Movies should be post 1995 and should be like viewer didn't expect or peidict that what will happen next. Or any TV series recommendations will also be appreciated
It could really be any genre as long as mystery and thriller is involved. Id also like to say my favorite settings when it comes to these stories are somewhere in space, in a military setting or underwater (I’ve never been huge on the idea of normal underwater shark types of stuff, if possible I’d like some sort of Atlantis type thing or where they explore a structure or a ship underwater) could be horror or not it doesn’t matter as long as it’s thrilling. I’ve never been a big movie guy so the only mystery thriller movies ive watched that I can think of are Pandorum, Seven, bone tomahawk and the abyss and I loved pandorum a lot
Edit: forgot to say that it does NOT have to be specifically underwater or space movies in open to anything
My Dog and I are a pair of Couch detectives and we love a good mystery. Things like Knives out, Gone Girl, Disappearance at Clifton Hill, Searching, CloveHitch Killer,The Killing of a Sacred Deer, Prisoners etc. currently watching the True Detective series until I get a good recommendation!!
Some more great thriller/mystery movies that get's you to the edge of your seat? I've watched couple of them, can you guys suggest me more, i've watched:
Seven Mystic river Angel heart Wait until dark Dolores claiborne Prestige Shutter island Blue velvet The Game The shining Identity Silence of the lamb Misery
My girlfriend and I are looking for mystery movie suggestions. Which are some of your favorites? Looking for movies that keep you on the edge of the seat the whole time and are next to impossible to predict. The only rule is it can’t be a horror movie as my gf doesn’t like horror. Preferably post 1990 but open to older movies if they’re that good. Limited series suggestions are also welcome. TIA!
I'm more of a late 90's & 21st century kinda person. Movies I've already seen.
-
Shutter Island
-
Prisoners
-
Murder on the orient express
-
The shining
-
Death on the Nile
-
All of sherlock holmes
You could say every thriller in IMDB's top 200 from late 90's & 21st century.
Can someone suggest a good movie of the same era pleaseee
I really like watching mystery media, games, books, movies, all of it. I quite like it as the cast of characters shrinks as well.
As far as mystery movies I’ve watched (not many), they are:
Clue
Knives Out
The Thing (1982)
I’m not much a movie person, but I would like to watch more!
I love watching mystery. I have watched some and I want to see some more but there's only one condition- "It shouldn't be a slow burner (unless it's really really good)" . Language isn't the problem as long as it's good.
I have already seen some famous ones which I really liked Gone girl, memories of murder, 12 angry man, Silence of the lambs, Zodiac, seven, I saw the devil, primal fear, the usual suspect, the invisible guest etc.
In shows I have already watched Dexter, and then there were none, Mouse, True detective, The wire, the blacklist, flower of evil, The mentalist etc.
I want something where the protagonist and antagonists are equally smart and cunning. Please suggest me some good ones. If it's a good murder mystery then it would be best.
P.S. - You can suggest me some anime too if any fight the criteria.
My partner and I just watched Trap (2024) and we were so disappointed 😪
So now we're looking for movies to watch in a similar genre and that's ACTUALLY GOOD.
Any (Pyschological) Thrillers/Mystery/Crime movie recommendations would do but hopefully, of course.... well-written....
TIA.
I have watched most movies frequently recommended on Reddit. I explicitly want only mystery thrillers(including Sci-fi). No action thrillers(bourne, MI etc) or Comedy thrillers(Seven psychos, Nice guys etc). Also no Horror/Supernatural elements. Also no slasher type movies. Era - 1970's and above. Please recommend .Thanks
i also love movies like Hateful eight, no country, Pulp fiction. Tension is built with dialogues. No intense action scenes.
I am in a bad situation: I love gritty and dark thrillers but I feel like I have seen all the good ones. Do you have any recommendations?
I'm not into the old stuff too much, so anything before 1985 or so isn't really my thing. Also, I like dark and serious realism. No comedy or genre bending parody stuff, even if it's good.
The ones I like and have seen already:
Prisoners
Reptile
Sicario
Hell or High Water
Wind River
No Country for Old Men
Eastern Promises
A History of Violence
City of God
The Place Beyond the Pines
Heat
Se7en
Gone Girl
Angel Heart
The Shining
True Detective (season 1!)
Mindhunter
Insomnia
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo
The Silence of the Lambs
Red Dragon
The Rover
The Departed
Casino
Goodfellas
Nightcrawler
Mystic River
Collateral
Zero Dark Thirty
You get the idea. I did not enjoy The Usual Suspects, Zodiac, The Game and LA Confidential. I am mostly interested in interesting cop characters, like Del Toro in Reptile or Gyllenhaal in Prisoners.
Any ideas?
Hey everyone,
I’m looking for some really solid recent movies (ideally from 2020 onwards) in the thriller, mystery, espionage, action, or fast-paced genres. I’m in the mood for gripping films with smart plots, psychological twists, tense action, or high-stakes espionage. Whether it’s a slow-burn thriller or something more adrenaline-fueled, Preferably fast paced but I’m open to both — as long as it’s well-crafted and keeps me hooked from start to finish.
I especially love movies with strong suspense, sharp pacing, and stories that keep you guessing. Bonus points if it’s something a little underrated or off the mainstream radar.
For reference, here are a few movies I’ve really enjoyed in this space: • Prisoners • The Night House • Wind River • Gone Girl • The Invisible Man (2020) • Sicario • Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy • Zero Dark Thirty • No Time to Die
Also open to international films if they bring strong suspense, action, or intrigue.
What are some of the best recent movies you’ve seen in these genres? Would love to hear your recommendations — thanks in advance!
Hi, I'm looking for some twisty mysteries, neo-noir, and revenge-type thrillers.
Maybe something where the protagonist is tracking down someone who wronged them in the past and now they've come to collect?
Anything similar to Mystic River and Prisoners.
Anything that has some interesting and unique reveals.
And anything genre-bending.
Thanks!
As the title says recommend me a movie/movies based on movies I liked those would be: Prisoners which I watched yesterday it was great, fight club, shutter island, se7en, from different genres Interstellar, green mile... these would be my best maybe I forgot some.
I love suspenseful movies where I am on the edge of my seat. I like mind bending movies too where I think about the movie even after it's over. I want to see some more mysteries too, since during the movie you can try to put the clues together and figure out what's going on. Just so you know what kind of movies I've watched, here is a list:
Inception, Shutter Island, Interstellar, The Prestige, The Departed, The Game, The Gift, Memento, Enemy, Prisoners, Arrival, Annihilation, Gone Girl, Moon, Source Code, Zodiac, Nightcrawler, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, LA Confidential, Predestination, Seven, Fight Club, Green Room, Coherence, The Invitation, Triangle, No Country for Old Men, Whiplash, Gone Baby Gone, Buried, 10 Cloverfield Lane, Wind River, Blue Ruin, Resolution, and The Endless.
I know that's a huge list, but if you guys could just take a quick glance at it and see what my cup of tea is, maybe you can help me. If it helps, I like directors like Christopher Nolan, David Fincher, Denis Villeneuve, and Martin Scorsese. Leave me suggestions, thanks!
What are some mystery/thriller movies that are not that widely known according to you. Like I heard about "the last of sheila (1972)" After "Knives out (2019)" came out.
Could be a foreign movie or some old movie. Please dont recommend popular movies like David fincher, nolan movies, identity or the invisible guest.
