\"\"<\/p>\n

The Overview:<\/span> Mr. Brooks<\/span> [Kevin Costner<\/span>] has just been named Portland\u2019s Man of the Year. He is a rich, successful business man with a beautiful wife and a lovely college aged daughter. Life would be perfect if he wasn\u2019t overcome with urges to kill. You see, Mr. Brooks<\/span> is a serial killer<\/span>. After his last double-murder, his first in two years, the demon in him is loose again. But Mr. Brooks\u2019 days<\/span> may be numbered.

The Good:<\/span> The cast<\/span>. The story<\/span>. I especially enjoyed all the subplots<\/span>. Dane Cook <\/span>trying to control the situation in which he is out of his league. Demi Moore<\/span> and the escaped killer<\/span> after her. Mr. Brooks\u2019 daughter\u2019s terrible secret<\/span> that was slowly unfolding. The way that Mr. Brooks <\/span>was torn between his urge to kill <\/span>and the knowledge that it was terribly, terribly wrong. The plot twists<\/span>. How everything wraps up. And Mr. Brooks\u2019 relationship<\/span> with Marshall<\/span> [William Hurt<\/span>].<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Bad:<\/span> What happens to those who fall into the path of Mr. Brooks<\/span>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Ugly:<\/span> The dreams of a serial killer.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
