 Good Movie June 9, 2007

This is a very clever, enjoyable movie. Pierce Brosnan is good, as usual. It is a well done who-dun-it. I will watch it over and over.

MURDER 101 written and directed by Bill Condon (who would later grab an Oscar for GODS AND MONSTERS) is a great little movie that I had never heard of. Suffice to say, Condon's neat little script gives us two big surprises at the end. The murderer is hard to spot and the ending is just "Wow, did I just see what I think I saw?"
At any rate, Pierce Brosnan in his pre Bond days stars as a best-selling crime writer who teaches a class in how to write the perfect crime novel. Brosnan gained famed writing a true crime thriller that sent his friend to prison for murdering his wife. Brosnan returns to teaching, to meet his estranged wife, played sweetly by Dey Young, who has taken up with another professor, played smarmily by Mark L. Taylor (Fangs). Another friend of his is Detective Mike Dowley (played with a surly masculinity by Antoni Carone). Soon, though, things take a demonic twist when Pierce is set up for murder by one of his students. Rachel Sbarge in a crafty performance seems to be the one who is setting him up.
The pace is good; the script witty and inventive; and overall, a tidy, surprising mystery.

This DVD was purchase for entertainment, plus you can't beat the price. I was very pleasently surprised with the film, Pierce Brosnan's performance was exceptional. If you are a Movie buff this is a must see.
Brosnan at his best September 5, 2001

Brosnan does it again with his intelligence and ability to keep the viewer's attention. Murder 101 is an above average script and tailor made for Pierce. You care about his character and the surrounding events as they unfold. I found myself wishing that the college course, Murder 101, extended over several semesters/quarters (i.e., 101, 101a, 101b and 101c). If you are a Brosnan fan, you won't be disappointed. If you are not, you will be.
