Murder Is Easy (1982 TV Movie)
4/10
Atmospheric but bland
7 April 2023
Nice scenery in this uneven adaption with the quaint English village backdrop nicely captured.

Unfortunately that's about the only thing the film has going for it with some terrible performances (worst is Bill Bixby, very wooden and playing a somewhat unlikely romantic lead) bad scripting in parts and too much emphasis on a soppy developing romantic love story between Bixby and Leslie Anne Down.

This is a modern update with Bixby taking on the role of lead sleuth as an American computer programmer on holiday in England who gets mixed up in a serious of mysterious deaths in a small village.

Could have been an enjoyable murder mystery with more focus on the murders and village life but this one falls a long way short.
