De Niro Elevates Netflix Thriller The Whisper Man

IndieWire’s review finds Netflix’s The Whisper Man a competent but largely familiar thriller anchored by Robert De Niro’s restrained, gravitas-filled performance as a retired cop drawn back into a cold case when his grandson goes missing; strong turns from Adam Scott and Michelle Monaghan help, but the plot relies on standard police-procedural tropes, making it more watchable than groundbreaking and earning a C+.

De Niro Leads a Gently Spooky Netflix Serial-Killer Tale

Robert De Niro anchors a brisk Netflix thriller, The Whisper Man, playing a grizzled Jersey detective drawn into a copycat serial-killer case that echoes a past case. Joined by Adam Scott as an anxious, grief-stricken crime writer and Michelle Monaghan as a determined detective, with Michael Keaton as the imprisoned killer Carter, the adaptation by James Ashcroft unfolds as a steady, procedural chiller rooted in father–son tension. It’s a diverting, well-acted night of chills that doesn’t reinvent the genre, but it delivers solid entertainment with a few stylish touches.

Adam Scott’s Office Audition Still Haunts Him, Now Seen by His Daughter

Adam Scott, who was famously rejected for The Office’s Jim Halpert, recalled on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon that a New York acting class once compared his audition to John Krasinski’s; his 17-year-old daughter Frankie was in the class and felt mortified by the exercise, which Scott jokes should be kept in the curriculum as a lesson in what not to do, while noting his later success in Parks and Recreation and other projects.
