Silent Hours

James Weber Brown is an ex naval officer with issues, and now a Private Eye with a penchant for a rough sex. When various women he has bedded turn up murdered and mutilated, the police suspect him and he has to find the real killer.

Once a 3 part TV series and it shows with the first third really badly constructed and with a poor script. It does settle into relative adequacy towards the end if you can believe the fast and furious twists and turns, but overall pretty lame stuff exacerbated by a daft, unbelievable central performance by Weber Brown playing a completely unsympathetic, wooden character who women seem to adore despite the fact he is a total zombie. One or two nuggets, but mostly dire.

This movie is not very good and the main character is an intensely unlikeable, misogynistic sex pest with no redeeming qualities to balance it out. The sex scenes were truly dreadful and painful to endure. Watching this film made me angry, but I persevered until the bitter end. I'm nothing if not tenacious.

Friends of mine watched this and loved it. I watched it on their recommendation just to be polite. I wanted to turn it off after the first sex scene because I felt like this was a B movie using porn actors to flesh it out, no pun intended.

The acting is appalling. The script is laughable. You know that when the lead actor touches blood on a dead body and then wipes it all over the front of his sweater things are only going to get worse... And they did.

As others here have mentioned it is so old fashioned. I mean I hate all these WOKE/PC for the sake of it movies but this is offensive. Utter amateur night dross. And now I have to go away and think of a way of telling me friends what I thought about this turkey without hurting their feelings!

Yes there is quite a lot of intercourse in this movie (that funnily enough seems to also exist as a 3 part series too) - but don't get too excited. Or maybe do, especially considering that those scenes probably will be the highlights for most - no pun intended.

The acting varies if you are being kind. If not you probably will feel every cringe worthy moment ... maybe you can be forgiving, maybe not. Maybe you'll care who did it, maybe you don't. All that does not take away from the fact that something is evidently missing here (no pun intended again) ... and it is not nudity or blood - if that plays a role in your "enjoyment" of this movie ... I may be a bit too nice when it comes to the rating, but that is me mostly. So be wary before you embark on this adventure, because it's likely that whether you predict who did it or not (I think it is quite obvious) or whether you'll even be able to find one likeable character in this ... the one thing that is almost certain: this won't make it to many top 5 lists or will be rewatched by many.

For those who have reported about the length of this TV movie, this was a TV series of 3 episodes first shown in 2017, turned into one movie.

Actually, I think that it works better as three separate episodes. And, you will not guess the ending.
