The Fast & Furious franchise is weird… how many other movies do you know where main characters disappear only to reappear in the next movie? Well, one could argue that the real main characters aren’t the actors but the cars. Or one could say that it doesn’t matter because it’s not like any of the characters have developed over the course of six movies. So what is this bunch of street-racing LA punks up to this time?

Based on the novel “The Hypnotist” by Lars Kepler, this movie is the latest in a long line of Scandinavian thrillers. Apparently director Lasse Hallström and writer Paolo Vacirca cut some storylines that were in the book because it was too much to cram into one movie. Having never read the book, I can’t tell you if their choices had an impact on the story or not but most of all this is about a detective trying to solve a grisly family murder.

Is it just me or is it completely ridiculous to make a sequel for a movie called “The Last Exorcism”? I guess the studio thought so too because they came up with the subtitle ‘god asks the devil commands’ rather than go with “The Last Exorcism II”.

The smart thing about BBC’s The Fall is that you already know who the killer is right from the start. Paul Spector (Jamie Dornan) is a family man by day and serial killer by night. Meanwhile we have icy cold Stella Gibson (Gillian Anderson) playing the cop who chases him. Things quickly turn into a cat and mouse game between the two when Gibson continues to get closer to Spector while he’s hunting down his next victim in Belfast.
