Suspect Zero (Widescreen Edition) [DVD]

Wish it ran longer. Very interesting, well written, directed and filmed. Expounds on a previously used story premise. Don't get up for snacks or a drink, you'll miss important details.

If you have ever wondered what MK ULTRA by the military was all about then this is the movie for you!

Why does Kingsley portray so many saints and psychos? Because he’s so good at it. The supporting cast tries super hard, but their half of the script is as bad as made-for-tv. Was it the scriptwriter or exec producer that let them down? Still, this one is worth a watch. Then catch Third Eye Spies. Same topic in a documentary format.Peace. Out.

Excellent psychological thriller / serial killer movie, with a subplot about ESP (here referred to as "remote viewing").I admit I disliked this movie for the 1st 45 minutes because there were too many disjointed and enigmatic scenes and disjointed visions, and not much was making sense. But at around the 45-minute mark, the whole movie settled into place, hit a groove, and the film became REALLY interesting.Aaron Eckhart gives an emotionally gripping performance as a disgraced FBI agent with a strange past, who is hunting a serial killer. Ben Kingsley plays a mysterious figure with his own strange past, who may or may not be involved in some way. Their paths collide along with a whole cast of other characters and the plot careens through twists and turns toward an intense, gut-wrenching conclusion.Be warned that although the movie is not graphically violent, the crimes described or implied are very gruesome and constitute the nadir of humanity's evil. The movie makes good use of a few well-placed scenes which coax the imagination to flirt with some very dark places.The musical score as well as the landscape photography (filmed in New Mexico) effectively create an atmosphere of suspense and dread. The strength of the film though, lies primarily in the humanity of its main characters, in their struggles and pains. This is not a cheap suspense thriller with endless action, but is a more subtle, psychological puzzle with intense moments along the way. Worthy of a repeat view for sure.

I found interest in this movie as my son and I have practiced remote viewing for quite some time. I know the history of RV in the U.S. as well. The movie did a great job of filling the viewer in on some of that history which helps people gearing of it for the first time. The movie has good action, suspense and and thrilling moments. What I had issue with was the fanatical and frantic manner in which they depicted him doing his RV sessions. I get that criminal profilers can be jacked up mentally at times, but I felt they over played it like he had to be on the side of mental instability to be a remote viewer which is far from the truth. Other than that I enjoyed this movie very much.

Ben Kingsley shines in this film as a psychotic mystic. Aaron Elkhart is an FBI officer in charge of solving a serial killer. 5he film is cyclical and at first I wondered what this was all about. The film has a mystical quality anoutbit that may deter peopleTom, played by Eckhart is an FBI officer receiving comm7nication of all shorts from an 7nknown. We know wh9 itbis. An old FBI agent unable to solve serial k8ller cases when he was actively working, is do8ng it behind the scene and Is leaving clues with Tom. Tom has some mystic background but has difficulty putting everything 5ogether. At 5imes the theme music and the storyline comes close to creepy, but han* in there. For those who do. It believe. This film may not be for you.Recommended. prisrob 08-18-18

"Suspect Zero" is not perfect, but in the end, it was a satisfying entertainment experience. Aaron Eckhart and Ben Kingsley turn in intense performances that give the storyline some extra zing. I am not quite sure what Carrie-Anne Moss's character added to the film, but she played it well and the character didn't detract from the story either. There were several unexpected twists that had me guessing as to what was actually going on. Some have been critical of this confusion and ambiguity, but I interpreted it as a realistic portrayal of what a serial killer hunt must feel like. All the loose ends were tied in a semi-predictable, but still dramatic ending. I can't say any more about the plot without compromising its surprises, but it is worth watching.

A transient with a history of mental illness, Ben Kingsley confronts his victims with their crimes before killing them and covering their bodies with cryptic clues. FBI agent Aaron Eckhart is confused – he doesn’t realise he’s being baited by a gifted headcase who’s killing serial killers. Strikingly set in the Arizona and New Mexico scrublands, a curious thriller that’s stronger on atmospheric mystery than feasible conspiracy. Still, Kingsley’s always worth watching when he’s in this unforgiving mood – his character in Night Hunter (aka Nomis) could be a relative of the guy here, though neither of them would approve of his crooked Russian cop in Brad Anderson’s TransSiberian.

This is about a cop whose after a serial killer ,suspect ,thinks he,s an FBI agent (his he real or fantasist) , its a made for tv film ,after 9pm, theres one sexual scene may upset some people ,rest is suggestive!! l,d say 3*s for made for tv is fair rating , (if not for some scenes it could be afternoon film) not much happens.

Ben Kingsley carries this film, he is fantastic in it. Could have been a great film.

Good idea, fabulous cast. Lousy execution with cast & crew appearing to be going through the motions. Whole package feels like it is unravelling as film progresses. Good example of how NOT to achieve a successful production.

Decent idea but poorly executed for the most part. Casting was er.... puzzling.Passes a little time nonetheless.
