I thought it was an average film myself but did hold you well enough not to be boring. I totally agree about the unbelievable scenarios and lack of suspense. There was some suspense but it wasn't as gripping nor as frightening as it should have been. Overall it was not a hit and didn't really deserve to be based on the action. It wasn't a bad documentary though as it was pretty close to what those willing to say about the actual case are saying. The downside is that it isn't a documentary...
I don't agree with the casting bit though. That was a little harsh as they did good jobs for their parts. I thought Downey was one of the best played parts. He wasn't supposed to be straight and was in fact quirky, eccentric, and stoned most of the time towards the end of his ordeal and the movie. The main character in this film was the cartoonist-turned reporter-turned author. You don't have to like that fact, it's just the way the movie was written. Two hours doesn't allow for a broad range of perspectives and it was mainly his that you see through. Not a bad choice really as he was the one most obsessed and who did not give up the hunt. Besides, nothing much else was on ;-).
