Many years since I've tuned in and while some of the luster is gone with repeated viewings, I still find this incredibly creepy with one of the most downbeat wrap-ups ever. I also think Morgan Freeman is superb as the meticulous yet burnt out detective and while Brad Pitt gets top billing, I found his character incredibly obnoxious, although You feel such pity for him towards the end. Watching yesterday, it just seemed to Me that He was not the right kind of person to be a detective; too impetuous, too hotheaded, too hung-ho and took comments as slights, instead of trying to learn from them. You can appreciate his wanting to do the right thing, but more training would have been better. Also, the HUGE mistake He makes in underestimating John Doe; even when in custody, Doe still has the upper hand. Very much worth a watch. ****
