Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Bad All Around
This movie had great potential, but was lost by bad acting by John Travolta. He was wooden, stiff and his fake hair piece was so lame. The editing was bad, too. All the other actors did o.k.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great film!
I'm partial to this film because it was filmed in the city I live in, Jacksonville. I got to briefly meet John Travolta during the shooting. I was fortunate enough to watch this film when it premiered at the Jacksonville Film Festival and I wish it would have been in theaters longer. It's a great film! I researched some of the facts behind the true story of this film and the director did his grandfather justice. Very interesting story! Hayek's performance was chilling!

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Chilling portrayal of the Lonely Hearts killers, very graphic.....
The tone of the story and the cold bloodedness is unfolded with a lady who commits suicide. She happens to be the wife of a police detective (Elmer 'Buster' Robinson played by John Travolta).
The story then turns to 3 years later and a narrative flashback to the current events, by Charles Hildebrandt played by James Gandolfini. It traces the origins of the Lonely Hearts killers, Raymond Fernandez (Jared Leto) and Martha Beck (Salma Hayek) and how they met and went on their murderous spree.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - This film just got to me
I left halfway because I just could not take it. My heart went out to these lonely people just looking for a bit of happiness and what these people were doing taking advantage of them. This movie just stuck too deep.
