Watched this movie the other day after having not seeing it for a few years, and it was just as fantastic as I remember.

It is absolutely fantastic. Can watch it all the time. Story. Composition. Dialogue. Acting. It's fantastic. Don't understand people who complain about "pacing". It's a procedural film that demonstrates how things like this (unsolved crimes) can happen despite the best efforts of intelligent, highly qualified individuals doing their best to solve the case (referring to jurisdiction issues, conflicting eye witness reports, crime scene issues, mistakes like the wrong description going out over the radio, leading the officers to not approach the suspicious white male, etc etc). Just a fantastic film. Great book as well.

It's been on Showtime's rotation lately. I always watch it whenever it's on, just letting my DVR fill up with other stuff I'm not caught up on. Something about David Fincher's movies, they have a high re-watchability factor. Did the same thing with Social Network, Fight Club, and Dragon Tatoo. and still doing it with Gone Girl.

I would've nominated it for best picture, director, screenplay, cinematography, supporting actor with Downey and ruffalo there, production design etc. assassination of,Jesse James was also snubbed that year

The writer & director of this movie apparently thought that arrogance in dealing with friends & coworkers was cute, or some sort of virtue that showed superiority to rest of dull humanitythat's what made the movie unnecessarily irritating throughout. Hollwood types do this a lot and it probably reveals their prevailing attitude of superiority to non-entertainment types.

You'd think it would have at least been a shoe-in for an adapted screenplay nomination and some technical categories, but the studio clearly didn't know what they had and gave it no awards push. I guess we should just be grateful a movie like this was even greenlit and Fincher was able to make it the way he wanted to, but it deserves more recognition.
