Bland and vanilla characters that are very predictable with meh acting. Characters are one dimensional, definitely didn't feel invested in any part of this very mediocre movie. I think the worst offender is the male detective - I hated his intentional pauses. His acting is horrible. The storyline is unimpressive. Feels like Lifetime movie - hard to believe I used to think they were entertaining. Save your time and skip it. One hour and a half hours of life I cannot get back. And why does this review need to be so long. I really don't think the movie deserves to have six hundred characters written about it.

"Good Wife's Guide to Murder" follows Lenore, a podcaster who specializes in wives killing their husbands and teaches people how they can get away with it. One day she finds her husband dead and she naturally becomes the prime suspect. Being a Tubi original , I naturally had very low expectations for this film. The thing was, despite some cringy dialogue, this film did have some things going for it. Most performances were decent for this type of thing. Shaun Benson stood out as the cop investigating the murder. Things really fall apart after the initial set up. First-her lawyer and her agent are the same person which I think happened because they couldn't afford another actor. The plot conveniences drive the entire story forward, there are so many tired cliches scattered throughout it will make your head spin. You have your standard crosses, double crosses and twists but none of them felt earned or even made sense based on the characterization they had set up. I also found the ending to be extremely obvious and would imagine most people will as well. It wasn't even fun to play along and figure it out because so much of it felt so random. Overall I think the writer completely missed on what makes these movies fun for people. While some performances are fun in their own way, terrible dialogue, plot devices and originality make this movie a hard skip.

Directed by Max McGuire (who like any director of the streaming era has a split between horror and holiday movies in his resume) and written by Ellen Huggins (The Ex Obsession), this is the story of Kate Kelsey (Nola Martin) whose husband Matt (Liam Toobin) is killed and because she has a popular vlog - A Good Wife's Guide to Murder - she becomes the prime suspect that the police are investigating. After all, they owned a restaurant called Mendaville together, he may have been having an affair and, yes, every episode of her show she breaks down her ten rules for killing your husband and getting away with it. Adding to the conflict is the fact that Lenore (Tenille Read), the wife of investigating detective Peter Thompson (R Austin Ball), is more than just best friends with the Kelseys. She might have been getting even closer to Matt than she's letting on. Matt was getting around, also sleeping with an employee named Lisa (Zenna Davis-Jones) who is killed moments after that secret is let out. Can Kate and her assistant Brit (Bukola Ayoka) figure out who did it? And was it someone close to her, like Brit? Or her former best friend who had a whole trunk of sex toys that she was using with her husband? What about her combination lawyer and PR guy who was bullied by her husband in high school? Or is it...someone else? Of all the recent Tubi movies, I think this is one of the better ones I've seen. I loved how it played with the conventions of true crime. Also: I live with someone who watched Forensic Files on an endless 24 hour repeating cavalcade of dead husbands, so I fully know there is no way I will survive any of this. So I relate as I laugh and enjoy what I watched.

It is easy to tell the difference between a Coke and a Diet Coke, just as it is easy to tell the difference between a Bud and a Bud Lite. In the case of this movie, it would best be described as Thriller Lite. A shortcoming of the film was that literally any one of the characters could be the murderer of Matt, the husband of podcaster Kate. Her popular program entitled "A Good Wife's Guide to Murder" resulted in her being the primary suspect when her husband died. There followed a patchwork of clues that led nowhere until the secret was revealed in the denouement. Another problem was that Matt seemed like a very decent guy in the early scenes. But after his demise, nearly all of the characters had something derogatory to say about poor Matt. The secondary roles did not seem very well developed. They included two detectives, one of which was the best friend of Kate and a suspect herself. The result was a shallow narrative pattern and a set of cardboard characters. The film seemed so predictable and light-hearted that the only possible outcome for this experience was a tall glass of Thriller Lite.
