Consensus: A quiet, dialogue-driven thriller that delivers with scene after scene of gut-wrenching anxiety. David Fincher also spends more time illustrating nuances of his characters and recreating the mood of the 70s than he does on gory details of murder.

An enthrallingly unsatisfactory film, worth watching and deciphering
Aug 27, 2009
Zodiac is a marvel of moody photography, as it tries to capture the funereal pall hanging over a metropolitan city in the grip of fear.
Mar 10, 2009
...an effective reenactment of some chilling real-life events.
Jan 21, 2009
There are no tidy, last-minute plot twists to make you feel good in Fincher's Zodiac, just focus -- to keep an audience focused -- and the most disciplined filmmaking you've seen in forever.
Oct 18, 2008
Top Critic[W]here Se7en, with its stygian gloom and theatrical executions, inflated the serial killer genre to gothic proportions, Zodiac lets the air back out. It is methodical rather than macabre, clinical rather than cruel.
Sep 18, 2008
Top CriticZodiac does a great job of showing three different paths (reporter, cop, cartoonist) in trying to capture a serial killer.
Sep 4, 2008
Zodiac has us ponder the frustrations of a case that won't close up tightly like your weekly CSI.
Jun 21, 2008
Gone are the emphatic jumps and the flying-camera-through-the-keyhole style of "Panic Room". By avoiding the superficial scares he ends up creating a more devastating dread
Apr 16, 2008
It is not its lack of resolution that makes Zodiac a poor film, it is its stupefying dull progression.
Feb 28, 2008
An all-star cast delivers in David Fincher's look into the investigation around one of history's great unsolved serial killer cases.
Feb 2, 2008
What makes this movie special is that really, not much happens. ,yet it's insanely gripping, even if someone is explaining discovery or flipping through a file.
Jan 10, 2008
Fincher, more subdued ... and aching for a return to smart suspense films from the likes of Sidney Lumet and Alan J. Pakula, pulls us by the collar into the frame and cranks the sense of menace taut without cheap tricks or cop-out gimmicks.
Jan 8, 2008
Top Critic... with this film [Fincher] detours from the graphic violence and depravity of Se7en and Fight Club to a more psychological realm of terror.
Jan 2, 2008
David Fincher presents an intriguing and intelligent puzzle of a film.
Oct 18, 2007
Not until well into its second hour does it settle on a theme: the need to know the truth, and the dismal toll of that futile obsession.
