...about sexual violence and its victims. Aside from generalizations and mischaracterizations she makes about Take Back the Night, Caldwell casts aside years of rigorous empirical findings and asserts that a woman can best protect herself against violence by taking responsibility for her own social and sexual behavior. Of course, actual research concluding that education on the prevalence, consequences, and forms of sexual violence is the most effective form of prevention would beg to differ, as would the many chaste, sober individuals who are raped. No matter what someone drinks, wears, or chooses to do, they...

...diff between this movie and the Hollywood product it either parodies (the cop-buddy action pics) or resembles (the current wave of Stiller-Ferrell-Vaughn-Wilson-Wilson slob-buddy comedies) is that Wright is an actual filmmaker. His acute sense of visual wit, rich but not assaultive, puts me in mind of Buster Keaton's classic silent farces.

...fully annealed killer who emerges from this process is a cold and deliberate thing. The time he's spent rehearsing his carnage is a big part of what causes the actual execution of it to appear so disciplined and free of emotion - or even pleasure. That, however, does not mean that mass murder is conducted entirely without feeling. For the killer, the powerlessness that came from a sense of victimization has been replaced by its perfect opposite - a heady experience that may produce an implacable serenity on the one hand, or the eerily jocular banter that surveillance tapes picked...
