Anything in the crime thriller genre that's worth the watch?

I'm a big fan of Den of Thieves 1&2, The Town, and True Detective Season 1.

FYI I've seen Heat at least 25 times. Its the at the top IMO

I watched The Outfit on netflix the other day. Its a 1940s gangster movie set in a tailor shop. Feels like a cross between Reservoir Dogs and The Usual Suspects. Writing and lead performance from Mark Rylance were both great.

Did you see the new episode tonight? Season 2 looks like it's going to be good.

Just a few semi recent based on what you've watched.

Broadchurch (Netflix/BBC) - One of the best of all time imo. S1 and S3 are peak.

Black Bird (Apple) - Probably Apple's best crime thriller. Well worth a watch. Mini series so it can be a quick watch.

Fargo (FX/Hulu) - True Detective style season anthology. Some seasons are superior to others but most all are enjoyable.

Mare of Eastown (HBO) - Top notch. Pretty much impossible to not like this.

Task (HBO) - Same people that made Mare and almost as good, some like it even better.

The Killing (Hulu) - If you want to stretch back a little older and want more episodes. If you want the original Danish series it's based off of you can watch Forbrydelsen. It's showing it's on Tubi and The Roku Channel for free.

Dept. Q (Netflix) - Very enjoyable watch with an odd mystery. Season 2 coming soon I think.

The Penguin (HBO) - Not typical crime thriller obviously given it's DC but very very good.

The Gentlemen (Netflix0 - Best series i've watched this year. Guy Ritchie does it and season 2 was just released. Well worth a watch.

Not sure if its technically a crime thriller but Mindhunter was really good.
