premise - someone put behind bars by forensic evidence perpetrates a series of murders aimed at the forensic cop - is old hat, and the gruesome demises of various people with whom we are emotionally uninolved becomes less and less relevant. The psych-out between the killer, Jolie and Washington is occasionally gripping. Otherwise, murder can be more fun.
