SunnyHello Nice effects though.

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

SnoopyStyle Philip Markoff (Jake McDorman) is a top Boston University medical student beloved by his professor. He zeros in on Megan McAllister (Agnes Bruckner) and pushes to get married. He seems like the perfect guy on the surface but nobody sees the darkness beneath. He becomes obsessed with Craigslist and starts attacking the women on those ads with escalating violence. Police detectives Bennett (William Baldwin) investigates.The start is way too slow. The tension is too low at the start. There is basically no tension. This should a horror story or a dramatic thriller. There is nothing close to that here. These are all perfectly functional actors given rather bland material despite the scary subject matter. It's a movie of the week at best.

Claudio Carvalho In Boston, the bright medical student Philip Markoff (Jake McDorman) is in the top of his class at the Boston University and with a promising future. When he meets the gorgeous Megan McAllister (Agnes Bruckner), they fall in love with each other and move in together to an apartment. Six months later, they travel to New Jersey and Philip proposes to marry her. However, Philip shows that is also a dysfunctional man that posts in the Craigslist that he loves bondage and travesties and seeks masseuses to submit them to bondage and steals them. When he brutally kills a masseuse from New York that reacts to his attack, Detectives Bennett (William Baldwin) and Frye (Josh Close) track him down and their investigation discover the dark side of promising doctor."The Craigslist Killer" is a decent TV movie based on the true story of a man that is a bright student but also a deviant person. The screenplay does not keep the mystery about the behavior of Philip Markoff and just reports his dark story. The romance of Philip and Megan in the beginning is too long, maybe with the intention of explaining her love for him, and there is no explanation for the behavior of Philip. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "O Assassino da Internet" ("The Internet Killer")

wsills8 OK, so when I went to buy one of my favorite films from Blockbuster, I found out that it was one of those Buy One, Get One Free deals. The only other movie, which had at least a dozen copies left, was a Lifetime original movie entitled The Craigslist Killer. At first, I had no intent of actually watching it, but will nothing to do, I watched it. To start off, it is much better than I thought and probably one the best if not the best Lifetime film ever (remember, it's Lifetime and the movies are cheesy and bad). About the first 20 to 30 minuets of the movie are all about showing how Phillip Markoff (Jake McDorman)and Megan McAllister (Agnes Bruckner) met and fell in love. Then, the film takes off. Bruckner and William Baldwin who plays Detective Bennett provide very believing roles, but McDorman's is mediocre. None the less, the film becomes very intriguing with Markoff living a double life as a good boy doctor and a criminal. Then the last ten minuets happen. In real life, Markoff didn't actually love McAllister but used her as cover. In the movie, obviously a Lifetime trademark, they make it this corny, mushy movie in which Markoff takes his own life and writes his so-called love's name on the wall. The music is terrible, the acting is decent, the story is very interesting, and the romance is horrible. Could be a 7 or 6 without the end, but a 5/10 which is none the less watchable. If it's on TV and you have nothing to do, you should watch it.

jDriftyx82 I haven't seen any other 2011 movies yet, because I just haven't wanted to, but I really enjoyed this movie, despite it being a lifetime movie.I didn't really know much about the Craiglist Killer, but I was interested, so I decided to watch the movie on Free Movies OnDemand.The director and writer made the movie so it wasn't disturbing, but you got the message very quickly about what's going on, which is what it needed to be (especially for a lifetime movie).I usually don't watch many TV movies, although I've really liked the ones I have seen, Dinner With Friends, The Ron Clark Story to name a few. And this one makes my list of good TV movies.The acting was good, the writing was okay, the direction was as good as it could have been.Will I watch it again? Maybe, but I don't think that's what the movies intent was, it wasn't meant to be re-watched over and over again, and that's good enough for me.
