Dempsey’s Suburban Hitman Trips Over a Silly Premise

The Hollywood Reporter’s review of Fox’s Memory of a Killer (starring Patrick Dempsey as a suburban hitman whose Alzheimer’s complicates his double life) finds the premise risible and the writing clunky, though Dempsey’s slick performance and Michael Imperioli’s menace add some edge; the Belgian-adapted drama is stylish but ultimately feels more flashy than substantive for a broadcast TV series.
