"Red herrings" that are dead in the water ..........

Here's an idea. If you are going to load a "who done it?" with intriguing suspects, don't give away the obvious murderer in the first reel, and then continue to cloud the water with "red herrings". Unfortunately that is the sad case with "The Soft Kill". Thus suspense and logic take a back seat to sex scenes, some of which border on being X rated material. I really like the late Brion James, and here he has quite a meaty part. It's just a shame that the script isn't fully developed. This plays more like an episode of "Columbo" than a mystery thriller, because like "Columbo", everyone knows right from the start who done it. - MERK

Ham-Handed, And A Bit Trite

Michael Harris is a PI and former cop with a lot of women in his past and present. When the married woman he is carrying on an affair with is murdered, his name comes to the top of the list of suspects. Fortunately, his former partner, Brion James, catches the investigation and shields him. He also uses Harris in the current investigation. Meanwhile, Harris becomes involved with Carrie-Ann Moss, who's came to town when her sister died and left her the sole heir. But the question remains, who killed Harris' lover, and are the subsequent murders that come in related?It's easily solved from the audience's viewpoint early on, although waiting for the evidence to show up requires waiting until the end. Although it attempts to show subtext about the issues of right and wrong, it's rather ham-handed in its scripting, with little for the performers to do except try to get through their parts in a workmanlike fashion.

only thing good about this film is to see Carrie Ann Moss in her first nude scene!

This is a very contrived and predictable thriller, and without giving too much away, lets say the obvious bad guy isnt the special guest star, and you can spot the bad guy right away. And no, the lead isnt Brion james, nor Corbin Bernsen, who is prominetly billed in the box, but Michael Harris (aka MK Harris) who is weak as a leading man.But for all the die hard Carrie Ann Moss fans from MATRIX, you can see not only an early performance of her, but to see her topless in a sex scene! I believe its her first and only nude scene! but thats about it, and her scene isnt much compared to former TV star Kim Morgan Greene, who goes full frontal in the beginning of the film.
