La toile du mensonge

Web of Lies is definitely a film worth watching, i found it interesting, it had good twists and a good ending. After watching it I decided to see if I could buy it on DVD, but after searching a number of websites I came up empty, and then i read a review of Web of Lies on here, and it appears it is just a TV movie. I think a film as good as this should be out on DVD, I would definitely buy it and recommend it to people who like films like this one. I'm disappointed that I can't get it on DVD, but if it ever does come out on DVD, i'll keep an eye out for it and buy it as soon as I get the chance. If anybody knows if or when it will be out, please let me know, I don't want a good film to be restricted to the TV. It's a film worth keeping for years.

Good movie overall, but the description 'A computer security specialist...' is incorrect. She is a computer secuirty sales person. She wears high heals and short skirts, and not very computer savy.

This is the kind of flick you'd rent from your local video store circa 1995 along with the latest UFC release. You'd pick it up on a Tuesday, watch it on a Thursday night, and return it early Friday to check out the available rentals for the weekend. The lead woman looks great, decent movie plot, nothing hot or steamy happening here. Basic stuff. Good movie, enjoyable time spender.

OK, it's a TV movie, and the locales and accents all but scream "filmed in Canada." Still, I found it remarkably compelling. I was visiting Bulgaria, where it happened to appear on a TV channel after 1 a.m., and although I wasn't intending to watch the whole thing I wound up doing so anyway. So, it kept me involved.

As to the "penny-shaving" scheme another commenter mentioned, this goes back even further, because I remember it being the basis of a "Dragnet" episode that must have first aired in the late '50s or early '60s. Again, though, I found the plot as developed in this movie believable. Oldies but goodies, right?

Ok. There are plot holes in the tech stuff but the arcane details do not really matter.

I pegged the mastermind very early on but was only mildly suspicious of the accomplice.

Good pacing and direction.

Many reviewers are sick of Canada/bogus NY.

I am also sick to death of Canada and all that entails.

You just have to take Canadian flics with a grain of salt.

Kind of like you need English language sub titles with all UK and Australian flics because of the "language barrier" mentioned by Woody Allen in London.

A good movie !
