Brad Armstrong's acting is fine as an egotistical illusionist in this okay Wicked release directed by Randy Spears.
Problem, predictably, is with Cash Markman's corny screenplay, woefully lacking in suspense and loaded with stiff dialogue. Brad's execution of an attempt at a perfect murder of his cheating wife Katie Morgan, and detective Frank Bukkwyd pursuing him just like Peter Falk in your typical "Columbo" episode clunks along en route to a dull ending.
It's sold as a vehicle for contract star Carmen Hart, but her role as an assistant in Brad's stage act is minor.
All told, a merely okay movie.
