The idea of a killer mindlessly mowing down dozens of innocent citizens is certainly more believable than ever before.
Someone knows that a Baltimore landfill is going to echo with the cries of hungry seagulls. The shootouts are expertly choreographed, and the suspense is often very strong.
But the screenplay co-written by director Damian Szifron and newcomer Jonathan Wakeman cannot compete with or compare to “The Silence of the Lambs,” a film “To Catch a Killer” is obviously inspired by in large part. When Eleanor figures out that one of the contractors she and Lammark questioned lied about the subcontractors he uses on his jobs, she helps close the circle on the killer.
But the story and the direction by Buenos Aires-born Szifron are not up to the standards of author Thomas Harris and /or Academy Award-winning director Jonathan Demme. “To Catch a Killer” is compelling to a point, although Lammark and Eleanor do something that one might find entirely stupid and careless near the end. English character actor Ralph Ineson adds layers to a very thinly-written role. Mendelsohn , who’s usually cast as the heavy, is refreshing as an ailing good guy.
