Description
Keanu Reeves stars in The Watcher - an action-packed, "superbly crafted thriller this zooms along like a sinister video strategy of hunter and prey!" (Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper and the Movies) Afterwards years of pursuing psychotic killers in Los Angeles, FBI agent Joel Campbell (James Spader) wants out. And now his nemesis, serial killer David Allen Griffin (Reeves), has tracked him all the way to Chicago just to torment him. Before every murder, Griffin sends Campbell a photograph of his designed victim and dares him to locate her before he strikes again. Now, together with each tick of the clock, and amidst pulse-pounding action, this stone-cold killer turns up the heat. Co-starring Academy Prize-winner Marisa Tomei, this strategy of cat and mouse will have you gasping for breath from its first terrifying frame until its final explosive conclusion!
Customer Reviews
Customer rating is 3 of 5  The Watcher is worth Watching   2010-03-30
By Elizabeth
James Spader plays a FBI agent on medical leave who has recently moved to Chicago after his mistress is killed in California by a psychopathic serial killer portrayed by Keanu Reeves; unfortunately for Campbell, the psychopath has developed some type of bizarre attachment and imaged relationship with him and follows him to Chicago in order continue his torment and killing spree; Keanu's character terrorizes Spader with photos of women that he has targeted and plans on killing while Spader and the other FBI agents try to find the women before Reeves kills them off; the action and chase scenes are suspenseful and the storyline is interesting and well acted by both Spader and Reeves; Keanu does have some creepy funny lines and moments in this film, he is not terrible in this film and the movie is worth seeing.
Customer rating is 3 of 5  Would not watch it again   2010-01-12
By DV6740 (New Jersey, USA)
Some parts of the film were great, other parts not so great, and the acting was bland for the most part. Keanu Reeves is the most bland and boring of all. James Spader does a decent job, with what he has to work with. The dialogue and delivery is often stiff and unnatural.

I had a good laugh in the beginning watching Keanu Reeves' character doing some lame dance along to a dance version of Rob Zombie's Dragula. That was hysterical. They brought Zombie back later with "How to Make a Monster" and I guess that was an attempt to help emphasize some horrific, monster-like quality of Reeves' character which didn't really exist. His portrayal of a serial killer was pretty comical. I didn't buy it. Maybe it would have helped if there had been more character development or back story.

As for the production, it's pretty good. The camera work is good, action is good, excellent car chase scene, and some great effects. And the soundrack was good. The music and scoring worked well with the film and was practically invisible throughout, which is the way it should be.

In all The Watcher wasn't a super bad film, just could have been improved upon. I don't know if I'll watch it again. Maybe I will give it a second chance.
Customer rating is 2 of 5  Good sound track-poor suspense and acting   2010-01-07
By Matthew O. Jones (Eugene Ore USA)
Someone reccomended this to me cause I like scary suspense movies. A good suspense movie takes an art of proper speeding and slowing down the action in conjunction with the visual effects and things like that. Pretty much not done real well her. Acting not too good either. Does have a pretty good 5.1 track for those with home theatre.
