Interesting, really. But I have to ask, Is Mr Ripley talented? Yes, definitely, he knows how to lie. But is he a good intelligent anti-hero character type? Not really, he kept doing stupid things that made me say, "You really made that mistake?" Like seriously, he kept making stupid things again and again and just get away with everything just by chance. Seriously, he's not a mastermind genius.
