Cemitério

I have broken foot and the remote fell to the ground so I had to watch it all.

Some of the acting super bad. I couldn't make out 50 cents lines most of the time. High school plays have better actors.

The editing was the worst part. The back and forth to the memoirs was so terrible I couldn't tell on times what was going on.

The echo in the sound sounded like they used the same mics from porn movies (yes I watch porn) I am flabbergasted of how bad this was. The only ok thing in the movie was Mel Gibson and not even him being on the movie could've make it a bit good.

I feel like I watched a low budget movie. Ewww.

Van Holt is the main actor in this a detective looking for a serial killer. Mel Gibson is a profiler with the FBI he has about 15 minutes and 50 Cent is police chief also 15 minutes.

The whole thing seems like it was written to be a pilot for a TV show, the entire thing looks like one also, but instead it was made a movie, it happens a lot in the industry. As such some subplots are rushed, some things are unresolved etc.

It's nice to see Mel Gibson he is obviously the best acting talent in this, quite possibly ad libbing his lines because his character is the only interesting one.

It plays out more like one of those crime documentaries, we are just going through the motions.

The movie basically doesn't have what can be called an ending, it's like a first episode of a miniseries, which is probably the most disappointing thing about it. Some things do get resolved but they almost happen off screen and explain with a couple of lines of dialogue so the movie has some cohesion.

I live in Albuquerque and have followed and researched this particular case pretty closely with all available evidence and theories from other researchers and people.

This movie is nothing more than a imaginary tale developed by a Hollywood up and coming that wants to debut his craft.

The beginning, or the discovery of the crime scene was legitimate. It was a woman walking her dog beside an up subdivision at which the dog uncovers a human bone(femur bone) and the dogs owner who was a nurse was able to identify it as human and alert the authorities.

The remains of 11 women and a fetus were discovered buried in shallow graves in a certain area of the west mesa area of Albuquerque NM.

Something that was left out that was pretty important to the case was how the review of satellite images of the particular area of the west mesa between the the year of 2004 to 2009 showed the appearance of tire tracks and what appeared to be graves on the very lot of land that these bodies were discovered at in 2009. The interesting part is how the tracks increased in length off the desert dirt road and the number of supposed graves grew from one set of satellite images to the next. That development was conveniently left out of the movie which is sad.

Furthermore the actual suspects in the case were completely different than those portrayed in the movie as well as the events and characters that led to the narrowing down to the final suspects.

So this movie is pretty much a Hollywood caricature of what really happened in the high desert New Mexico city of Albuquerque. And it's unfortunate because it is basically a fictional exploitation of the victims of the West Mesa Bone Collector and their demise.

This could have been a really good film as the plot was based on a true story but unfortunately, it failed on account of the awful 50cent has-been mumbling through his lines as if he was drunk and the irritating Ortega with his horrible coarse and irritating voice. Acting was sub-standard, even Mel's acting (sorry Mel)... and casting the beautiful Kesia (Puerto Rican) as the sister of a white American just didn't stand true. The whole film seemed so empty and weak. Ignore the fake 10/10 reviews and me giving it a 3 is being kind. Maybe a 1 or 2. Anyways, if I were you, knowing what I know, I wouldn't waste my time with this!

Was Mel Gibson's inspiration that one mugshot of Nick Nolte looking completely insane in a Hawaiian shirt and frizzed-out psycho hair? Oh, but it gets better (worse?) when Mel goes into action Sad Max mode and tries to run ten feet in one scene. Yeah, that's just a whole lot of booze belly coming at us.

50 Cent is woefully miscast as the gruff police chief who I can only assume is "one day away from retirement" or "too old for this stuff" or any number of tropes.

Also, I am not entirely sure what the resolution to anything is - which makes the entire point of the movie moot. That is because it isn't played as a respectful representation of the true crimes it was exploiting...I mean, based off of.

Nearly every character has to explain in the most infantile or corny way what serial killers are, what this police procedure is, what they are doing and why. It all comes across as discount Criminal Minds/CSI filler.

Easily skippable nonsense.
