Film buffs are hailing Netflix’s latest release as the “best FBI thriller ever made”.
Despite only dropping on Netflix a few days ago, the crime-thriller and slasher film Mindhunter has already made its way into the streamer top 10 most-watched list.
The 2004 movie follows seven elite FBI trainees, specialising in psychological profiling, left stranded on a remote island during a training exercise.
However, it is on the island that they discover that a real serial killer is among them and they must use their own skills to identify the murderer before it’s too late.
As well as the gripping premise, Mindhunters also boasts an impressive star-studded cast, including an NCIS icon.
Taking on the role of Agent Gabe Jensen is NCIS Los Angeles and NCIS Hawaii star LL Cool J.
He is joined by Top Gun actor Val Kilmer, Dexter: Original Sin’s Christian Slater, Cold Case actress Kathryn Morris, Trainspotting star Jonny Lee Miller and Band of Brothers’ Eion Bailey.
Fans haven’t been able to stop singing the film’s praises with many likening it to the Final Destination franchise with a crime drama twist.
“This movie is an example of a good thriller recipe”, someone began on IMdB.
“It has a graduate suspense, you never know how things will evolve and if you think you do, you are wrong. It combines psychological hints with rising terror and the result is breathtaking.”
A second wrote: “This script is a tight yarn with no extra ideas and no fat that needed amputation. It tries to deplore the Final Destination spirit within the gimmickless profiler milieu. And it works.”
Someone else posted: “Released in 2004, it has stood the test of time well and is viewed very fresh and well now.
“I do recommend this FBI mouse-cat-whodunnit-drama as it offers many thrills and holds you at the edge of your seat.
“Excellent nail-biting thriller where you never guess who the main culprit is till the very end.”
Another described it as “probably the best FBi thriller ever made” with a fellow fan adding: “Mindhunters is in my opinion a fantastic film with all the violence (not violence just for the sake of violence), the suspense and of course the very creative killings (Final Destinations).”
Mindhunters is available to watch on Netflix.
