Ridley Scott's direction is, as always, dynamic and his camera tricks look good, but the script in this case is very weak, and the story itself is actually nonsense. I didn't like Wesley Snipes at all (where is his charisma from the Blade series), and Robert De Niro has such a terrible role that the creators might not have been serious about it.

Robert De Niro initially rejected this project, but Tony Scott spent a lot of time talking him into it. And that turned out to be a mistake on De Niro’s part. The Fan is a terrible thriller and the actor has an even more terrible role in it. If the screenplay is no good, then not even fancy camera filters can help.
