Herencia

This smacks of a film that started out as something else, got rewritten and recast and ended up as what it is. And what it is is a film so bad, that wastes talented actors with a wafer-thin storyline and a plot that would struggle to fill a 15-minute short film, that I can only conclude everyone involved had bills to pay and thought they might as well make it anyway. It really, absolutely is as bad as the reviewers have said.

However, if you are planning on spending the next 2 hours stubbing your toe over and over again, this is a marginally more pleasant way to spend your time.

It appears decent because it creates suspense that doesn't deliver, with serious plot holes that makes every actor unconvincing. They perform like it's a mega psychological thriller but it's just far fetched money drama. Did I mention plot holes?

I had high hopes that once in a blue moon Netflix showed again something watchable but nope, another absolutely unbelievable b movie with a horrible unsympathetic lead actress. I mean why would anyone not go to the cops when finding a man chained up in a bunker? And she still wants him to be chained up after showing proof. And his role is unbelievable too. I mean why not just grab her gun and get away? Really? Script is laughable and only the lead actor plays a decent role.

Had to stop watching half way, couldn't deal with her bad acting and yelling and screaming anymore Netlix really does have only trash !!

"Inheritance" is a direct to video mystery with a mostly unknown cast except for an almost unrecognizable Simon Pegg. 31yo Lily Collins looks much younger, like she's from one of those kids shows on Disney or Nickelodeon. She's really out of place as big city DA "Lauren Monroe", so that's a casting fail, which is a problem since she's the lead. That and other plausibility problems take you out of important moments and make this a so-so storytelling when it could've and should've been worth an 8 or 9 rating. The whole production is analogous to doodoo covered with white icing - it looks good enough to eat but heaven help you if you do! For instance, the whole initial premise that her father barely if at all really briefed her on the terrible responsibility of her inheritance just because someone might be listening in is ludicrous. Fine, you can forgive that one maybe since it launches the story but it's followed by too many subsequent implausibilities you'd have to look past to really enjoy the story itself. It's a shame, because the story concept is decent but poorly executed.

The youngest ever District Attorney in the US is around 35, Marilyn Mosby, Baltimore, the actress cast as a DA here is 30, but she looks about 19, maybe even younger. If you're under 30 or teenager this maybe fine, but as someone old enough to be her Father, I'm afraid this stretches my ability to suspend my disbelief & with very poor reviews, I'm out within minutes.
