Swept Under Trailers

Meet Morgan. At first glance, she's just your average cleaning lady. She has no problem getting her hands dirty, which is a good thing considering it's not fancy houses she cleans for a living - it's gruesome crime scenes. It's at one of these scenes that Morgan discovers a key piece of evidence overlooked by the forensics team. This, and her knack for reading blood splatter, catch Nick's attention, a newbie detective working the case. The pair soon become unofficial partners on what's become a stream of related murders and the closer they get to solving the mystery the closer they get to each other. But while they succeed in getting a confession from their primary suspect, their feelings for each other risk blinding them to the truth and they find themselves dangerously close to the real killer.

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
laineandrews Caught this on late night TV. Beginning was intriguing enough to stop me dialing around. The two leads were good actors, but then the plot holes began after the twist. The rookie homicide detective and supposedly upstanding moralist turned out to be a pretty poor detective and a hypocrite when it came to ethics. Spoilers After basically deputizing the cleaning lady as his helper he made the morally questionable decision of treating her as his girlfriend, then continued to blab to her about the case he's trying to resolve using police resources. He can't even put two and two together when his police badge goes missing temporarily and a suspect who insisted on seeing the badge before unlocking his door is killed at home without forced entry. And perhaps the "bad" cops he ratted on in his back story might have something to say about his letting a known serial murderer go after insisting he'd turn his own mother in if she broke the law. But of course, he wasn't sleeping with his mother....
phd_travel A crime scene cleaner (remember Amy Adams in Sunshine Cleaners) is god at piecing together crimes from her experience. A new homicide investigator enlists her help and they fall in love. There is a nice chemistry between the leads Devin Kelly and Aaron Ashmore. The crime involves the world of classical music which is a bit different. There is an unexpected twist in the middle I didn't see coming and a feel good satisfying ending. Worth a watch.
Desertman84 Devin Kelley, Aaron Ashmore and Stephen Bogaert stars in this Canadian TV movie entitled "Swept Under". This television film which is also known by the title "Maid For Murder" tells the story of a serial murder that is being committed secretly by a crime-scene cleaner Morgan which is being investigate by a rookie detective named Nick.Too bad that being a rookie does not help Nick at all as he struggles to find the serial killer.But in the end,he found an evidence which led to Morgan.Decisions were made at the end as we get to realize why Morgan committed those murders and how Nick reacted to the situation especially when she was about to escape.Personally,I consider it a better-than-average TV movie.It was nice to see great performances from Devine Kelly and Aaron Ashmore as Morgan and Nick respectively.Also,it does not hang on to clichés and predictability which TV movies are accustomed to.Finally,the conclusion would also make the viewers think particularly when Nick allowed Morgan to leave as he was overcome by his feelings for her rather than the nature of his job as a detective.
wes-connors After police investigators collect evidence, attractive Devin Kelley (as Morgan Sher) cleans up crime scenes. Possessing a strong stomach and gag reflex, Ms. Kelly is able to mop up excessive human blood and squeegee splattered brains off windows. She cleans up well. Kelly is on the job when she meets likewise attractive homicide detective Aaron Ashmore (as Nick Hopewell). He also looks sexy in one of those neatly trimmed beards so popular in "Lifetime" TV movies today. He and she are mutually attracted, but Kelly has a hinted-at history of relationship problems. Due to her experience, Kelly is able to figure out how a bloody murder happened, by surveying the crime scene. She agrees to help Mr. Ashmore on his first case, but tells him no dating while they work together... When the case turns out to be a serial killer, how long can they keep from playing hide the pistol? For most of the first half, this is a very engaging movie. Director Michel Poulette works exceptionally well delivering the story, by Doug Barber and James Phillips; he manages his co-stars with skill. Obviously, Kelly and Ashmore have the kind of chemistry that could sustain a TV series, or more movies. The story wisely keeps them out of bed for a sustained period of time. This is the secret appeal of many screen team-ups (and buddy movies); after they do it, we're done. The second half of the unfortunately titled "Swept Under" aka "Maid for Murder" is interesting, but much less satisfying. The co-starring couple are shifted from murder mystery to near horror. To their credit, they and Mr. Poulette keep you interested through an uncomfortable tone shift and choppy ending. ***** Swept Under/Maid for Murder (12/6/2015) Michel Poulette ~ Devin Kelley, Aaron Ashmore, Stephen Bogaert, Brett Ryan
