Earl Brooks is a fabulously successful businessman, a devoted father and husband, a much-respected pillar of his community and, on those occasions when he simply cannot suppress his baser instincts, a coolly meticulous serial killer. Kevin Costner is an Oscar-winning director and a chronically underrated actor who delights in exploiting his own star power to illuminate every facet of his starring role in Mr. Brooks, a movie that is equal parts ice-cold thriller and pitch-black comedy.
