Million-Follower Detective may be a standard crime thriller with a social-media theme to it, but at least it’s setting up to be a good thriller after its first episode. Go to Full Review

Million-Follower Detective is not a series that worked for me. I just did not care for the style. Not the visual style or wild editing cuts, nor the actual storytelling. As such, there really wasn’t much for me to enjoy in this. Go to Full Review

Niels K @tattrd Feb 17 With an interesting premise, decent acting in the trailer along with action and decent camera work, I was hoping for a fun ride. Unfortunately, it disappointed with a transparent plot and one dimensional killer. The acting, especially in action scenes was mediocre The cast was largely made up of caricatures and cliches. And the killer's motive was flimsy in light of their own choices and incompetence putting them on their path not just the object of their revenge arc, while on the other hand the killer seems strangely expert in skills that make no sense with their background and source of hatred. Not to mention, the occasional slapstick stuck out as a sore thumb. There was potential in the premise, but the execution was subpar. See more Read all reviews
