Swept Under (2015 TV Movie)
2/10
Ludicrous Plot Twist Ruins Promising Story
23 March 2021
Another example of a third-rate, low-budget made-for-TV movie from Canadian production company Incendo. Despite fine performances by the lead actors Devin Kelley (crime scene cleaner) and Aaron Ashmore (homicide detective), the film is destroyed midway through when an absurd plot twist undermines the narrative. Rather than describing the event which would be the ultimate spoiler, it is better to advise potential viewers to avoid this TV movie that has been churned out as a purely commercial product to play in markets as filler to be shown at 2 am on Bulgarian TV.

But perhaps what is most disappointing is that there was interesting chemistry between the two leads and that is what draws audiences to follow an otherwise routine murder investigation drama. But any viewer identification with the budding romance between Morgan and Nick is utterly destroyed by the truly sophomoric plot twist. Sad!
