Killer Heat is a 2024 noir thriller directed by Philippe Lacôte and based on Jo Nesbø's short story The Jealousy Man. The film stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Nick Bali, a private investigator, alongside Shailene Woodley and Richard Madden. Set against the sun-drenched Greek island of Crete, the story follows Nick as he delves into the mysterious death of Leo Vardakis, unraveling deep-seated family rivalries, deceit, and jealousy.
Despite its strong cast and picturesque setting, the movie has received largely negative reviews. Critics cite its tedious dialogue, over-the-top twists, and lack of genuine suspense as major flaws. While the performances, especially by Gordon-Levitt, have been acknowledged as competent, the film struggles to bring depth to its central themes and ends up feeling formulaic and uninspired. Overall, Killer Heat has been described as a forgettable entry in the mystery genre
