It shows what police and the journalists did, and the letters the killer used to wrote, some of them containing codes that remain mostly undeciphered. The film is engaging, intense, and shows the link, sometimes difficult, between the media and the authorities, but the merit of the film is to give a broad view of what has happened over the years, being very faithful to the facts and keeping our attention when we already know the whole story.

The pace is good, allowing us to see the details. It may seem a little slower than other thrillers, but I didn't feel I was wasting time on accessory things. The environment is tense enough to keep our interest without fear. Cinematography has been smartly for that purpose when required. Crimes are quite intense and give us some of the most dramatic scenes. I almost didn't noticed special effects, they knew how to be subtle. Jake Gyllenhaal, Robert Downey Jr., Anthony Edwards, Mark Ruffalo and John Carroll Lynch are the most notable actors in a vast and competent cast, but Gyllenhaal deserves a very special applause for the way he has built his character, a quiet individual who is interested in search the killer by his own means. It's undoubtedly a psychologically dense and strong character, and the actor was perfectly capable of dealing with that. Ruffalo, on the other hand, showed the dismay of the police, after years of wild-goose chase.

I'm not sure, but I think Zodiac Case is still open in California. Anyway, this is a good thriller, true to the facts and with a strong, committed and capable cast. Even so, it's length, longer and slower than usual for this genre, can make some people lose their interest.… Expand

I wouldn't say this is the best Fincher could do, but I can assure you that if you cannot enjoy watching this, none of Fincher's creation would satisfy you.

A thriller that is well-directed, well-acted and all around, a very interesting movie. It has a dark and chilling atmosphere, along with some very suspenseful and intense moments.

He depicted everything as it is - no paint, no farce. And he's not interested in the identity of a serial killer. Because he even uses different actors to play the Zodiac in the shooting of the murders.

A detective story based on a true story. Fine by me. It was interesting. It's probably even more interesting for those familiar with the Zodiac case. Great movie. I don't know what else to add. For fans of the detective genre, I recommend it.

Fincher's directing and the frenetic editing manage to deliver a fast-paced and tense movie, even thoung it may be too long. I found the ending a bit disappointing but since it's an adaptation I can't blame Fincher for that one.

Clever casting for the lead roles leads to some outstanding performances by Jake Gyllenhaal, Robert Downey Jr. and Mark Ruffalo. The film itself is long, some might say to long but the every detail, big and small is so precise and is key to Fincher conveying his take on events and also in showing the effects the Zodiac has on each character. But don't let how long the film is put you off because its so compelling and intense yet intriguing that it keeps you following the story and wanting to see what's going to happen next. Of course the main point of story is based on the murders of the Zodiac killer but the main theme is how the killings affect each character and gradually wares them down with initially, the lack evidence to identify a suspect and then later to make a proper conviction. Downey dazzles as a journalist investigating the murders that brings him new found popularity which leads him down the drugs route due to the frustration and inability to find the man responsible, Ruffalo is is fantastic form and delivers a majestic performance as a cop tasked with finding the Zodiac, Gyllenhaal is the surprise of the show for me, his portrayal of a strange and peculiar yet inspiring cartoonist, Robert, is tremendous, but Fincher's choice in John Carroll Lynch as Arthur Leigh Allen was genius as his depiction of the prime suspect is fabulously creepy and encapsulates the reason why he is the prime suspect to perfection. All in all, Zodiac is a truly exceptional piece of filmmaking and something that you simply cannot afford to miss out on.… Expand

Though the first hour was pretty interesting and Robert Downey Jr. is hilarious in this crime/thriller. In the main menu it had the Jaws music and sounded so cool and creepy at the same time. Well, I was disappointed to the fact that all the music was was someone going: dudududu. OH please! Just get on with it Fincher. But other than that it was a very entertaining gripping picture.… Expand

But I think that the people who find this film boring have missed the point. As have the people who praise it. That is because all of ZODIAC's points are made too shallowly. It shows us investigative oversight and the tragic frustrations of case-work in a pre-digital age. But the film won't commit to being about that. And it falls short as character study- we are told of obsession and it's toll, but we are neither SHOWN nor presented the invitation to make up our own minds. What should be the most gripping aspects of the film instead become just more details, just more bits of evidence, in a story with no satisfactory resolution. Of course, life cannot always have satisfactory resolutions, but DRAMA can, and should- even in an open-ended story. As such, ZODIAC works only as an expertly crafted, quite interestin historical piece. A kind of lesser IN COLD BLOOD. Certainly worth seeing and to be appreciated in some ways, but nothing to get excited about.… Expand

This film does have a few really cool shots, specifically the A great film from Fincher. No, it does not have the stylistic cinematography of some of his other films. But I believe that he uses whatever style is appropriate to the topic. This film does have a few really cool shots, specifically the tracking shot from above on the taxi cab, and the shot on the Golden Gate bridge. Jake Gyllenhaal is perfect for his part. He has always been a natural for the wide-eyed, innocent youth, while not being boring or cliche. Mark Ruffalo gave the other standout performance in this piece. I liked Robert Downey Jr, but I can't help feeling that this is the same part that he always plays now. And why does someone in recovery constantly play characters that are using? The story itself is captivating, especially for one, like myself, who is completely unfamiliar with the story. I was not even aware of the Dirty Harry connection as I have never seen the film. So that was another interesting tidbit. I loved the muted color tones that made one feel like one was back in the 60's/70's. I find it strange that people complain about wasting half an hour "pursuing a lead that goes nowhere." That lead, if I understand correctly, is the same man that most people believe to have been the actual Zodiac killer, as we discover by the end of the film. The violence was played down, except for one or two scenes that were truly terrifying. I didn't mind that we were focusing on Robert Graysmith (Gyllenhaal) rather than someone else, as he's the only one who never gave up on trying to put it all together. He wrote the book, and it only seems logical to follow his voyage through the events. Many solid performances from character actors in small rolls, namely Brian Cox and Philip Baker Hall. I never felt like the film was too long. It kept me hooked the entire time. Maybe some people have a shorter attention span or maybe it's just not their cup of tea. Also, one should not expect a director to go on making the exact same type of movie throughout his/her career. A director, in fact, any artist, needs to grow and explore new directions. I applaud Fincher for giving this story the exact direction that it required: nothing over the top, with an underlying tension and unease throughout the entire film.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is the best possible movie that could have been made about the unsolved case of the Zodiac Killer. With that being said, the movie will always be a bit annoying because of the fact that the case is indeed unsolved. The movie is always building up to an amazing ending even though most viewers know that the ending will be inconclusive. Just looking at "Zodiac" is a film, it is very good. David Fincher builds tension and suspense very well, and always has the audience on edge. The cinematography in this film is absolutely spectacular, and so is the direction. It is hard to judge this film because of how good of a director Fincher is. This is certainly not his best work to date, 2007, because of the amazing films "Se7en" and "Fight Club," but it is still a very good movie. It is hard to compared to most movies, "Zodiac" is awesome, but compared to David Fincher movies, it is simply good.… Expand

A mon avis, certainement pas, car c'est faire l'apologie d'un psychopathe. Je sais que les psychopathes et autres tueurs en série sont des "stars" aux Etats-Unis mais ma mentalité d'Européen ne l'entend pas de cette oreille.
