MURDER 101 is one of the better made-for-TV movies that you'll see. It's a notch above most and one of the few that I will stop and watch when it's on. Frankly, it's one of the best things that Pierce Brosnan has done. I liked him as James Bond, don't get me wrong, but he is really good in MURDER 101. For some reason, Prof. Charles Lattimore resonates with me more than James Bond, I think it's because this character reminds me more of Brosnan's portrayal of the cheeky, mischievous Remington Steele, which I really enjoyed. I feel like Brosnan is more comfortable playing this type of character. Brosnan is his usual charming, slick self and plays the role with his natural slyness and appeal.
MURDER 101 is actually a rather intricate, complex tale of Lattimore (played by Brosnan), who gathered evidence that helped convict his best friend, a doctor, of his wife's murder. He subsequently writes a best seller about it becomes famous. While working on his 2nd book, Charlie takes job at local university to teach class with the same title, Murder 101, as the film. The student's job is to write essay where they plan the perfect murder. While this is going on, actual murders are occurring and Charlie gets himself caught in the thick of it all.
This is a really entertaining movie with a complex plot and tongue-in-cheek style, thanks to the charming Mr. Brosnan. A really nice one to see late at night if you want to be entertained.
