Taking Lives (DVD, 2004, Full Screen Edition)

D.J. Caruso, Angelina Jolie, Ethan Hawke|Theatrical release: 2004 | Rating: R (MPAA)

Movie synopsis

With superb investigative skills heightened by uncanny natural instincts, Iliana Scott (Angelina Jolie) is not a typical FBI profiler. This beautiful, no-nonsense Special Agent is a cut above the rest, which is why her old friend Captain Le Claire (Tcheky Karyo) calls her to assist his detectives in Montreal when a brutalized body is discovered in a construction site. A murder the next night provides proof of a serial killer, but this time, there is a witness. Artist James Costa (Ethan Hawke) not only saw the murder, but also tried to save the victim, and is even able to provide a sketch of the killer. The plot only thickens as ultra-dedicated Scott, along with ornery, territorial Detective Paquette (Olivier Martinez) and good-natured Detective Duval (Jean-Hughes Anglade), continue their investigation, linking together numerous similar murders over the years and arriving at a disturbing conclusion. To complicate matters even more, Scott is drawn to their charming key witness, Costa, and finds herself in uncomfortable territory as she fights her romantic impulses in an effort to remain professional. Director D.J. Caruso's (THE SALTON SEA) second feature also stars Keifer Sutherland and Gena Rowlands, and was filmed on location in Canada.

Created: 19/03/10
Recruited to assist Montreal police in their desperate search for a serial killer who assumes the identities of his victims, FBI profiler Illeana Scott knows it's only a matter of time before the killer strikes again. Her most promising lead is a museum employee who might be the killer's only eyewitness.

Great Thriller and very suspenseful

Created: 09/05/09
Loved this movie. Very suspenseful and a thriller. A.Jolie & Eathan Hawke were fantastic. Movie has a surprise ending. You only see K. Sutherland for a short time . I love thriller movies and this one made me "jump" a couple times. So glad I bought it and added it to my great DVD collection.

What can I say! Angelina Jolie is the hottest woman on earth. It is the first time though that I actually saw her b_____s. Really nice. She play a "special agent". Gets to be intense at times. Loved it. Love her. I love any movie that she is in.

Can't go wrong with Angelina Jolie!!!

As always, given that Angelina Jolie is my favorite actress, she does an awesome job performing her role in this thriller!!! This movie has a great cast, "killer" plot (haha) with lots of twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat right to the end!!!
