CGiii Comment
There is a very brief scene with two women smooching at a bar - why?
The killer was raped in jail - that is the only interest in this ridiculously bad film.
The last 15 minutes is a great example of how a film can, literally, fall apart.
Noyce should have known better and kicked the writer up the ass.
It still made money...inexplicable.

The(ir) Blurb...
Quadripeligic ex-cop Lincoln Rhyme was looking forward to his assisted suicide when he got the news: some sicko was abducting people in a taxi and leaving them to die in particularly sadistic ways. With time counting down between each abduction and possible death, Rhyme recruits rather-unwilling Amelia Donaghy, haunted by her cop father's suicide and thinking she's next, into working the crime scenes to track down the killer.
