Lawrence Toppman

In its design, at least, Mindhunters"surpasses all other Christie knockoffs. Read full review

Michael O'Sullivan

Corny? Oh, yeah. But it's also reasonably good fun. Read full review

David Grove

Here's a film that exhibits all kinds of joy in uncoiling a story with no ending, or an ending that's so arbitrary you get the feeling that the filmmakers just threw names in a hat to see who their killer would be. Read full review

Mike Clark

A contrived, unpleasant and very drawn-out affair. Read full review

Lawrence Van Gelder

A quintessential Renny Harlin film: a big, dumb, loud action movie. Read full review

Lou Lumenick

So bad it's awful. Read full review

Sean Axmaker

The psychobabble silliness passed off as investigative insight here is laughable at best. Read full review

My favorite movie. It's got a great mystery storyline, mixed in with some comedy and good acting. Suspenseful. Funny. Awesome! I recommend this movie to everyone who enjoys good, fun movies, rather than "artsy" (boring/stupid) films

I think this film is just great.. it's full of surprises. It keeps you in the suspense. This movie will keep you guessing who is the murderer but then it will prove you wrong. so guess again and again... until you are sure who did it. I really like this film

It's a writing device people - one that is allowed to be used more than once in the history of film. I found the writing original and compelling, even if it wasn't always perfect. The production values were good, and the score was well done.… Expand

Mindhunters is a good thriller based on Ten Little **** Mindhunters is devoid of most of the shortcomings of its genre's films. The plot has excellent dynamics, there is no long prelude.

The plot has excellent dynamics, there is no long prelude. The death scenes themselves are original and do not duplicate each other. The cast is certainly not the best thing in the film, but there is no fake in the actors' game either. Mindhunters has low critical ratings, I honestly don't understand why. Yes, this is a film for one evening, but the thriller first of all needs to be evaluated about the presentation of the plot and suspense. And in Mindhunters, everything is fine with suspense, the film constantly keeps on its toes. I advise everyone to watch.… Expand

Stupid and moronic even if flashy and expensive looking. How can so much money be poared into something so blatently dumb? How many extra dollars would it take to develop a plot with even an atom of credibility.
