Ondata calda

Though we see an ensemble of a talent, the storyline not only falls shorts but resorts to NBC styled cliche of twisted affair in consequence that clashes with the main characters troubled and disturbing past. One thing for certain is Kat Graham's natural hair is element to reminding audiences that her sexiness has always been something she was born with.

We meet Claire a thriving woman who's past behavior cokes into question though she can fool audiences with innocence or scorned she meets her match in the form of being the mistress of a high profiled entrepreneur not only is she wife of her CEO but she entangles herself in their lives not to social climb but to hide her true personality of a rather troubled woman. It reunites her with a Vampire Diaries costar and uses allegory of the excessive heat all while falling in and out of art house featured films, not too worthy of its praise but well enough that the central cast deserves their recognition.

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...

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.

I thought it will be some kind of a thriller but it is not, putting a melodramtic and tension music along the secenes doesnt make it a thriller.

Acting not so good and script is below average i think.

Maby il give it another chance if i really had nothing to see.

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.
