Review of A Lovely Way to Die

Theme song and music are very time specific. The hard boiled cop character is over the top including the serial womanizing. The embezzlement crime and all the cover ups are ludicrous. The murder mystery is ultimately resolved but by then the trial is over the the 'femme fatale' is already found not guilty of her husband's murder. The final rescue including a superfluous helicopter chase and some unbelievable pistol shooting to solve the underlying crime is not credible. Oh by the way, Kirk is driving a Cougar and not a Mustang like the other review states. There is no car chase like Bullet and Kirk's character is no Dirty Harry, the feel is more like the period's spy or espionage films.
