An Affair to Die For (2019) Reviews

• Mediocre

  This is a movie with promising premise but it's not very well scripted. There're many moments you would find yourself questioning the characters intelligence, decisions and actions while watching the movie. I'm not trying to sound smart here, but when I put myself in the characters' shoes, I just find the scenarios too far-fetched. I won't give out too much, but I would say this for example: when someone has a knife in his hand pointing at you with hostility, would you walk towards him? There're so many ways to go at each turning point in the story that could make the movie a masterpiece but I feel the writer only wants to play safe. I give 5 star because the movie kept me interested to the end, although overall it's not very satisfying.

  I am surprised by the low ratings and the bad reviews it got. After watching An Affair To Die For I think this movie clearly deserves a higher rating. To me it was an entertaining movie, a story with alot of twists and turns, some that you see coming and some that you don't, but overal there is a constant suspense hanging throughout the movie. I doubt this could happen in real life but that doesn't matter to me. When I watch a movie like this one I want to be entertained, and that's exactly what I got, entertainment. The acting was okay expect for Claire Forlani. She just doesn't have it to be a good actress so that was the minor point to me. A good little thriller worth watching.

  This could have been a mini series. Very well done. Had a "The Sinner" feel to it the entire time, and in a good way. Would have loved more backstory on each character. So much angst every single minute. Hard to write a review without giving anything away. Watch this movie!

  Clearly a showcase for Forlani who, unfortunately, cannot act, merely pout, this film is a total waste of time. I had to keep fast-forwarding before the ennui rendered me unconscious. Pure and utter bilge.
