THE WHISPER MAN
The film
When his 8-year-old son is abducted, a widowed crime writer looks to his estranged father, a retired former police detective, for help, only to discover a connection with the decades-old case of a convicted serial killer known as “The Whisper Man.”
This slowly pulled me in as it went, and finished fairly strong. Other than De Niro looking like he’s basically sleeping through this, everyone does a pretty good job, and there are a few pretty memorable scenes. Not sure I would say this is great, but definitely watchable. On Netflix.
