Tradimento e vendetta

The movie was described as a "Sandwich" and not a "Steak.." No argument.. The review I read was "oversimplified.." It does use a lot of "used" themes.. I won't argue, even a little, that the psychopathic killer who "tells" his victims of his plot has been done 1,800 too many times! (NOTE TO MOVIE DIRECTORS AND WRITERS!!)

There are worse movies--

It'd be a better date movie than some of the syrupy stuff out there.. There's no sex or nudity (although Alexandra Paul is gorgeous, if she's reading this!).. It is nice to see a movie that isn't full of "twentysomethings.."

Anyway-- the point is, it wasn't 100% boilerplate.. It's not a nail-biter, for the most part-- but it does hold your interest..

If you like Alexandra Paul in these types of roles, I'd like to recommend you watch for a movie coming out sometime around November/December 2006 titled DEMONS FROM HER PAST. It marks my second film with Alexandra, and in my opinion, DEMONS is even better than A LOVER'S REVENGE. It will air on Lifetime when it is released. In DEMONS, Alexandra plays a woman who served time 25 years ago for a murder she didn't commit, and finally goes back to her hometown in Pennsylvania after her grandmother's death to confront the men who framed her. The film also stars Michael Woods. And if you liked Billy Moses, watch for another movie with him as the bad guy lead called LIKE MOTHER, LIKE DAUGHTER. It will probably premiere in spring 2007, and will be on Lifetime as well.

This is a good , well directed and acted film. I have to say that it was good to see William Moses play a part other that Mr. Nice Guy for a change, and he did it well, showing that he is a versatile and solid actor. A strong storyline and good script carried this movie throughout , keeping me gripped to the end. I don't have any criticism at all, this is definitely one of the best thrillers I have seen in while. Well worth a watch !

The big, expensive "blockbuster" movies are like ordering an expensive steak or lobster - often worth the stiff price, but sometimes very disappointing. You have the "Casablancas," the "Titanics," but also the turkeys like "Heaven's Gate" and "Bonfire of the Vanities." Sometimes 9- or 10-star results, and other times barely worth one. But films like this one - the inexpensive, TV production can be like getting a hot dog or roast beef sandwich at the established neighborhood diner - nothing spectacular, but usually reliable.

William Moses, the male lead here is a good-looking, capable actor, who has played the "good-guy-next-door" to perfection. In this story, he does a workmanlike job of portraying a man who is a psychopath, a sociopath, and just about every other type of "_______-path" a person could be. His target is played by Alexandra Paul, an old hand in this genre, always having friends, neighbors or acquaintances determined to kill her, with her completely oblivious to this for the initial 75% or so of the film. The performances are credible, the performers attractive, and this is the kind of picture which will not go into anyone's hall of fame, but provides a couple of hours of good entertainment - and if your viewing should be interrupted during the show, the intricacies are not sufficient to spoil your understanding of what's going-on.

Terrific, well paced thriller with William R. Moses,the Ken Melansky on the old Perry Mason television series giving an absolutely riveting performance as a millionaire psychopath who abuses his wife to no end causing her to make telephone calls to a radio therapist.

When he walks in on one of her calls, he chases her out of the house and she is fatally struck by a car while trying to flee. Moses is outraged and vows revenge on the therapist, really believing that she caused his wife's death.

Moses goes into full acting mode here. He creates situations which totally destroy the therapist's life, marriage, and ultimately leading to the death of the good doctor's wife. In the interim, he has paid a hooker to have a relationship with the husband, tape records certain messages and sets a scheme in motion that can only lead to absolute mayhem and destruction to all those who come within his orbit.

Moses has never been better. He is a cool, calculating maniac who will stop at nothing to achieve his objective. He is sinister all the way and even has police suspecting that the therapist killed her own husband!

This is a very well done movie and is highly recommended.
