Hide - Segreti sepolti

The discovery of mummified womens' bodies in an underground pit sparks an investigation into a grisly affair in "Hide," a 2011 TV movie. Carla Gugino stars as the detective married to her career. The murders are reminiscent of an earlier murder where the victim survived. In the current set of murders, one victim is wearing a necklace with her name on it; however, it turns out that the necklace was a gift from her best friend -- who looks very much like the victim from the previous murder.

Fairly interesting if slightly confusing TV movie where there are plenty of suspects, but if you've seen as many of this type of thing as I have, you'll figure at least part of it out in the first fifteen minutes.

There is something very detached about not only the story but the performances. Carla Gugino is the big name in this, followed by Mark-Paul Gosselaar of Franklin & Bash. Unfortunately, the dialogue isn't much. Gugino is worthy of better, but she looks great.

Okay. So far, these TNT mystery movies aren't ringing my chimes.

Hide was actually the very first Lisa Gardner book I ever read and while I was reading it I could picture it being a movie, but what they've done here is an abomination. Watchable, sure, but this particular book had the potential to make a damn good theatrical movie.

Good casting. A crime scene is stumbled upon,,, female corpses have been mummified,,, and the officer in charge has terrible commitment issues,,, what more do ya need? Lol,, plus,,, Carla Gugino is the lead officer,,, so,, there ya go!

Just watch it!

There was a hole In the middle of the ground The prettiest hole That you ever did see And the green grass grows all around all around And the green grass grows all around And in this hole...

For people that read the books that the characters are based on, there is no excuse.

Now for the rest of us, that have no book reference, we get a pretty standard detective formula movie. It does have a few layers. All kinds of people could have done all kinds of despicable deeds. Even the good guys are not kosher in thoughts and deeds. Of course, there is the possibility that it is the last person you would suspect.

This presentation was made for TV and maybe a pilot for a series that never got off the ground.

If you like detective shows this is worth watching.

This book would have made an amazing movie. Ruining the main character, poor taste. I wont go on because the actors and actresses in this is great but this book was not even comparable. Lisa Gardner deserved wayyy better.
