Rookie cop Megan Turner orders a burglar to drop his gun. He whirls to shoot. Too late. Turner fires, killing him instantly. When someone lifts the assailant's gun from the crime scene, the police hold Turner accountable for killing an unarmed man. That same someone carves Turner's name into the bullets and uses them in a series of murders. Turner teams up with detective Nick Mann to clear her name and catch the killer. But she is drawn into a deadly game of wits with a psychopath who's always one step ahead… and much closer than she thinks!

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

A genre thriller made with intelligence. The director understands the difference between suspense and shock — and chooses the former.

Worth watching for the atmosphere and structure. The finale may not please everyone — but the road there is worth the time.

For those who like films that keep them in a state of uncertainty until the end.

Director: Kathryn Bigelow

Viewing atmosphere: Late at night when you can give yourself fully to the film. Not as background — fully present.
