Duff ending but better than a lot of 90s whodunnits - The Bone Collector review by AER
Remember when films like these came out every week at the cinema? I think Denzel Washington is about the only actor that still fronts films like this on this scale. This serial killer film was had an early leading role for Angelina Jolie>>.. and she is pretty good in this up until the crap ending where the murderer is revealed and feels compelled to share his masterplan before the good guys rescue whoever is in peril. Denzel Washington plays a crippled forensic investigator who only has use of two fingers and his head after an accident.... A Jolie is his rookie partner who scours murder sites for clues... The killer is dismembering and stealing bones from his victims whilst taunting DW & AJ with fiendish clues... Seven this ain't but it's a lot better than some of the other films released around the same time that trod similar streets.
