The genre of the detective in the cinema has earned enormous audience love. The main features of successful detectives are a skillfully twisted plot, a convincing play of actors, and the role of special effects is not so significant.

In the last couple of decades, calm has reigned in the field of the detective genre, almost all the more or less talented scriptwriters and directors have switched to creating blockbusters in the fantasy and thriller genres. Today's viewer is much easier to find a decent novelty on demand to watch comedy online for free than on a similar query for detective films.

Nevertheless, true lovers of this type of cinema do not lose hope of seeing new worthy examples of the genre, but for now, one can recall the best detective films that have become cult films of the genre created abroad in past decades.

The Maltese Falcon (1941)

And right away I recall John Houston's film The Maltese Falcon. This is a film adaptation of the action-packed novel by Danielle Hammett, in which the legendary Humphrey Bogart brilliantly played. By the way, this picture was the first film in the noir genre. A little bit about the plot. Private investigator Spade is instructed to find a figurine that mysteriously disappeared. Very soon, it becomes clear to Spade that not only he is looking for the missing artifact ...

“Window to the Courtyard” (1954)

The great Hitchcock could not ignore the detective genre. The film is based on the story of Cornell Woolrich. Spectacular sympathies secured the film a position in the ranking of 250 films, the best according to IMDb, and many prominent critics consider it the best detective film ever made.

The plot focuses on a journalist injured and therefore forced to spend time in a wheelchair. His entertainment is the observation of the life flowing around his neighbors, which he leads from his window into the courtyard. And soon he has a strong suspicion that there was a murder.

"Death on the Nile" (1978)

The film, based on the novel of the Queen of the genre Agatha Christie, became a masterpiece, and the role of a brilliant detective was played by the equally brilliant Peter Ustinov, noted by two Oscars.

The action takes place on a steamer that floats on the Nile. It is here that the mysterious murder of one of the passengers, namely the young millionaire, takes place. Each passenger had the opportunity to commit villainy, but who exactly did this could be established only by the extraordinary mind of Hercule Poirot.

Blue Velvet (1986)

The director was David Lynch, the film was marked by many awards and prizes, nominated for an Oscar for directorial work.

The main character, student Jeffrey Beaumont, is returning from college to his hometown due to a parent's illness. The familiar calmness of a provincial town surrounds him, but a terrible find suddenly breaks the usual course of things - a cut off ear, which was found by the hero in the field.

“Suspicious Persons" (1995)

A modern film in the neo-noir style was shot by director Brian Singer. The film is consistently in high positions in the IMDb ranking. Among the ten most outstanding detectives filmed in Hollywood according to the authoritative opinion of the American Film Institute.

The action in the picture is shown in several time periods, the picture is one big flashback, based on the story of one of the members of the criminal group, which undertook to commit an extraordinary crime.

When the viewer wants to cheer himself up, he will take the opportunity, for example, to watch free comedies online. The secret to the popularity of detectives must be sought in their inherent magic - this is the charm of mystery combined with the charm of the charismatic and strong-willed heroes. And they are also distinguished by their ability to keep in suspense until the last frame, and often in the last few minutes the entire completeness of the plan and the meaning of all the previous actions of the heroes are revealed to the amazed spectator.

If you haven’t been fortunate enough to see any of the above mentioned films, be sure to fill this gap. You will get real pleasure and spend unforgettable hours watching the best films in the genre of detective.
