In the Cut (2003)

Synopsis: A teacher is questioned by a cop concerning a brutal murder which happened on her neighborhood. This cop has a tattoo which she saw on a guy at the day of the murder; he was having sex with a woman. Other suspects are: her student who is obsessed with a serial killer; her ex-boyfriend who is feeling and behaving strangely. She has a half-sister who works at a strip club.
Appraisal: If I had the habit of watching softcore pornography, I surely would have seen dozen of other films with very similar structure and plot as this one. Of course they probably wouldn't have a director as talented as this one. There is little she can do to make up for the triteness of the material at hand, though.
Rating: 35
