10 Movie Murders That Were Utterly Impossible To Solve

4. Mindhunters

John McTiernan hasn't made films in a decade because he was locked up in an actual prison. Renny Harlin, who helmed Die Hard 2: Die Harder, spent about as long in the metaphorical "Hollywood Jail" after his big budget gamble Cuthroat Island was a total bust, and studios didn't wanna take another chance on the risky filmmaker for a good long while. Finally he made his comeback at the turn of the new millennium, principally with the ridiculous psychological thriller Mindhunters, which was blessed with an interesting cast - Johnny Lee Miller, Val Kilmer, erm, LL Cool J - with one of the most ridiculous whodunit plots ever committed to paper. By a writer who was presumably, later, committed. Mindhunters sees a bunch of wannabe FBI profilers fresh out of the academy put on a deserted island, with a mock town, where they have to figure out the identity of a fictional serial killer. Except then somebody starts to actually bump off the rookies! There's an actual murderer on the island! And it has to be one of them, because the island is otherwise empty! There are any number of ridiculous methods of death throughout the film - seriously, Jigaw should be taking notes - but worst of all is the eventual reveal of the killer, which makes no sense based on...like, basic logic.
