Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

So much average

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Thats just it. Its the only way to describe this movie. Its broken and I keep thinking of ways I could fix it, No mas. I give up.To being with, its a linear narrative and for god knows why, and yet its still one of the most broken pieces of narratives I have ever seen in all my life. That just made the movie lose its integrity, overall just making the plot weak.The performances are good from a stellar cast as is, but this is just a movie lacking in all other fronts. Let it play in the background while you have a couple of drinks, browsing on social media. Thats what I did, as it hardly demanded any attention from me.

A film about the hunt for a serial killer might well be implausible, but to be both implausible and boring is a tall order; "Texas Killing Fields" succeeds magnificently on both counts, even though there is a chase with a shoot out, a climax of sorts, and a couple of other worthy scenes.This is said to be based on a true story; it isn't, except in a very, very general sense. Is there one serial killer or two, or maybe more? We never really find out, although we know who is the main man.This is a modern film noir although with subdued colours rather than in black and white. Its implausibilities include a team of basically two detectives being used to track down a man who obviously has more than the blood of one victim on his hands. Yes, there are other officers and technicians involved, but major murder investigations have never been run like this, certainly not in the lifetime of anyone reading this review.

i guess people dissing this good film are too used to have everything pointed out to them and punctuated with rock music and loud bangs every 3 seconds.i much prefer to use my brains and understand what is going on, on my own. i appreciate a film maker who does not explain everything as if i were a moron. if you disagree, go watch "fast and furious" all over again. this flick is definitely not for you.i found this story very clear. director knows what she is doing, cast is top notch all over. just turn your brains on, and pay attention.in fact, i felt drawn into the investigation, which was very messy, because, you know, in real life things happen in a messy way. humans... are messy. but the movie is never gross. just believable. but if you don't like believable, there is enough "csi" series to help you.as for the "mumbling".,,. the dialog is not as important here as what goes on. the story has images, people, look at them, this is a movie. and on netflix you can use the subtitles, in case you are hard of hearing.

The best films are able to immerse us their world. The best of the best make the world they evoke inviolate, complete and seamless. For a film about the pervasiveness of evil this reality becomes uncomfortably claustrophobic, confining us to a place so dark and disturbing yet so familiar that every sound, every movement is a potential portent of doom, every character menaced and menacing with no respite from the tensions that pervade this toxic but very real place. The film is only a police procedural in so far as there are flawed but dedicated detectives trying to hold the line against a pervasive climate of poverty, hopelessness and desperation where basic decency is at a premium and life is cheap. To allow one's self to be drawn in, to give one's self over to such a place of everyday horror is an act of courage on the part of the viewer. It is the kind of commitment that the best films demand. The rewards are spare. We come out with a visceral sense of the limits of civilisation itself. We are more aware by what a fragile thread our comfort and security depends. How near we are to chaos. The menacing place this film creates is the protagonist and it's antagonist all at once. The players ably acquit themselves in their respective supporting roles. The story is simple and logically concluded. The 'good guys' win but the menace remains. Theirs is a fool's errand.
