Heatwave

Claire, an ambitious young woman, starts working for a rich and successful businessman, but unknowingly gets involved in an affair with his wife.

Despite the negative reviews, I consider it very good, just my style, that police thriller that keeps you hooked on Sunday nights, but doesn't demand you mentally (a simple and chewed-up ending, with all the characters interconnected, and didactic flashbacks) and a drama that doesn't consume you emotionally, light, unpretentious, fulfills its purpose well, an excellent plot twist, with a background (really deep) of solar heating... Very good and underrated...

The actors did a good job given the fact that this is a mediocre movie.

I found so many flaws in the story which was the worst part.

Is it predictable? Yes, but the director tried hard to make it different by adding unknown events from the past of two characters which added additional flaws in my opinion.

In general, watchable.

So bad it might be good? It has so many pinch points of terrible dialogue delivered so earnestly that it in itself was entertaining. The plot is mind blowing. And the delivery of the plot in the last five minutes will have you out if your seat, potentially to leave and not actually watch the ending, but I felt I owed it to the people who worked on this to make it to the credits. I can't decide which cringey character I like the most but I think the one that deserves the gold medal is the refreshingly stereotypical tired run down cop, 60 years on the beat cracking cases but with this one case that haunts him burning his soul in such a moody dark fog that he tries to deny with jovial happy questions and form a bond with potentially serious criminals he has just met. Also for his propensity to call his other stereotype partner who he just often calls partner and shouts at in a lethal weapon fashion but with lines more akin to a hallmark movie. Try watch it as an exercise in patience and you may enjoy the cheese of different flavours, they do their best in this film but the dialogue is just hilarious.

I thought it will be some kind of a thriller but it is not, putting a melodramtic and tension music along the secenes doesnt make it a thriller.

Acting not so good and script is below average i think.

Maby il give it another chance if i really had nothing to see.

Heatwave is an underrated thriller that kept me interested till the actual end. There was just the right amount of mystery and suspense to keep you guessing on where the story was heading. The love angle with the two lead actresses was done perfectly. I gotta admit that I love movies that mix in just the right amount of sizzle to go along with a good amount of suspense.

Merritt Patterson is absolutely gorgeous and the best part of the movie for me. She's the perfect blend of sexy along with a good amount of hot girl next door.

Hey we're not talking an Oscar worthy movie here. But .... It was entertaining, the acting was pretty good, and a movie that I enjoyed.
