Burning Little Lies (2021 TV Movie)
3/10
Good story - poor execution
27 January 2024
Warning: Spoilers
The storyline itself would be good, but the acting is terrible, also there are too many stupid human failures and nonsenses in the movie.

They brought the most handsome guys - at least the 3 main guys - just to grab the eyes of women viewers probably?

Maybe with good direction and some better actors this could have been a good thriller because the base idea I think is good.

So here are the stupid, non-logical things 1) The house at the beginning has burnt, at least they don't show any firefighters coming to stop the fire. But after the death of the parents, they return to the same house - which is in full, top condition, all of the family relics - like photos, the whole garage - remained in perfect condition those didn't get burn or something like this. So they return to a fully clean and nice house after it has burnt. Did someone renovate it?

2) The stupid bicycle accident - there are many ways to stop a speed bicycle for example if she did a right turn up to the trees she would have stopped very easily

3) They hack that top category BMW a) the guy can easily open the right front door - but the lady had to use the remote control to unlock the car. SImply can't believe these cars don't have any survelliance mode.

B) Also the guy has cut something on the bottom of the car - was this the break wire which was hanging down below the car - if it was it the break, than that piece of metal bar was too thick for that, also these cars have completely covered from the bottom, no way you can just cut the break lines so easily.

C) further on - just can't imagine that these care don't run some diagnostic before startup - and it would immediately either wouldn't allow the car knowing that break liquid is missing, or if it was the gas pipe car should also know about it....this is reallly stupid.

D) the lady starts grabbing the seatbelt, however if she was just pulling it gently, she could have enough length and simply could pull herself out of from the loose seat seatbelt

When the in law burns the house at the end of the movie firefighters arrive to the scene. But instead of starting pulling fire hose and start fighting the fire, everyone is focusing on that one guy. Why they haven't called police and ambulance - it should be default...

So there are too many stupidities in this movie, but again storyline somewhere is good.
