Disappointing Noir Senseless - The Guilty
24 January 2024
This film made little or no sense to me. More red herrings than a fish deli. The production values were pretty bad and the acting was even worse from one of the WW2 vets, whose name I will not mention. Castle was OK, as was Granville, but the actors could not make up for the senseless script and unlikely plot. The romantic scenes (all of them) were as about as tepid as yesterday's soup.

The police in the story didnt seem to have a clue, and all of a sudden, they became geniuses. The film had potential; almost all of it unrealized, as the characters could have been much more interesting with just a bit of decent dialogue. I didnt buy it. Don't waste your time on this noir imitation.
