Negative Positive
Title: Mish-mash of horror films doesn't equal scary movie.
Review: "The Bone Collector" mimics the camerawork of "Silence of the Lambs", and the plots of "Copycat" and "Seven". This makes for an interesting movie with Denzel Washington as the bed-ridden detective who shows mobile detective Angelina Jolie the ropes in forensics. There are some flaws in the logic of the story, and it tries too hard to fit too many issues--the hardships of paralysis, the relationship between Washington and Jolie, Washington's estranged family, the gruesomeness of forensics--that the other aspects of the story suffer. Despite this, those who are looking for a scare, might enjoy this. Washington is fine as always, and Jolie is a promising newcomer. Two stars. Josh Bob says check this out at night.
