Review of The January Man (1989) by Trailesque — 12 May 2023

Writer John Patrick Shanley was on a roll back then; this is one of 4 of his scripts that were released between 1987 and 1990. This does not seem especially heartfelt, but it is an entertaining movie - a mix of serial killer mystery and romantic comedy, plus a little family drama for good measure.

Kline stars as an eccentric and brilliant, but reluctant detective brought in to try to solve a big case.
