Heatwave

Quite cliche and the plot is very transparent to the point you can predict what's about to happen next yet I'm here for kat Graham she makes it worth watching Is it "gone girl" level? No... but it's close enough.

We get quite a lot of character arc from almost all the cast which adds to the plot the movie title doesn't really reflect the plot too well Yes this all takes place during a heatwave but it is more centred on romantic heat & chemistry. A fatal love affair, murder, secrets and money it's definitely worth more than an overall 5.0 rating

This might have been better as a limited series but I'd recommend it for others to watch

8/10.

Heatwave is an underrated thriller that kept me interested till the actual end. There was just the right amount of mystery and suspense to keep you guessing on where the story was heading. The love angle with the two lead actresses was done perfectly. I gotta admit that I love movies that mix in just the right amount of sizzle to go along with a good amount of suspense.

Merritt Patterson is absolutely gorgeous and the best part of the movie for me. She's the perfect blend of sexy along with a good amount of hot girl next door.

Hey we're not talking an Oscar worthy movie here. But .... It was entertaining, the acting was pretty good, and a movie that I enjoyed.

Claire Valens (Kat Graham) is climbing the corporate ladder while hounded by a fiery past. She becomes the new favorite assistant to land developer Scott Crane (Sebastian Roché) climbing over Lane (Aren Buchholz). She is seduced by Eve Crane (Merritt Patterson) before knowing that she's the bosses' trophy wife. When Scott falls to foul play, police detectives Parker (Roger Cross) and Arlo Leonard (Cardi Wong) investigate. They start focusing on Claire especially with her past.

The first half is slow. It's not erotic enough to be erotica. It has no thrills. There is barely any drama. It is setting up for the second half. The second half starts off well enough with the crime and investigation. It has a good mystery for awhile until the twisty reveals start happening. The first one is expected. The second one comes out of nowhere and really screws it all up. The third and final one could be workable if the second one isn't there. The first half is bad. The second half ends up being bad.

This movie will keep you on your toes and the love story is amazing. Watch this when you wanna feel something. I loved watching it because of the love story but then you can't figure out who is the bad guy until the end. Recommend this for people who like thrillers and romance combined into one.

Claire, an ambitious young woman, starts working for a rich and successful businessman, but unknowingly gets involved in an affair with his wife.

Despite the negative reviews, I consider it very good, just my style, that police thriller that keeps you hooked on Sunday nights, but doesn't demand you mentally (a simple and chewed-up ending, with all the characters interconnected, and didactic flashbacks) and a drama that doesn't consume you emotionally, light, unpretentious, fulfills its purpose well, an excellent plot twist, with a background (really deep) of solar heating... Very good and underrated...
