"American Murderer" is a gripping psychological thriller that explores the life of a notorious serial killer. Directed by Matthew Gentile , the film offers a unique and thought-provoking perspective on the mind of a murderer. The cinematography is superb, with each scene capturing the intense and haunting atmosphere of the film. The music adds to the suspense and contributes to the overall tense feeling of the movie. The sound design is also noteworthy, with the use of subtle sounds to increase the tension in key scenes. The acting is nothing short of excellent, with the lead actor delivering a standout performance as the murderer. Their portrayal of the killer is haunting and chilling, bringing the character to life in a way that is both believable and unnerving. The supporting cast is also strong, each delivering standout performances that add depth to the film. What sets "American Murderer" apart from other films in the genre is its focus on the psychological aspect of the murderer's mind. The film explores the motivations and triggers that led to the killer's actions, and raises important questions about the nature of evil. The film takes a non-judgmental approach, instead allowing the audience to form their own opinions about the murderer. The film also touches upon the criminal justice system, and raises questions about the reliability of eyewitness testimony and the limitations of the criminal profiling techniques used to catch serial killers. The film's exploration of these themes is thought-provoking and adds an extra layer of depth to the film. Despite its heavy subject matter, the film is well-paced, with a tight screenplay that keeps the audience engaged from start to finish. The film is not for the faint of heart, as it deals with disturbing and graphic subject matter. However, it's important to note that the film handles these scenes with sensitivity, and never glorifies or sensationalizes the violence. In conclusion, "American Murderer" is a must-watch for fans of psychological thrillers and true crime stories. The film is well-crafted and intense, with excellent cinematography, music, sound design, and acting. The film raises important questions about the nature of evil and the criminal justice system, and offers a unique and thought-provoking perspective on the mind of a murderer. Don't believe the low ratings - Overall, I would give "American Murderer" 7 stars out of 10. Cheers. #CrimeDrama #Thriller #TrueCrime #MurderMystery #AmericanMurderer #SerialKiller #LegalDrama #CourtroomThriller #CriminalJustice #JusticeSystem #InvestigativeJournalism.

If your looking for decent acting, no action and an overall mediocre experience this is for you. And what further more stinks to say is, it had potential and manage to mess it up every single time. First of all with a storyline like this, you have to be very careful and give the main character a heart. There was never at ANY point of this film that I cared about ((Jason)). There was also a lack luster effort to show case the lives of people Jason hurt. Yes, this is based on s true story, but come on now we could change things around a little bit . Overall it gets a C+ for trying. But there are far better true crime stories.

I love podcasts! Especially crime ones. Loved the podcast and had to watch the movie. The producer did a fantastic job and this is his first film. I can't wait to see what else he creates. Podcast is on the Murder Sheet. I thought the movie was very factual after listening to the podcast. Definitely see his narcissistic, almost bi-polar personality and why he did what he did. How he has disappeared and has never been caught is a mystery. I believe he is in another country where he is probably dead in the dessert or mountains somewhere. It's definitely worth the watch and do some research on him.

No idea why this film is getting 10's and 2's. It's based on a true story so if the whole most-wanted thing bugs you, it's the truth ... that accolade does seem a bit bizarre all things considered but there you go, brutal what he did but given who he was sharing that list with ! Any i digress ... Well acted for the most part, decent script, and direction kept me interested the whole way through which is a lot more than be said for most movies these days - have no idea why it's scoring sub 5 at this point in time. Def worth a watch, if you want a well put together crime / drama ... if guns blazing and car chases is your thing, it won't fill that buzz.

I never pay much attention to what others refer to as shill reviewers, but I'll be damned if there isnt at least four just sitting here, just lauding the actor and director while not making much mention of the actual film, and just how mediocre it actually is. Another reviewer mentioned "made for TV movie" and that is EXACTLY how it comes off...like Lifetime "thriller of the week", and pay even less mind to the "awards and nominations" as these seem to be coming from the minor leagues when it comes to independent films being picked up. This fits exactly no where genre wise, other than that aisle you visited last when Blockbuster was a thing. You know the one---where all the barely B films collected dust. This is nothing more than 3rd rate actors, under the guise of first rate. The script almost feels the same; lightweight, for something that is supposedly based on true events, a little embellishment is the only thing that could save this story. Its just like watching a paint by numbers...both literally and figuratively.

Don't have the time, just more 2022 junk. The cast was spot off! Ryan Phillippe's percolating frustrations was perfectly stupid as an FBI agent and Tom Pelphrey was a fearlessly likable con-man. You're rooting for them both at times, knowing they can't both win - but their performances made you feel for them both and want more of it. The entire supporting cast did a stellar job with their roles to improve the relationship between the viewer and the central characters, but not overpower the main story. I had never heard of the story of Jason Derek Brown before and didn't know much of Tom Pelphrey (but now I have to see him on Ozark!), but this is a solid feature from a first-time director!
