While the narration felt a bit unnecessary, Killer heat offers a satisfying viewing experience. The performances were commendable, and the dialogue, though straightforward, served its purpose.
The classic cinematography and well-paced storytelling were refreshing. The movie kept me engaged and entertained throughout.
While there were a few plot inconsistencies that might raise eyebrows, they didn't significantly detract from the overall enjoyment. The music was a good complement to the story, helping to immerse the viewer.
I would suggest toning down the Greek tourism promotion slightly, but overall, killer heat is a worthwhile watch.

A gentle crime drama
Mediocre
It just didn't have any real heart. It was lackluster at every turn occasionally however, some bright spots shown through. A line here a line there.
Beautifully shot in a beautiful location, the cinematography was absolutely great. I just wish they had cut at least 10 minutes out of the film because most Of the character interactions were just fluff, not to mention long periods of nothing happening on screen, for instance, long zooming in shots or too many aerials, looking straight down. It seemed to undermine the setting and atmosphere the creators desired. It was too opposing ideas that couldn't work together.
I will say this, all of the acting was superb, and the choice of actors and characters involved was unique.
Why does this movie even exist ?
A mystery so trite that you see all the (very few) twists from very far and in fact the twist is that there is no surprise at all. Not that it makes any sense by the way when you think about it for one second. This movie is so cliche it borders on parody but it takes itself very seriously.
I guess this was an excuse for all involved to have a vacation in Crete, maybe a tax scheme for the producers also, otherwise no idea why this movie even exists.
It's not even awful. It's ok and if you never saw a whodunit in your life I guess there are worse things to watch but in any other case don't bother.
