My Thoughts:

In this last Hailey Dean movie this May, we pick up at what is going on with Clayton Morrell remember him that got out of prison in the last movie. It didn’t end well for a lot of people but others it did.

As with all mysteries, there are lots of red herrings that kept my family and I guessing throughout the film. It was a crazy movie that threw us for a loop. Until it became clear with who did it after a bit of finding more clues.

This movie is definitely one where you shouldn’t look to the past and keep to the present. If they did, they probably would have caught Clayton doing something else that would have got him sent to jail instead of killed.

Throughout the movie, Fincher was acting weird and Jonas and Hailey couldn’t decide on when was their first date. That was funny to see since they both had different interpretations of when that was.

I thought the acting is superb, love the characters, the mystery is excellent, the subplots and the growth of the characters are phenomenal. The ending is my favorite part. I am looking forward to the next set of Hailey Dean Mysteries. But until then, if you haven’t seen Killer Sentence you should.
