“Unrequited” (** out of four) was a slick but shallow, empty suspense psychodrama about a hotel maid (Zulay Henao) with a dark past who falls in love with a co-worker (Flex Alexander); they immerse themselves in a steamy and erotic affair but this soon leads to a series of consequences of duplicity and deception that makes them and everyone around them second-guess one another. Directed with some style and suave flair by Chris Stokes but is hampered by its routine script and storyline. Never rises above the mire but is better-than-most of its kind.
