Movie Review - Mindhunters


Movie: Mindhunters
Year: 2004
Genre: Crime, Mystery, Suspense, Thriller
What it was about (in > 75 words)
Placed on an isolated remote island by their trainer Jake Harris (Val Kilmer), a team of FBI psycho-profiling program trainees (Mindhunters) face an unexpected turn where there skills will determine who lives or dies because a killer is on the island with them.
Anything special/memorable?
It was definitely more violent and gory than what I expected. But if you can see beyond this point, it's actually quite enjoyable.
Similar to the Final Destination franchise, viewers just want to see in what creative ways will the next victim be killed.
Waste/worth the time?
I will definitely be watching this movie again sometime in the future. Altho' it's not among the best or most memorable of thrillers around but it was enough to keep me on the edge of my seat, wanting to see more despite it being fairly predictable to a degree.
By predictable I mean you know someone else is definitely dying next but you're not quite sure who. Also, you know whoever the survivor(s) will be, they will defeat the bad guy(s) by the end of the movie (or do they...?).
I give it a 6/10. What about you? What rating would you give it?
