Denzel Washington plays John Hobbes who is a detective that works with a partner named Jonesy who is played by John Goodman. The movie starts off by saying "I want to tell you about the time I almost died". After that it goes to a scene where a killer who is played by Elias Koteas is put into a gas chamber. That is when the demon comes out of the body and starts searching for another body to go into which is basically what the movie is based on; a demon going from body to body while John Hobbes tries to figure out what is going on and tries to catch the demon and kill it.
The characters in the film are Denzel Washington who plays John Hobbes as is a detective who solves murder cases. John Hobbes's partner Jonesy is played by John Goodman who tries to help Hobbes solve the case. Then there is the killer who was played by Elias Koteas who was seen in the beginning of the movie in the gas chamber. Hobbes's lieutenant who is played by Donald Sutherland who is also trying to solve the case but he doesn't tell Hobbes everything that he knows bout the case. Embeth Davidtz plays the daughter of a cop who committed suicide after being accused of the kinds of offenses that Hobbes is now facing.
Honestly I do not think this movie is unique because there are a couple movies out there that are similar to this one in which the story is told the same way. That is the reason why I didn't really like this movie because there is nothing new about it and it is way too predictable. This is suppose to be a thrilling movie but there is nothing thrilling about the movie when you start to figure out what is going to happen about five or ten minutes into the movie. The story was good with the whole idea of demon thing but the way it ended when the demon went into the cat's body was stupid and the way it started off by saying " I want to tell you about the time I almost died " which was the demon who said that
