Decent for a debut, but I wasn't that impressed. I like serial killer chases, but unfortunately we don't see any murders here. The detective searches for the killer based on one corpse that turns up at the beginning and that's more or less the end of it. It just rains the whole movie, which made a nice atmosphere at first, but after an hour it was tearing my ears apart. It's nicely filmed with one cool chase and a decent finale, but the narrative is too slow for my taste and I was bored at times. 60%
