Alibi

Rating:
Summary: Suspended disbelief required
Review: This is a suspense-horror type program. It is based on the old adage that once we deceive a web we weave. The general theme of the video is the unraveling of the alibi of a murderer.

There are many unrealistic aspect of the program that will irritate detective story fans. For me it was the characters having totally wrong actions. There is this older man who has the skills to start and run a business. There is a young woman who is not very smart and therefore has a job in a a government agency answering simple questions from the public on the telephone.

After the first 15 minutes setting up the situation they behave oppositely. The man becomes stupid and allows the woman to exercise superb crises leadership skills over him. She suddenly becomes an expert on police investigation procedures and accounting. I wondered if she had these skills why she did not have a job as a manager at a commercial company. Another example of the numerous problems that will insult the intelligence of an adult is a police investigation of a car crash. They pronounce it an accident in spite of no skid marks and the transmission being in neutral.

There are many other examples of this unrealistic nature of the video. Again, horror and suspense fans will probably not be bothered by them.
