'''''The Watcher''''' is a 2000 film starring [[Keanu Reeves]] and [[James Spader]].
 
The film is about Joel Campbell ([[James Spader]]), a retired FBI agent in Chicago who is struggling aboutwith failing to capture a [[Serial Killer]], David Allen Griffin ([[Keanu Reeves]]). He attends therapy sessions with his female psychologist (and love interest) Dr. Polly Beilman. When he gets back to his apartment, Joel finds that a girl who lived in his apartment was murdered. He fails to find any significance or connection of the murder to himself until he finds out that a picture of the victim was sent three days ago before the murder. To his room.
 
The serial killer, David Allen Griffin (Reeves), has [[Stalker Withwith a Crush|followed Joel to Chicago]], his mind set on playing a fun game of cat and mouse with him. Joel is back on the case to catch him, no matter what it takes.
 
This movie didn't do too well with reviews, and most of the [[Yaoi Fangirl|current fans]] like it because of the [[Mr. Fanservice|hot guys]] and the [[Ho Yay|blaring homoerotic]] [[Foe Yay|tension]] between the two male leads.
