Review of Deception

Deception (I) (2013)
4/10
Do I smell Revenge?
7 January 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Nothing succeeds like imitation. A death in a wealthy family sends in an undercover cop (Meagan Good) to find out who in this rich and powerful family is the guilty party. Every week we will find new secrets about the family (Arrow) and the duplicitous goings on behind the scenes (shades of Downton Abbey). I like Victor Garber who is cast as Robert Bowers the family patriarch but there is nothing new here. Didn't Glenn Close play the same role in Damages? I guess if you are a fan on this genre you may find someone here interesting enough to keep you interested but I keep hoping for something more original but not sure it will be found here. Wait, Meagan Good is a black lead so there is something new and different here after all. Hollywood must believe we are all simple minded.
