We saw no character progression that would lead to the murders. No real motive. Not in the script, nor in the actor's attempts at characterization; it was completely unbelievable. Maybe the movie production team & actors should have read a bit more shakespeare, that way they could have seen some good examples of how a more-or-less normal guy can end up committing heinous crimes (any of the tragedies).
