An FBI agent with a checkered past is on the hunt for what he thinks is a serial killer (Thomas Mackelway played by Aaron Eckhart). The twist is that this serial killer (Benjamin O'Ryan played by Ben Kingsley) is killing OTHER serial killers. And he is very smart, so smart that he identifies serial killers who escape identification by the FBI. And he is taunting Agent Mackelway, leaving clues at each one of the murders he commits. Mackelway's past comes back to haunt him (he kidnapped a suspect in Mexico and brought him back to the US where he was subsequently released because of the illegal capture).
The movie suffers a bit from pacing, but the acting Eckhart and Kingsley is excellent. The movie has an interesting twist at the end which will keep you guessing (unless you are clairvoyant).
