5.0 out of 5 stars
top notch thriller, August 16, 2010
This review is from: Traces of Red (DVD)
One hell of a thriller with more twists than a cork screw. A well crafted movie with a fine cast. Not drenched in dark photography like many of today`s films. A good marriage between the music and the film, in that it complemented rather than obstructed the story. Music by Graeme Revell, released in 2002.

Something different, April 10, 2010
This review is from: Traces of Red (DVD)
This movie is interesting and plenty of suspense as to who did what. I enjoyed this movie as different to the others and is worth buying and keeping. James Belushi plays an excellent part and suits him down to his toes. I enjoyed the other shows of hes and I must say some roles make you feel your right there with him.

still worth a look, May 6, 2009
This review is from: Traces of Red (DVD)
While the killer in this plot has gotten himself a little confused between 'The Lipstick Killer' and 'The Zodiac', he seems to be the only character with a defined direction. Belushi, obviously out of his comfort zone, plays the kind of detective you pray will never be investigating your murder unless your goal is to be an unsolved mystery! Bracco on the other hand does seem to understand her character, unfortunately not how to play her.
The plot is totally predictable if you can manage to stay focused on it, but still mildly entertaining if you can ignore the bad casting decisions. With that said, it's one beacon of light comes from the highly underrated Faye Grant whos role is far too small to save the movie as a whole. Perhaps in Bracco's role we'd have a whole new ballgame!
If you're looking for a steamy, edge of your seat thriller, keep looking, but if you just want a little diversion from reality for awhile, let Faye Grant show you how to steal a scene with this one!
