P.uncia I'd say this film is a bit less than average. It has some twists that I liked, and Mr.Brooks have you think about how randomly someone gets killed. You have your plans, your day ahead but, no, suddenly you're dead. Kevin Costner does a decent job, and his calm demeanor somehow fits the role. His killer alter ego is played by William Hurt, and that works well. It made me think of how the Ego plays tricks on us; the devil on everyone's shoulder... Demi Moore's character is a bit flat, while Dane Cook is OK. I am left with the feeling that this movie could have been a lot better, but unfortunately it's missing something. I don't regret watching it, though.

moparchris Kevin Costner plays a "cold as ice" schizophrenic psychopathic serial killer Earl Brooks in this intriguing thriller. It is several stories wrapped into one. The story of the main character who has an invisible "friend" who talks him into killing people.Then you have an insane photographer who is blackmailing Mr. Brooks into letting him tag along to watch a killing up close. Demi Moore plays a"bad ass" cop who became a cop to prove herself to her uber rich father. Then there is an escaped con who has it in for Demi & is completely out of his mind wanting to get revenge for her putting him in prison. After all of that Mr. Brooks has to cover up a murder his daughter committed in college. After all of this you have a lot of blood, a lot of killing, a lot of intrigue & a lot of creepy fun. There are even a few laughs along the way. I rate it a 4/5 or 8/10

rahulgalgali08 To be honest I decided to watch movie because I had nothing to do. But as movie start picking up the story it gets exciting. This is all together whole new concept of serial killer. Mr.Kevin has done excellent job so is director. The best part of the movie was less blood shed , as we know most of the serial killer movies gets dirty all the time. Demi Moore has done excellent job and the way police investigate is very realistic. Although she was not sure about serial killer but her basic instincts about finding out the photographer was brilliantly shown. All together this is good movie with dark humor , nicely scripted story and excellent acting by Kevin and other crew. I would love to see some more movies like this in future.

Davis P Even though Mr. Brooks (2007) has a big list of A-list actors, it still manages to be pretty mediocre and been there done that. Demi Moore was the best part of Mr brooks in my personal opinion, she was very spot on and believable as a hard hitting detective trying her absolute hardest to track down Kevin Costner's evil serial killer character. You really do root hard for Demi Moore in this film, or at least I did. Kevin Costner did a pretty good job as the lead, who leads a secret double life as a serial killer who kills innocent people at night behind his family and friends' back. Also I would like to applaud Danielle Panabaker in this movie, she actually did give a good performance, not quite sure if it redeems her from piranha 3DD, but it was good nonetheless. Now Dane Cook was just kinda alright in this film, he seemed a little bit out of his element, maybe good luck chuck is a more suitable type of film for him. As for the script, it was suitable for the movie, it wasn't amazing by any stretch, but it wasn't horrendous either, so there's that. Overall, Mr. Brooks is basically a run of the mill mystery, detective chasing killer kind of thing, not all that exciting overall, but it might satisfy some, who knows. 4/10 for Mr. Brooks.
