mind hunter (netflix series)

is this... good? anyone, watched this? 

 

i watched the entire thing just to see what would happen. 

 

in my opinion it's decent but a little cheesy at parts, or boring. like the psychological information they're unveiling about psychopaths isn't anything "new" that like no one hasn't heard of before. 

 

it's more of a historical documentation of how the discovery of this condition was first developing and stuff. so if you're curious about the hollywood version of the story it is entertaining. 

 

it is based on true events so that's cool. and they interview manson at one point so, that was really cool to see. like, obviously an actor playing manson but. nontheless seeing it come to life on screen was just kind of iconic- and they interviewed several other iconic psychopaths haha just for fun. 

 

but the rest of it was boring and cheesy. 

 

the second case is about the unraveling of a specific case they're focused on, and the rest if just filler. 

 

and yeah, then they come to the end of the case and then the season ends without any plot twists but, it's once again jsut a historical documentation of a case that actually happened. and if you're interested in the history of it, and seeing that sort of come to life in the time and place it took place- it's very fun to watch i dunno, it's kind of pretty. like, cinemagraphic. 

 

the style. i mean. 

 

i like things that have a little art to them you know, stylized. so that was nice. not just so boring and basic and what not. 

 

has a noir thriller tinge to it, ontop of like, 70's nostalgia and something else, like, mystery/horror like... sort of fish eye lense type of stuff. 

 

a lot of death in it so if that bothers you,... um. you're going to see a lot of dead bodies. it's gore.

Yeah it’s alright I mean it’ll keep you entertained for an hour 

 

I just wish there was more characters and better character depth but 

 

it just sticks to the development of the story more so

This doesn't sound like a real recommendation...

Have you seen Lie to Me?

I've enjoyed it, especially the method acting for the role of Ed Kemper in season one. The show picks up a lot when the Holden and Bill are on the road, or when they're facing problems at the bureau.

The character side stories aren't very compelling in my opinion. Holden's relationship with the rebellious girl that challenged his conformity and Wendy's lesbian relationship in season two were attempts to add depth to those characters, but fell flat and felt inconsequential. Bill's sideline has more gravity, but especially in season two, those scenes were distracting from the investigations. There was also too much play on Holden acting autistic, on Wendy being a lezbo, on BTK being an overall angry weirdo. Consequently some scenes didn't appear at all like how anything in real life would play out, and that ruined immersion a bit. Overlooking those things, I felt like Mindhunter did maintain suspense well and it was a good show.
