Film Review: 'To Catch a Killer' is a Consistently Compelling Serial
What you're seeing is simply a good movie, as opposed to potentially a great one, given the director. Still, the good very much outweighs the bad here. To Catch a Killer won't make you forget about the classic procedurals, but it does scratch that sort of cinematic itch. With strong work from Mendelsohn and Woodley, in addition to a unique ...

Apr 18, 2023. The worst thing you can say about To Catch a Killer is that it's so adeptly executed in all departments that one is disappointed it ends up feeling a tad generic. It's engrossing, sometimes exciting, yet never fully free from an overall sense of derivation. Read More.

To Catch a Killer Review
504. A puzzling disappointment, the dour procedural thriller To Catch a Killer suffers from a staggeringly unbelievable plot, a poor choice of tone, and some unfortunate miscasting.
