    Remember how nuts last weekend's movie roster was? This weekend brings us WILDWOOD, CLAYFACE, WICKER, A TALENT FOR MURDER, and KLARA AND THE SUN. Still playing: YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING, STREET FIGHTER, YOUR MOTHER YOUR MOTHER YOUR MOTHER, WHALEFALL, FORGOTTEN ISLAND, even a few DEVILS screens. Wow.

    A Talent for Murder A Tom Ripley movie inside a Tom Ripley movie about a Tom Ripley book. Deliciously juicy and camp. Made to be seen with a crowd and one that will no doubt unveil some extra layers on a rewatch.

    “The film blurs the line between fact and fiction perhaps once too often, thereby removing the fun of a mystery: finding out what really happened. It’s a gorgeous film boasting fun turns from great actors. A Talent for Murder is just maybe more of a mash note to thrillers than a thriller itself.”

    A TALENT FOR MURDER. Patricia Highsmith never wrote a sixth Ripley novel, but what Corbijn's mostly harmless great looking film asks is "what if she had imagined what it might be like to contemplate writing one more?" Ehrenreich gets to do some Tomplay and Mirren has a ball as a cranky recluse.

    Corbijn clearly understands the author and how to bring out the best elements of her work in this mostly thrilling, tantalizing fiction-meets-real-world concept. That’s a noteworthy talent #ATalentforMurder www.flickeringmyth.com/movie-review...

    Crawlers: I will give this movie a C-. Think a mixture of Sting and Arachnophobia. A Talent for Murder: I will give it a C+. It’s a very slow movie but overall decent.

    A Talent For Murder I can't really judge this as I left during it due to someone who was coughing through 80% of the movie until I left to avoid getting sick. It was alright for the first half or so. The ending will be the deciding factor which I unfortunately didn't see.

    The #mysterymovie double feature was A Talent for Murder (a Talented Mr Ripley movie) and for the 2nd R rated flik, Crawlers. The Mr Ripley movie was interesting. Good story, good cast led by Helen Mirren. Crawlers was a worse version of Arachnophobia in an apartment building.
