surprisingly good for a TV movie, 18 July 2002
7/10
Author: Mickey Knox (alwaysmetallica@k.ro) from Brasov, Romania

I didn't have high expectations from this one. But i was wrong. Dead In A Heartbeat is a very good movie, considering it was made for tv only, with low budget and not too good actors.

The story is tempting, original and interesting. Yes, the script has some cliches, and yes, some lines are stupid, and yes, the actors do seem out of their place sometimes. But that doesn't change the overall feeling of a good movie. It's fast paced, original, well directed and well edited.

Vote: 7 out of 10.
