Sin pudor

Alyssa Milano is a pretty good actress, when she puts herself into a role. But here seems like she doesn't really want to be in this, her performance seems like she just did this movie has a favor. And Sam Page who plays the detective who is helping her, his performance seems like he is uncomfortable being in a scene with her.

Now there are some good moments of suspense. But other than that the movie itself has no entertaining mystery like feel to it, like Scream did, makes me feel I'd rather be watching that instead. I began to lose interest on where it was going.

I can't believe I sat through the whole movie. Everything about it was so fake. I didn't see characters, I saw actors playing a part, reading lines, repeating scenes over and over again. The story itself could have been interesting but the acting and especially the dialogue were so bad! Alyssa Milano looks awful in this movie. Terrible performance on her part, really. The chemistry between her and Sam Page didn't feel right either. Too many scenes were repetitive (and redundant). Some were just happening for the sake of the story, like the part where Grace is becoming a consultant (I mean, come on!). Everything about this movie was really fake. Nothing felt authentic, not the love, not the anger, not the sadness, not even the so called "revelations". It was so stiff, nothing was fluent. Do yourself a favor and skip this one. Or maybe read the book. I haven't read it but it's got to be better than this. Another failed Netflix production, but what else is new?!

Absolutely dreadful. Felt like I was watching an old 80's Lifetime movie. It's like it was only made to show off Alyssa's boobs. And if that is what Nora Roberts books are like, count me out. Doesn't seem like I'm missing much. Skip this one, don't waste your time. There wasn't one moment of suspense.

Brazen is a Netflix movie about a famous murder mystery writer played by Alyssa Milano who moves back home only to face a murder close to her family. A serial killer who kills dominatrix girls and one of them ends up being Milan's sister. The story was very clumsy, I solved who the killer would be in the first ten minutes of the movie. Sam Page who always portrays the love interest in most of the Hallmark Christmas movies is the badass cop, next door neighbor who falls in love with Milano. This was such a B rated movie that I couldn't wait for it to end. Skip this one, don't waste your time.

This film premiered on Netflix a few days ago so I decided to watch Brazen and here is my review for it. The premise of the film sees after a tragedy, an author who is an expert in murder mysteries aids the police in their attempts to find a killer.

Main Character Alyssa Milano plays the lead character in this film and she is just really bad here. Lets face it the most famous thing she is known for these days is the fact that the ship in Guardians of The Galaxy is named after her not her current acting ability. She overacts throughout and her character is so infuriating and annoying to watch, she always thinks she is better then everybody else in the film and it comes off as pretentious.

Supporting Characters The cast is small and unremarkable with their characters. The main one is the main detective played by Sam Page, the two of them are meant to have chemistry but they really don't and it kills this film. He is written badly and feels like a weak character despite the fact that he is meant to be the best detective they have which is laughable. The rest of the characters add little value and I just didn't care about anybody in this film and that was a big let down.

Story The story at least has a bit of intrigue to it, the best thing I can say is that I slightly enjoyed watching the investigation into the case and how it links to together with other elements of the film. Unfortunately, though I worked out what was going on pretty quickly which made the reveal feel lacklustre to me.

Script The script is bad, it does nothing to make itself too imaginative or creative. It is filled with a bunch of clichés with none of it working. The romance and humour fails and the drama overall misses the mark in my opinion.

Style The film has some pretty good action sequences and I thought they did an effective job of showing this killer going after these woman, so that was one aspect that was handled well. But the film struggles with its pacing and really rushes the final act, the film also ends so abruptly that the film fails to explain what really happened and it makes you really wonder why you bothered.

Overall Overall, Brazen is another awful Netflix film that should be avoided at all cost. Netflix make quality programming but they really have to improve some of these original films that are just rubbish.

Rating - 2/10.
