Assumed Killer

I watched the movie being made and thought this was a good movie when I finally got to see it. For an actress whose previous experience has mostly been in short films Barbie Castro is quite good and Casper Van Dien brings his usual talent to the movie. I really liked Christie Lynn Smith...both her acting and the character she played. The production is better than what you'd expect for a made-for-TV movie, maybe because it was originally planned to be an Indie theater release. As for the plot, I felt it had the right mix of suspense and drama and lush south Florida locations. Just when you think you have it figured out it goes in a different direction and it keeps you wondering. Perhaps it's not "Charade" but I would certainly recommend this movie.

You should definitely watch this movie!! The plot line had twists and turns, which kept my interest peaked. I am not an easy critic, so am compelled to tell you that I was hanging on every word to see what would happen next.

The storyline is captivating and the actors seemed so natural in their roles, that it felt like watching real life.

Casper and Barbie Castro play likable roles as husband and wife. The latter played a role where she lost her memory, and is unsure of reality. There is some mystery in the end which leaves the story open to a sequel.

I hope to see this movie again on a major network, because I'm sure the movie has appeal to the general public and will intrigue and entertain the masses.

I had the great misfortune of being 'treated' to this utterly contrived pompous piece of cinema at a friend's house. One often wonders what's in it for producers and the financiers - certainly not box office gold. The script is utterly lame, predictable and down right infantile in parts. T he dialog and acting are unbelievably wooden and amateurish. the main characters appear to have been brought together through a blind date and compelled to see it through to the bitter end. I think the main clue to all those who may be considering watching this film is CASPER. I think it is now a virtual guarantee that any film with CASPER in it is unwatchable unless absolutely inebriated to the point loosing consciousness. But when a film that casts CASPER and ARMAND together spells cinematic bubonic plague - any contact can be seriously injurious to human intellect and aesthetic sensibilities.

As I said on my time line this is well worth a watch. It has something extra than the usual TV movie and is worth a 9 o'clock slot on Channel 5 USA or UK. It is the type of film that suits a sickie or a day off, and some tea and a cake, feet up and watch this. It has twists and turns and as the previous reviewer said it's not predictable. It is the type of little gem you add to your collection if you need something to amuse you in the future or to show to a couple of friends who are round for a film and a pizza. Great stuff it may have been made for TV but it's better than some of the disappointments I've been to see at the cinema this past year.

Concorde Films and Barbie Castro have some great gems in their "killer" series and their first one Assumed Killer does not disappoint. This movie is suspenseful, exciting, mysterious and with an all star cast. This is a great watch that will leave you surprised with all the twists and turns until the very end. Don't miss out.
