Murder By Numbers

Murder By Numbers - "The Only Flaw in Their Plan Was...Her!"
Richard Haywood, a Californian high school's coolest kid, secretly teams up with another rich kid in his class, brilliant nerd Justin 'Bonaparte' Pendleton, whose erudition, specially in forensic matters, allows them to plan elaborately perfect murders, just for the kick, for which they set up Richard's marijuana supplier, their school's janitor Ray Feathers, as a psychotic serial killer. The case is assigned to detectives Cassie 'the hyena' Mayweather, who carries a sequoia-size chip on the shoulder from her previous life, and her brilliant new partner, Sam Kennedy, who just transferred from the vice squad; they can work together very well, and even fit romantically, but fall out over different professional attitudes towards the investigation, which Captain Rod Cody and her understandably vindictive abused ex, Assistant D.A. Al Swanson, soon ban her from when she disobeys instructions and hand to him. When the plotting boys both dig class-mate Lisa Mills, their unnatural bond comes under stress- will it break, allowing the hard-pressed police to bring them down?

I could not believe the ending. I was awe-struck! The "Good Guy" who seemed to be trying to do the right thing was actually the killer. He was the brains behind the operation, and the other kid had the money and place of action, but he didn't kill her. You want him to have killed her, but he died an innoscent man, except the fact that he was accessory to the fact. This is an awesome movie, but it's scary to think that when teens get bored, they think of stuff like this, especially when they're complete opposites and they wouldn't meet under normal circumstances unless fate was a factor...And sorry to say for the victim, it was fate that made these to intelligent, coniving minds cross paths...
