Mindhunter on Netflix is a very good show. About serial killers and the advent of criminal profiling. “The Social Network” is one of the best movies of the 2000’s. Then there’s “Fight Club” and “Seven”. I like “Panic Room” as well but I think his best movie (outside of TSN) is “Gone Girl.” At least that’s my favorite.

Panic Room is underrated

Mindhunter is brilliant.

SM001 I didn’t love the way the time jumped forwards so quickly at some points. I know there was a lot of ground to cover, but made it feel a little stilted at times. I’m also not sure I benefited from knowing a little about the Zodiac history as well. The section where they’re investigating their prime suspect loses some of the tension, if - well, you know…

    vinnyt77 A lot of people who saw the film didn’t know the back story and were outraged by the ending. 😆 The fact that Fincher managed to instil so much tension from the first scene to the last even though the viewer knows(should know!) that the killer was never caught.

      Zodiac is a superb film. People wanting the perfect ‘we caught the killer’ ending need to stick to the fast and furious franchise.

      SM001 when he visits the artist… “I have a basement.” Hrrrrrr….

        Homegrove I think if I hadn’t already known that that dude was deffo NOT Zodiac, then it would have sent chills, but…

        Just back from Tenet. Same audio complaints as everyone else. Think about 50% of the dialogue passed me by due to environmental or musical racket going on which meant I didn’t really have a clue what was going on.

        I didn’t really connect or care about any of the characters but it’s very entertaining if a little overwhelming with the amount of noise and blam! going on. Looks gorgeous. Might get better on another watch I guess. 7.5 Entropy Inversion Machines / 10

        Do recommend wikipedia when you’re watching Mindhunter, it’s a lot more entertaining and the long speeches make a lot more sense when you’ve got context of what the various serial killers have done. Struggled without it when i watched S1 the first time.

          Nothing enhances ones viewing pleasure than constantly checking Wikipedia for contextual info.

            I love a film that sets you homework.

            How Rhouses juggles a film, Wikipedia and 18 bags of popcorn I’ll never know.

              rhouses ‘Honestly officer, I was browsing convicted serial killers and their methods to expand my knowledge and appreciate a netflix show more. Please ignore the completely unrelated dead maid and butler bodies buried in the grounds of the estate’ <munches popcorn>

              Rhouses and fam gearing up for a night of Mindhunter.

              ‘The Game’ doesn’t get enough praise as a Fincher top drawer flick imo.
