I just hate it when a premise as straightforward and yet intriguing as this one is lost because of its makers' inability to capitalize on it.

I think the most crucial obstacle preventing it from exploding is its own plot missteps in trying to be more cerebral than thrilling.
I'm more than in favor of smart thrillers, but as long as they're actually smart.

The game of the cat and the mouse as they try to profile this killer is very weak and for the most part very predictable.

The ride that follows after its beginning is one completely incapable of ever offering a change of pace that would provide just the right amount of excitement to make you want to reach the conclusion. That you would actually care about reaching that conclusion.

The action part is solid and decent. Good acting, music, etc.
The rest of the movie is, well, politically correct propaganda with a set of cliches.
What else can you expect from a Hollywood movie?

Could have been good but had to go into all the political talking points. Gun control. Eating meat. Unfair society. Had they stayed in their lane of entertainment and not preaching it would have been much more ENTERTAINING. I give it aCould have been good but had to go into all the political talking points.
