The
Raven
was a decent movie – it was kind of a cross between Sherlock Holmes and an
English lesson about Edgar Allan Poe’s writings. John Cusack plays the master of suspense
himself, Edgar Allan Poe. A mad man has
taken Poe’s most famous writings and has turned them into reality – he is
killing people in the same manner as Poe’s characters died. The police need his help in solving these
crimes and the stakes get higher as Poe’s girlfriend is kidnapped and sure to die
if not found in time. It was a slower
pace movie but they did interweave true facts about Poe into this thriller and
it kept you guessing who the murderer was.
If you are a Poe fan, you will enjoy the historical aspect of this movie
and if you like “whodunits” you will like it too.
