I watched this film a few nights ago and found it OK, but nothing special. Alexandra Paul plays Stacy a lawyer, who gets a phone call telling her that her sister has been murdered. She then returns to the area where she had been raised and where her sister was killed and keeps meeting various people who she knew in her past. Stacy later finds out that her sister had been advertising herself on Adult Dating sites, therefore, with the help of her friend Lauren, she decides to do the same thing to see if she can find out who the killer is. A dangerous game to play. If you have a couple of hours to spare then give it a look, but do not expect too much.

I thought this sounded an interesting idea but any hopes I had for this movie quickly evaporated within the first horrendously amateur opening scene. Unfortunately it didn't improve, having a horrible 1980's vibe to it throughout. There is some rank bad acting in this epitomised by the lead Alexandra Paul who is simply dreadful and whose strangely muscular arms shown throughout the film are off putting. The rest of the cast don't fare any better with wooden stilted performance after performance. The dialogue at times is just downright laughable. The subject matter of sex sites is seedy but I suppose it highlights some of the dangers the sad losers who use them face. Murder.Com just doesn't ring true on any level and if the acting and script aren't bad enough you also have to put up with a truly dreadful soundtrack. I was hoping at least for a decent ending but sadly you don't even get this, just an ending as lame as the rest of the film.Murder.com is low budget but really there is no excuse for producing a movies as bad as this. I don't normally like giving films 1/10, and solely on the basis I at least managed to sit through it all, I'll give it a generous 2/10.Avoid with all your might.

When i first heard about the film, i expected it to be quite interesting, and with a title like "murder.com" i also expected it to have a lot more tense moments and it to be a lot more interesting than it was. It wasn't the worst film i've ever seen, that award goes to The Village, but i think this film comes in a close second. Personally i thought to describe the film as a "thriller" was entirely misleading, as i found the film quite boring. There is no action and she spends most of the film investigating her sisters murder, and nothing really of interest happens right until the very end, and even then, the action lasts all of about 3 minutes. I found the film quite confusing as well. Some things were not explained and it left you guessing at the end, which was quite irritating. Couldn't really compare it to any film i've seen before. Reminded me slightly of Erin Brockovitch, taking an investigation into her own hands, but that is all, the storyline is quite different. I wouldn't personally recommend this film, as i didn't enjoy it at all, and i certainly would not class this film as a "thriller".

With 22 votes, 19 of them giving a wonderful 10/10 and the other three trying to redress the balance with 1/10, there is some vote-rigging going on here. This is NOT a 10/10 movie... (not even by the wildest stretch of the imagination) maybe the system needs to be fixed, because posting an overall rating based on such obvious manipulation of a relatively low sampling will make people waste their time (and money)... and only serve to devalue IMDb's reputation.The movie itself is a pot-boiler. It's OK if you've got time on your hands. It's not going to win any awards or go any way to enhance the reputations of the cast and crew... but it's OK if you've got nothing better planned (like cleaning the grout in the shower). To put the voting in perspective, Netflix voters gave it a 3.3/5 for about the same number of voters... the only critic review listed gave it 1/5 ...Allowing the system to be gamed devalues the whole rating system. Automatically flagging patterns like this is such an easy thing to do, and is absolutely not a difficult code implementation... any code monkey worth his salt will knock it out in ten minutes.Clean house please.
