Why you need to put Netflix's new upcoming crime series 'Mindhunters' on your watch list!


LOOK OUT! Anticapition levels are off the Richter scale for this one! And by the sounds of it, it's not just me as Mindhunter has already been renewed for a second season and it's not even hit our screens yet.

BASICALY, Mindhunter is based on the book Mind Hunter: inside FBI’s Elite Serial Crime Unit, written by Mark Olshaker and John E Douglas who was one of the first people who began speaking to murderers and later set up the FBI's Criminal Profiling Programme. He's spoken to the worst of the worst, including Ted Bundy, Charles Manson, David Berkowitz and many more. It was from those interviews and carefully examining crime scenes, that he was able to develop a system that helps detectives catch serial killers.

Netflix's series is based on Douglas's work as well as his struggle to get his work noticed.

Jonathon Groff and Holt McCallany play two FBI agents, John E Douglas and Robert Ressler, who talk to (well try to) imprisoned murderers in order to crack ongoing cases and catch serial killers!

I really can't wait for this, not just because Fincher is behind it or because Charlize Therone is a producer, or even because of the superior streaming service that is Netflix owning it and putting there stamp all over it, but because of the real story and because of the book and the brilliant idea behind it that is the real thrill. But yes all the above play apart too. October (friday) 13th is to far away. So just keep re-watching the trailer!

Paul Thomas Anderson Week: 'There Will Be Blood' Review!

• There Will Be Blood, 2007 • 8.2/10 • Firstly, I would like to start with Daniel Day Lewis' mesmerizing performance as the ruthless oil prospector, Daniel Plainview. The scumbag cons local landowners into selling their valuable land for pittance, and then he comes along like a "straw" and "sucks it all up," leaving him very wealthy and everyone else in his way. Paul Dano, Wow, do you really expect anything less than magic when it comes to him acting, he's a true tour de force. I wish we had preachers like Eli Sunday up at my local church. Johnny Greenwood's score is brilliant, it really gets under your skin, you then combine that with the gorgeous cinematography, smart screenplay and the brilliant acting, you then have yourself a film where even if your not paying complete attention, you will still hate the lead by the end, all the same! Yeah, I did just say that. I'm sorry peeps but it got a little boring at times (it didn't keep me hook...

Some funny news as Seth Rogen criticises Sony on Twitter!

Image
Seth Rogen has criticised a new Sony Pictures initiative to make family friendly versions of its films available to viewers. Sony’s Clean Version initiative allows home entertainment customers to purchase films that have been edited for broadcast television and in-flight entertainment systems. Under the scheme, “scenes of graphic violence, offensive language, sexual innuendo and other adult content” will be censored or removed from some PG-13 and R-rated movies. So far, “clean versions” of 24 films, including Captain Phillips, Step Brothers and the Spider-Man movies, have been made available to purchase. Rogen criticised the initiative on Twitter : “Holy shit please don’t do this to our movies. Thanks.” Holy shit please don't do this to our movies. Thanks. https://t.co/0lpoESaIQd — Seth Rogen (@Sethrogen) 6 June 2017 The actor, who has made adult-themed comedies such as Knocked Up , This Is The End and Sausage Party (don't forget the legendary Pineapple Expre...

'Tomb Raider' Review: First Successful Game Adaptation! Kudos!

Image
• Tomb Raider, 2018 • 7.9/10 • Alicia Vikander gives Lara depth and personality much like Harrison Ford's Indiana Jones. She's vulnerable, but she's also stubborn and focused to survive on her own and has never lost hope that she'll once again see her father. The story is built on the reboot of the video game series, but takes another way after the arrival at the destination where most of the action takes place. When the story follows the video game it has weaknesses (as so many games adaptations do), but when it stands on its own, it shows glimpses of coming adventures for Lara Croft that makes you want more -- much because of Vikanders grounded performance. The script is by no means perfect, the CGI was a bit spotty in places, and yes there are a few cliches and overused story devices here and there, but overall it is an enjoyable film and our first successful game adaptation! Yesss! P.S - Dominc West was the perfect choice for Mr. Croft!
