Stephanie is a single mother who also has a vlog called A Simple Favour. She meets Emily, an affluent lady who appears to have everything under control, one day. But Emily keeps everything about herself, until one day, she just vanishes. While on her quest to locate her companion, Stephanie discovers some frightening information about her history.13. Fragile

You should absolutely see the movie Fractured if you're searching for a mind-bending film that sort of goes light on your mind. The main character of this film is a father who accompanied his wife and daughter to the emergency room after she jumped over a bridge. But before long, his daughter and wife just vanish from sight, as if they had never visited the hospital. This is an excellent movie, however it does become a little repetitive in the end. While I wouldn't call this a great film, it is also not terrible.

July 22, 12.

The horrific terrorist incident that happened in Norway on July 22, 2011, served as the inspiration for 22 July. 77 youths attending a Labour Party Youth Camp on Utøya Island, outside of Oslo, were shot down by terrorists. The anguish of the survivors and the fallout from this assault are shown in this three-part film. Although the two and a half-hour documentary-crime film is lengthy, it is well worth the time. The film concentrates not just on the depressing incident but also on its aftermath.

11. The Lower They Drop

The Harder They Fall

The Harder They Fall is a film you absolutely must not miss if you like westerns filled with Western themes. The main character of this film is an outlaw called Nat Love, who gathers his gang to shoot his archenemy, Rufus Buck, in the head after learning that Rufus has escaped from jail. This is an exciting action film that will have you gripping the edge of your seat until the very end.

10. Human Insides

Inside Man is a great movie to see if you like heist films. The main plot of this film centers on a bank heist that its mastermind, Dalton Russell, has nicknamed "The Perfect Heist." But shortly after, the bank heist escalates into a hostage scenario, with Dalton constantly trailing the hard-charging hostage negotiator Keith Frazier. What was once believed to be a simple heist turns out to be much more than that as the narrative progresses.

However, things are not as easy as they look, as there is more darker activity taking place.

8. Mother Teresa

Baby Driver

One of the most intense crime films I have ever seen is definitely Baby Driver. We meet a man called Baby in this film, who has a great passion for music and is an amazing driver. He works as the getaway driver for a group of bank robbers under the direction of Doc. But after one more job, he intends to resign and go abroad with his lover, but will things really work out that way? View Baby Driver to learn more!

7. The Efficient Nurse

Avoid this true crime film, which is based on one of the worst medical crimes we have ever seen, if you have a fear of hospitals. The main character of this film is Charles Cullen, a serial murderer who spent sixteen years murdering victims while working as a nurse. In the film, police enforcement authorities are seen collaborating alongside Amy Loughren, a nurse who works at the same hospital where Charles is now murdering the lives of innocent people.

It's quite unlikely that somebody hasn't seen Breaking Bad. But even if Walter White's death marked the end of Breaking Bad, Jessie Pinnkman's journey continued. El Camino begins immediately after the events shown in Breaking Bad. Despite its rather depressing tone, this masterfully shot film offers Jessie's character a satisfying resolution.

4. Highwaymen

Nearly everyone has probably heard of Bonnie and Clyde, the infamous criminals that terrorized Americans from 1932 to 1934. In The Highwaymen, two former Texas Rangers reenter the field in an attempt to capture Bonnie and Clyde. For those who like crime films, this one is not to be missed. It has some of the finest storylines you will see in a crime film.

The Pale Blue EyeCredit for image: IMDb
Christian Bale showcases his acting skills in The Pale Blue Eye, when he plays Augustus Landor, a 1980s investigator sent to look into a death at West Point Academy. You may be wondering why a person would ask a detective to look into a suicide. In this instance, the cadet's heart was removed from his body. In this instance, a guy who would go on to become well-known novelist Edgar Allan Poe joins him.

2. The Man from Ireland

The Irishman

The Irishman is a great film if you like films that have a tone that is a little bit like Godfather. In this film, Frank Sheeran, a truck driver, becomes embroiled in a criminal family headed by Russell Bufalino. One of the finest action-crime films I have ever seen is The Irishmen, which follows a driver who rises from being an ordinary chauffeur to one of the top hitmen in the criminal family.

1. The Men

 The Gentlemen

Mickey Pearson, an American expat who has amassed a sizable marijuana enterprise in London, is presented by The Gentlemen. He started a fight to claim the very successful firm, and all hell broke loose when he chose to cash out. Despite the fact that you may have seen a lot of crime-related films, The Gentlemen is a unique blend of humor, action, and vintage organized criminal themes.
