"1. The 1st girl who got killed. She's in a mall full of like 100 people and nobody has seen her. Even when she was going down in the Elevator the cops didn't see her its just stupid.
"
I agree, all this 'have you sen this girl' crap in this movie is stupid on so many levels it made my brain overload, I can't even analyze it all. It's just so implausible and ridiculous.
"2. How the hell the Keanu Reeves manage to get in her apartment without any proof that he broke in?"
This one was actually explained in the movie, he is supposedly as skilled a lockpicker as 'Lockpicking Lawyer'. This was the least stupid part of the movies, because at least it makes some kind of sense. This can't be said about a whole lot of the other things in this movie, though.
"3. The girl at the photostore. "I have to call my boss" Well one of your employees is about to get killed and its an emergency. You should give the cops the number to her apartment."
Maybe I am giving this trash'movie' too much credit, but I thought this simply meant the boss is the only one that has that information, so she has to retrieve it from her boss, because she doesn't have it. Of course, anyone can impersonate a cop and flash a fancy badge, people aren't generally trained to recognize the signs of a real police ID, or differentiate between a fake and a real badge, etc., so this kind of scam would be easy. She would be right to be cautious.
Of course, if I remember (as my brain tries to forget I ever saw this, it's difficult) correctly, there were a lot of cops in uniform frolicking around, so that might have been a clue for her.
"4. James Spader's character is a former cop/druggie who pops pills whenever he wants to, and gets his job back"
I was also shocked to see they simply have him in the payroll without questions asked, the therapist would've probably sent him to some kind of clinic or rehabilitation program first, but nope. Everyone just accepts his casual drug abuse. WHAT?
