I saw Zodiac last night, and really enjoyed it.

Jake Gyllenhaal is good, although he doesn't look old enough to be as old as he was. And Mark Ruffalo was great too. I saw the need for Robert Downey Jr.'s character, but only in the sense that he is part of the story. Had it just been a film I would have thought that he wasn't quite so necessary.

You really have to be paying attention as things jump in time quickly, and if you miss even one jump it can become confusing as to where they are in the time line. Also some parts of the film I didn't see a point too.

Other than that the ambiance that the film emits is excellent, and is shot so well. Starting like it is in the 70's with the old WB logos and the scratchy film effect, even though it was shot on digital.

Fincher certainly continues to impress me. Although I was slightly disturbed to learn that the murder scenes were filmed on the actual crime scenes.
