Crimes of Passion - Passione criminale

This is a slick roller coaster ride of a crime drama. because of the many, many, plot twists it's hard to summarize this movie without giving away something so all I can say is that this movie starts with a plan for a married man along with a beautiful co-worker of his to defraud his employers out of millions of dollars and ends up with blackmail and murder. All of this is common in movies like this, but what isn't so common is that in Crimes of Passion, while you may think you have everything worked out but at the finale you never know who is going to walk away alive.

I gave it seven stars out of ten only because there was maybe one or two plot twists too many; those last two being just a little too improbable to really set well. At the end all I could only say was, "Oh, good grief!" Like all roller coaster rides, this one left me dizzy at end, but it kept me watching nonetheless.

Crimes of Passion serves twists and turns at every move and is worth watching until the end.

An unfaithful husband and his mistress set up a sex harassment charge only to be tricked at every turn.

Jonathan Higgins is suitably pathetic as the dithery,unfaithful husband, Dina Meyer stunning as the temptress.

The ___location scenery in this film is beautiful and sensitively shot

The final shot is worth waiting for and should make errant husbands wonder a/ why any woman would actually fall for them and b/ why any man should even think about straying.

Delicious.

This is another LMN soap opera detective story with so many twists you lose track of the concept. Interesting characters, mainly the three leads, Amy Sloan, Jonathan Higgins and Rebecca Walker. With some good supporting players in the shady lawyer and "best friend" to Jonathan. Won't go into plot, only yo say it went on too long and commercials interfered with the suspense.

Amy Sloan as the "other woman" did a remarkable job and is a gorgeous knockout that you can understand why the hubby left his wife for her. The hubby, Jonathan Higgins, was at times too much of the nervous twit. I just wanted him to end it all. He gets on your nerves after a while. The wife, not so attractive Rebecca Walker, is mis cast and rather a dull and boring actress. But, even her bad performance didn't take it away from the other two. Fortunately she isn't in the picture that much.

The title should be changed to Crimes of Stupidity. For there certainly was no passion in this film between the players. I give it a 5 for the writing.

It made me happy, to discover that concept for the 2005 thriller Crimes of Passion. The repeat however isn't happy, but is a mark of Unicron and Megatron.

To become even happier, would be if being an adult and being a sexual con-artist could become one, through a matrix, and also mutually own inference-politics rights

I think I can just about have that.

No pun intended - and hopefully none of the characters is named/called Benjamin. While the title talks about Passion - it is more about money here. And you will be able to decipher that for yourself. The movie and all of its twists are predictable - at least that is how I felt about them, you may feel a bit differently.

All that aside, we have the absolutely phenomenal Dina Meyer in this. But she is not the main role ... some Dude is the main role and has to ... well it doesn't really matter. Unfortunately the acting and the script are subpar at moments. Still I've seen worse movies so there is that too.
