LIFETIME crowd pleaser

Just caught INDISCREET on LIFETIME, which was the perfect place for it. This made-for-cable antique has Luke Perry, P.I., tailing a woman (Glora Reuben of ER) thought to be cheating on her rich hubby. Pretty soon, she is in Perry's arms and the husband is dead, Reuben claiming to have accidentally shot him. Perry covers up for her, but it becomes quickly evident he is being played. He is the classic patsy, the fall guy. A $75 million life insurance policy is the tipoff. Question is, will Perry end up in jail? Well acted, but just another "B" quickie. Reuben gets naked on a beach. She's no Rae Dawn Chong, but in her own way she is sexy. Peter Coyote is on board as a suspicious cop.

Great Unknown Show

Maybe I'm missing something, but this movie was great! I've seen 100's of thrillers, but the acting, music, filming, etc. were fantastic! Very entertaining - highly recommended.

Absolutely fantastic movie !!

As a veteran in watching thrillers I didn't expect much from this. To my surprise the film was absolutely a very positive surprise ! The plot, the actors, the music all caught my attention in short time. I would recommend this movie as highly as most "classics" with plots like this. I watched it at the channel "Showtime" and I am surprised about the high quality of the films this channel provides. The fact that the actors are unknown to me has no influence in my rating. As a matter of fact I think the actors are doing such a good performance, that I think it's just an advantage that the more famous actors doesn't appear.

I recommend this film and have given it the vote 9 of 10.

A journeyman mystery/drama worth a look on cable

"Indiscreet" is a so-so journeyman flick with numerous plot holes which tells of a P.I. (Perry) who gets involved with the woman (Ruben) he's paid to follow and events leading to murder and more. A good shoot around a mediocre story which spends too much time developing a thin character in Perry only to reveal the real substance about the halfway point, "Indiscreet" has been running on cable for a considerable time and makes for an okay watch if nothing better is to be found among the channels.

Luke warm

Lack of chemistry between the leads sinks this wannabe sultry film noir type thriller. Luke Perry plays a person paid to spy and take photos of a woman by her husband. He rescues her from a suicide attempt. Then falls for her. When her wealthy husband is shot and killed, the police start investating them. There is some annoying back and forth and accusations and quarrels. By the end you just want it to be over.
