Yeah…I think it’s something I could easily watch again.

Eddie Redmayne is superb in the role.

I didn't think they'd kill off Bianca, but as soon as she was one on one with the Jackal, i knew it was all over for her. Jackal isn't written as very morally good, which i think is great. You can't help but like him, but he's a terrible person really.
