Long after the fact follow up to the Tarsem Jennifer Lopez story about a psychic going inside the mind of a serial killer. Here the FBI is using a psychic to capture a serial killer who abducts women and then "flatlines" his victims repeatedly before actually killing them. She gets the FBI to the hide out too late and then leaves the service (The fact hat one agent brow beats her by telling her its all her fault doesn't help) A year later the FBI return to ask her help and she reluctantly agrees. Poor serial killer has the feel of a TV soap opera and the visual style of a fancy porn film (I'm not saying it is one just that it feels like the exposition scenes in one). Carefully constructed with everyone and everything laid out exactly as it should be to the extent that there is no life in the proceedings. The performances are adequate at best with several, our lead, falling into the silly side of things. I quickly grew bored with it since it was a film that sided with form over content. I would take a pass if you run across this. One of the weakest films of the year
