My Childhood Shades Collection

I just found out that I had seen this movie and was impressed.

At that time, I was a good teenager who didn't have a lot of education in horror movies, and I didn't watch Silence of the Lambs, The Seven Deadly Sins, etc., so the setting of this movie was still very fresh to me.

Only now I see that the male and female protagonists are Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie. No wonder the male protagonist, who is paralyzed and has only fingers to move but his brain is running fast, is so realistic and attractive.

At that time, Julie was not yet a queen, but she could see her final growth.

The case is also quite curious. The setting of serial perverted killers was still very new at that time, but now I have watched many seasons of "Criminal Minds" and said that it is nothing more than that.

Maybe the only flaw is the murderer with super IQ, but finally his IQ went offline.

As a new type of suspense film, it is still worth watching.

    Typical Hollywood adaptation: Lincoln Rhyme loses his madness and arrogance; Sachs is still beautiful, but self-destruction seems to be getting farther and farther away from her; as for the bone collectors... poor guy, more sympathetic than dumb ... oh yes, and Thomas, who can tell me when that smart lad was replaced by a big, fat brunette?

    The arrogant high-IQ killer was finally dealt with by the disabled. Apart from appearing to kill Rem at the end, there was basically no foreshadowing that the killer was him, although he still appeared beside Rem frequently. So, not good enough.

The Bone Collector quotes

  • Lincoln Rhyme: Two things. First, you did a hell of a job locating the evidence. There's no question the perp knows forensics.

    [pause]

    Lincoln Rhyme: Now, as for the other thing... the... you know, the victim's hands, well, maybe, uh... maybe it was too much to handle, so we'll just forget it.

    Amelia: Is that your version of an apology?

    Lincoln Rhyme: An apology? Is that why you came over here?

    Amelia: You really are a piece of work.

    Lincoln Rhyme: Well, aren't we a pair?... I think you're terrific.

  • Lincoln Rhyme: Whatever happened to your father doesn't mean it's gonna happen to you. You're a great cop. You'd make a terrific detective. It's a gift. Don't throw it away.
