FAQ
The Full Crime List: Questions & Answers
How the 2,744 ranked crime films on this list are ordered, why the other 14,915 are not ranked and how to narrow the list down.
How is the full list of crime movies ranked?
Best first. Ranked by Echo Score; 1,865 of these 2,744 films have none (released before 2017, when Echo Scores start) and are ranked by a blend of their Metascore and IMDb/Letterboxd user ratings. The Godfather (1972) is #1, ahead of 12 Angry Men (1957). A film is ranked when it runs at least an hour and has a score, box office, an award nomination or enough votes.
The crime ranking Why are only 2,744 of the 17,659 crime films ranked?
A film is ranked when it runs at least an hour and has a score, box office, an award nomination or enough votes; shorts, films with too few ratings and re-release records stay off the ranking, which leaves 14,915 crime films unranked. They are still on the site: sort the list by newest, oldest or title A–Z to reach them.
How do I filter crime movies by decade or language?
Use the filters above the list: a decade or year, an original language, or only films with a plot summary, the ending explained or an after-credits scene; the sort switches between rating, release date, box office, budget and title. The 2010s have the most ranked crime films (742), then the 2000s (646). Outside English, Japanese (1,015 films) and French (893 films) have the most crime films.
