Trivia
If you don't count The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (2006) as it is a prequel to the remake, this is the first Platinum Dunes release that is not a remake of an existing horror property. See more »Goofs
Where this is supposed to take place in Detroit, when driving through the city at night about 20 minutes into the movie you can clearly see "The Bay" (Canadian department store) and "Rogers" (Canadian telecommunication company) signage. See more »Soundtracks

What is happening to Dennis Quaid? Seriously now, he is playing the role of the distant father more and more and he plays in worse and worse movies. I like the guy! Cast him in something decent!
As for the movie, it kind of sucked. I mean, the mythos behind the killings was shabby, the police-work ridiculous and, worst of all, I could not relate to ANY of the characters except Dennis Quaid's one... part of the time. And the casting just reveals too much.
Bottom line: if you take Seven, you make it a lot less gruesome, you add cardboard policemen and even cardboard villains, you dumb it down considerably, then you get The Horsemen. Gave it a 6 only for Zhang's efforts on speaking English.
