Best movie of this year hands down!

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Isbel
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

I thought that I was going to be OK with this film because I wasn't going to be surprised at what AJ Cook might do, but boy was I wrong. AJ is the worst person in the entire cast as she was a complete bitch from the very start all the way to the end. She assaults the same bloke three times, once when she was confronted to being a killer and twice when she thwack him with an ax without letting him even explain. Her sexism in Criminal Minds was bad enough but now it got worse. It was a Jack the Ripper movie yes, but sadly, thanks to AJ Cock, its a jack the ripper film I will have to get rid off. Certainly I must of read the plot wrong on wikipedia. I'll make sure I read it all before choosing to watch it or not
Amityville15
By the time she was sixteen, Molly Keller had already lived to tell a very bloodcurdling tale: she was the only survivor of a violent massacre while on an otherwise peaceful island vacation with her friends. Disturbed by her horrific past, Molly focuses all of her energies in researching the psyche of serial killers. This leads her to the forensic science program at Berkeley under famed author and man hunter Professor Martin Kane. But before long, the evil that claimed Molly's friends is seemingly loose once again - this time on the campus. A reluctant Molly joins the study group which is fixated on tracking the gruesome murderer. But events take an eerie turn when the students discover that the killer's modus operandi matches London's oldest unsolved murders: those of Jack the Ripper. Molly's friends fall victim around her, one at a time, while the remaining group work feverishly to uncover the identity of the copycat killer. As the past re-awakens, Molly is forced to face the terrifying secret behind the stalker's return, and the entire class soon realises that it's a history that they don't want to repeat.This film starred: A.J. Cook, Bruce Payne & Jurgen Prochnow.RIPPER was released in 2001 and is a slasher film based on Jack the Ripper. This film ran for a bit too long as it is 1 hour 50 minutes long, no slasher film is on for this long. So not very surprisingly this is a slow and boring horror film based on a Jack the Ripper copycat killer. I don't recommend this film because it is not very good and not a film that you will want to tell your friends about or a film that you will remember for very long yourself.**/***** Poor.

Girl-running-in-a-thunderstorm-with-killer-close-behind-girl-trips killer-gets-her kind of story. Lots of blood, no originality. One would expect more from a movie which promises serial psycho killers copying Jack the Ripper. No real motivation for the blood bath, least of all a psychological one. Except for the ending which at least creates a little bit of confusion, one could predict every scene at least 10 minutes before it unfolds. Everything in this movie has been done, redone and overdone. It's like watching Scary Movie and taking it seriously. It's been a real disappointment. Where are the calculated blood thirsty psycho killers? What happened to movies like Seven or Silence of the Lambs, with original plots and motifs? Because personally I'm tired of watching helpless blonds being butchered like cattle while instead of defending themselves they scream in agony and then always manage to trip and fall.

I paid £1.49 for this and I'd say I got my moneys worth. As you'd expect it's very derivative of most films of this genre and treads a fine line between credibility and hokum. However it's not cringe-inducing bad and I'd probably rate it a lot higher if it weren't for the lack of a clearcut resolution at the end. Even the Director's Commentary failed to shed any light on the definitive solution, basically saying it's up to the audience to decide for themselves - acceptable in a more highbrow production but a bit annoying for a film of this level. Still I've seen a lot worse and it's worth the small change from anyone's pocket!
