I will not say much other than to say I was roped into watching this incredibly amateurish travesty. Although some films never portray real law enforcement work properly, this one goes above and beyond the call of duty to prove that: A. The writers and director have never met a police officer in their lives B. Some Canadian productions live down to our expectations from the 1970s C. Michael Ironsides still had a film commitment to finishIncredibly weak plot, no dramatic moments,insipid action scenes, and a robotic portrayal of a policewoman by someone who may some day be the best actress ever to appear on radio. At least there she will be able to lull us to sleep in the wee hours.The best thought is that if I can track down a DVD of this movie, it will make pretty flames in my fire pit.I will not say avoid it, because then people will seek it out and watch it...beware...dry heaves can hurt.
... View MoreOK this movie is so bad!! Natalie Zea is a detective that has her boyfriend (detective like her) killed by a serial killer that she has been hunting...then the guy is in jail for like 5 minutes until he escapes so easily that you couldn't believe it, and kidnapped the daughter of a powerful senator!! the acting is so terrible, this girl Natalie is like a supermodel trying so hard to act like a tough cop girl, but of course she poses for the camera all the time, and the tight shirts and pants, high heels...she moans for her beloved boyfriend for like 2 minutes and then she looks perfect! there are so many ridiculous situations in this movie, let's name a few of themthe serial killer is so miscast, it's like a high school dude trying to act and look bad but failing so miserably! - the senator's girl kidnapped is suppose to be a sport multi-medalist boat rower, but the girl look chubby and no sign of an athletic body at all, wtf!!! - the mother of the kidnapper ask Natalie not to kill her son, and she mentions the issue to his partners... and no one understands why this woman want to protect this serial killer!!! well, maybe because is HIS MF MOM you morons!!!!! - Our cop girl gets her head smashed with a large glass vase and then shot twice from a very short distance, but she escapes almost harmless!! wtf is she robocop or what? - the kidnapper is caught by our girl, she crawls at him BUT...instead of put the gun in his head, she prefer to yell at him from a distance pointing the gun at him, BUT... while she point the gun at him, he release the chains of the kidnapped girl, take his gun out and place behind her pointing the gun at her head!!!!!!! and she does nothing!!! and the cherry on top, her partner came to the scene also pointing a gun at the killer but from a different angle, so they have the guy absolutely trapped OK? no, because our girl decide to throw her gun to the floor to persuade the killer to release the girl!!!!!!Guys please avoid this piece of crap!!
... View MoreNatalie Zea's movie career appears to be taking off, this being one of several that would seem to explain her absence from most of season 3 of TV's "Justified," a series in which she gets above-the-title billing. Still, it's not a tough choice between playing the ex-wife on a TV series vs. the chance to star in your own movie, even if it's a made-for-TV one.BURDEN OF EVIL is a mostly run-of-the-mill thriller. What distinguishes it from others is its star, Natalie Zea, who's always a ten (okay, maybe a nine) in my book, along with a few (okay, maybe a couple) surprise twists in the plot. (The identity of the perp is not one of them.) Zea plays Caitlyn Conner, the distaff half of a married couple, both detectives. Caitlyn has clearly had martial arts training, apparent by the way she handles two overly-aggressive drunks, in separate scenes.The basic plot is outlined in the Storyline section on the front page of this title. The main deficiency, in my opinion, is the inter-agency tension between the FBI and local police, a device used in way too many cop stories.Without giving anything away, I'll say that, despite some unsatisfactory directions taken along the way, thanks to the aforementioned plot twists, the tale comes to a satisfying conclusion.
... View MoreSo 10 minutes into the show, 80 lb Kate attacks and twists the arm of a beefed-up 220lb man who annoys her on the street. Then he lays on the hood of a car for about 10 seconds because she really hurt him so bad..What a joke! I hate when movies do such unbelievable stuff.It gets better. She gets hit on the head with a big glass vase that shatters into pieces and shot 2 times. Not a cut on her face. Then she is such a superwoman that she goes right into a car chase and drives great. For about three seconds she acts like she has a concussion; then her face never has a trace of pain again and she is normal and completely focused. Runs out of the car completely fine.Then she's completely forgiving of the person who murdered her husband - practically emotionless. She then shows more agitation and anger when the murderer of her husband is shot. RIDICULOUS!
