Netflix viewers are hooked on a thriller movie that’s leaving them on the edge of their seats.
The movie, directed by Damián Szifron, has drawn comparisons to classic crime thrillers such as The Silence of the Lambs and The Bone Collector.
With its dark, atmospheric tone and psychological depth, the film attempts to blend investigative tension with social commentary.
Fans have had mixed reactions to the movie, with many praising its compelling characters and gripping plot.
Some viewers were particularly impressed by the film’s intelligent storytelling and emotional depth.
One fan called it: “a surprising gem of a film. I enjoyed it so much. I was sorry it ended, and I would love to see a sequel. Five stars!”
Others shared similar enthusiasm, with one saying: “I loved this movie. It was intelligent, very tightly written, [and] the characters were interesting. I loved how elegantly and subtly the film portrays emotions.”
Another described it as: “a thought-provoking crime thriller that delves deep into the complexities of the human psyche and societal ill,” while another simply stated: “This film is by far the best thriller I’ve watched.”
Critics have also been divided in their assessment of the film.
While some have appreciated its stylistic direction and strong performances, others have pointed out its narrative flaws.
Polygon noted that the film ‘starts strong but loses momentum as it progresses,’ critiquing its shift from procedural investigation to character backstories.
acknowledged the film’s ambition to critique law enforcement and societal structures but felt it was: “hampered by overwrought plotting and underdeveloped characters.”
While Entertainment Weekly calls it: “a work of style and substance, though it can certainly feel overwrought and underbaked.”
To Catch A Killer follows Eleanor Falco, a Baltimore police officer struggling with personal trauma, who is recruited by FBI Special Agent Geoffrey Lammark to help track down a sniper responsible for a series of mass shootings.
As they investigate, they face bureaucratic interference and psychological challenges that complicate their pursuit of the killer.
Starring Shailene Woodley as a troubled young cop and Ben Mendelsohn as an FBI agent, it delivers a mix of procedural storytelling and character-driven drama.
The antagonist, Dean Possey, played by Ralph Ineson, emerges as a deeply disturbed individual with a misanthropic worldview, and the film explores how systemic failures contribute to such violent individuals.
Jovan Adepo also stars as Agent Jack Mackenzie, while Rosemary Dunsmore plays Mrs. Possey.
