Cleve H I have avoided this movie for decades. My thought was how could anything compete with The Silence of the Lambs but I am glad I finally watched it. True is early 80's fashion the acting is a little over the top but it is clear why Mindhunter became a textbook example of how to write a crime show. The procedural aspects of it were fantastic. William Peterson, who I love from CSI does an apt job with his role. Brian Cox also does a decent job as the first incarnation of Hannibal Lecter or Lecktor for this movie. I did not care for the ending of the movie which I thought Red Dragon did better but this is a good movie overall. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/29/25 Full Review M B One of the best adaptions and crime movies ever made. Endless style with incredible casting and acting. Michael Manns masterpiece! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/15/25 Full Review Christian K A great detective movie that really hums for the most part. A nice prequel to Silence of the Lambs, which took advantage of the basic structure and expanded on it perfectly - mainly by having more Lecktor and less romance plot for the serial killer. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/19/25 Full Review Timtoons 2 This film is genuinely awful. It’s honestly amusing whenever I hear people say this film was a better adaptation of the novel (Red Dragon) compared to the 2002 movie. Manhunter (I’ll call it Poophunter from now on cuz this film is awful.) attempts to adapt the Thomas Harris novel ‘Red Dragon’. However, due to the fact that Micheal Mann doesn’t know how to make horror, this film becomes a sloppy mess. The only things Poophunter gets right is Francis Dolarhyde’s physical appearance from the novel, and the way Will Graham acts in the movie is somewhat faithful to the novel. However, those are not enough to save the film. The rest of the film is barely faithful to the novel, making it another generic thriller movie. Overall Poophunter has to be one of the WORST movies I’ve ever watched, that aren’t trying to be so bad it’s good. Poophunter is the worst movie ever. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/25 Full Review thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, o filme meio que tem algumas de ação, mas não são interessantes e o filme poderia ser bem melhor. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/25 Full Review Audience Member Other than a bit of overacting and some cringe 80s synthetic music, this is a decent cop drama. And the In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida cut in the end makes up for all the shortcomings. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/25 Full Review Read all reviews
