Episode 1 of the first season looks and feels like a mess-up big joke to me. Things after things that happen that are beyond science nonfiction that I can understand normally. People behave annoyingly or like they really know what to do. That combination of its world based on pseudo-world reimagined and current contemporary popular culture surely looks banal. Episode ended on the note that some big thing happened but looked so ostentatious, which of course is another big outrageous event that looks random to me. First, the episode opened with an overblown event that only the Dune could fathom and ended with something out of turn. I will change the review and rating later if I probably continue to finish the season just for the sake of changing my view and to know the legend that is Dune. Why, oh, why is every character so stuck-up or superior? It seems all they want is to save the world, but in truth, all they need is having some fun.
The son of a wealthy family on Greece's island falls fatally while rock climbing. The death is determined as an accident. But his twin brother's wife believes that he was murdered. So she hires a PI to find the murderer.
One of the drawbacks of Killer Heat is the suspects, ie. Not enough red herring because the list is short. As a commonly noir, "half-boiled" detective story, there is the monologue voiceover, half of the time focusing on the PI past, which explains that he is the jealousy type, which helps his line of work -- recognizing the subtle hint that arouses suspicion.
I rarely guess the whodunnit correctly in most movies, though not this one. But probably that's not the point. It's poetic, which brings:
With its unique theme, I believe Killer Heat has potential, but why it misses the target I don't know -- either a little short deficient writing or it's just not working great for screen.
I enjoyed some scenes but was numb with the rest. It is a half-forgettable movie, though I will remember the three actors who have ever been in this one when I see them next in other movies.
