It is a performances centric movie

Excellent, a Must See

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This is not the type of movie that is easily explained, mainly because it is so bizarre and unpredictable. Character development is good, and the characters are interesting and colorful. "Sweet Killing" opens like an episode of "Columbo", but soon spirals way beyond a foolproof murder plan. It's nice to see Michael Ironside playing a cop for a change, and Anthony Higgins, F. Murray Abraham, and Leslie Hope all are quite good. There is at least a bunch of uncomfortable male groveling by Higgins, and an extra measure of bitchiness by Hope. Other than an abrupt and somewhat unsatisfying ending, "Sweet Killing" is totally acceptable entertainment. - MERK

Henpecked husband (Higgins) devises an ingenious plot to rid himself of his large, loud overbearing wife without implicating himself. But instead of freeing him, the murder sets off a chain of weird events that cause his life to become a living hell of anxiety. A detective (ironically played by Ironside) is relentless in pursuing his suspicion that our winsome "hero" is guilty. The fictitious client "Zargo" (Abraham)literally moves in on him like a hallucination taking over his life, causing him to quarrel with his less than obliging new mistress (Bishop). Will any or all of these people drive him mad enough to confess? Viewers are sure to be drawn into this clever and unusual mystery concoction wondering what will happen to the desperate killer so engagingly played by Anthony (Corlan) Higgins with many surprises along the way.

Adam is obsessed with comic books and fantasizes about killing his wife Louise in the ways comic book villains might have. Louise doesn't seem to care about anything except watching her classic comedies on TV--and I don't blame her. I probably would have enjoyed those too, even though we didn't get to see that much of what she liked so much.Meanwhile, a mysterious character named Zargo is obsessed with meeting Adam. In the process of trying to meet Zargo, he find's Eva's apartment, and a potential romance begins.I really liked Eva. I wasn't particularly impressed with murder Rube Goldberg style, but it could have been exciting in the right hands. Zargo was quite a character.The process of solving the murder was nothing really special but pretty good. It was an okay movie.

I rented "Sweet Killing" a year ago. I didn't know if i'd like the film but I did. I give it 4 of 5 stars. I film is about a middle edged man , Adam Cross (Anthony Higgins) , a hard working business man . Except he has one problem , his annoying wife. Living in a world of comics and fiction , he decides to kill his shrewish wife , and make it look like a brake in murder. He goes threw with his plan , and it goes fine , until he meets the love of his life (played by Leslie Hope) , and a couple of crooked cops (Canadian actors Aron Tager , and Michael Ironside) who will go to any lengths to get this guy blamed for the murder. Suddenly what Adam thought would be his escape from torture turns into a "no-exit" highway to Hell.I have to say that this is an interesting story , with a great cast(Michael Ironside , Anthony Higgins , and "Are You Afraid Of The Dark's" Aron Tager) and a good plot. Since I am a big fan of canadian films.
