Review:
Season 1 Rating: [Watch it] / It depends / Skip it
  • Mindhunter is engrossing. It isn't about the crime, in that we don't see sensational scenes of death. We delve into the psychology and interviews with the agents. It's fascinating and unsettling to hear Ed Kemper talk about his occupation as a killer as if it were common.
    As the plot progresses, so do the characters. Holden starts out as an agent that wants to do good. He's earnest and naive, by the end his success has begin to make him arrogant.Tench seems too cautious, but his thoughts are reinforced as the series progresses. This is a great series that builds the characters throughout the run and makes you truly look at what makes a psychopath tick.
