Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
It's easy to identify the biggest attraction of Killing Me Softly: two fetching actors (Heather Graham, Joseph Fiennes) and lots of nudity--especially in the unrated version. It's harder to choose the bigger liability: the dialogue howlers (as Fiennes binds Graham in ropes, she says, "Sometimes I feel like I don't know you") or the incredibly obvious solution to the big mystery. The story is an unofficial update of Hitchcock's Suspicion: a new wife wonders whether her unbelievably charismatic husband might be a murderer. The Chinese filmmaker Chen Kaige (Farewell My Concubine) turns out to be exactly the wrong director for this overheated slice of l'amour fou in London, but with the hopeless pairing of Graham and Fiennes as the passionate lovers, he didn't have much of a chance. A nicely romantic Patrick Doyle score is the only reason not to hit the Mute button and enjoy the visuals. --Robert Horton

4 out of 5 stars 4 Stars for a Heather Graham fan........2007-03-20

Yes, just if you really like Heather Graham it is worth 4 stars. This is part of that weird generation of movies with famous Hollywood actresses (Nicole Kidman, Meg Ryan, Halle Berry, etc being NAKED on screen, and by naked I also mean strong sexual situations, not only a shower peek. On the other hand this movie lacked a good Director and it looks like a TV movie or at best a Cinemax production.

4 out of 5 stars Watch it with the sound off¡¡¡.......2006-11-26

Heather is unbeliveble: a beeeeauty, and a good actress. A real strawberry. On the other side is Joseph Finnies. Joseph. Yeap. He's one of the worst actors I ever seen, I can't belive it, seems like a joke, a bad one. A real banana.
The movie is horrible, don't have any sense, the plot seems to be wright by a stupid. But you could watch it without sleep because Heather, who worth the four stars by herself.

3 out of 5 stars HO-HUM.......2006-09-02

A sufficiency of steam, but far from one of Zalman King's best. I agree that the story line was pretty weak.

5 out of 5 stars killing me softly.......2006-07-27

it was great and i recommend it tp people who love passion movies

4 out of 5 stars NICE!!!.......2006-04-05

"Killing Me Softly" is one of those movies that you can't help but like despite the uneven plot and silly twists that come with this kind of movie. Not made for serious film watchers and critics, this movie is more for the MTV generation and is in the same league of "Wild Things" and "Cruel Intentions".
However, as perverted as this may sound, this film easily features some of the best sex scenes ever to be captured in a commerical film. Heather Graham plays Alice. Alice is an American living in England who designs websites and CD roms for a living and lives with Jake. She loves Jake and feels comfortable around him, but overall she's not satisfied. Then in a few seconds her life changes. While crossing a street, she catches the eye of Adam (Joseph Fiennes) and before they've barely uttered a word they're at his apartment having passionate sex. Soon after, she leaves Jake and moves in with Adam and soon after that...She marries him. Everything's great for a while, until disturbing things begin to happen. She recieves letters, meets a woman who claims that Adam raped her, and finds letters from a lover of Adam's who has disappeared. If you have any knowledge of movies, you can pretty much see where this is going. Wife is scared of husband and tries to unravel whether her husband really is a murderer and is simply not satisfied with what she finds, so she delves deeper into the mystery only to discover something a bit more disturbing. Simply insert a couple different names and you have a story that (for the most part) has been told several times before. But, I hate to admit it but I did like this movie and it was worth the 96 minutes I spent watching it. While it's not a classic piece of cinema, it's entertaining. B+
