You Can't Take My Daughter

With states now limiting if not outright stripping women's abortion rights the argument of choosing to abort a rape child is rather murky. I think this film is extremely relevant today as it points out complicated issues faced by women who have had rights altered without consideration.

Can't give the film a really high mark because it descends into some rather unlikely scenarios and a sadly horrible appearance by Kirstie Alley who plays something of a clueless, stereotyped character that really subtracts from the plot.

It's a subject that is now relevant however the movie could've handled it much more intelligently.

Why this got low scores from viewers I have no clue. It was realistic, kept me riveted and well worth watching. After 2 years of seeing mindless crap on afternoon TV when us elderly have had nothing else to watch how refreshing to have something really good. More please.

The story this movie told was significant. Strength through heartache and a chance to change the world. We felt like we were at the theater, rather than at home, watching the story unfold. The writing was wonderful, and the lead actress showed fierce resolve and vulnerability in a believable way.

William and Sharon Clifford

I'm a fan of Lyndsy Fonseca but she didn't act well here. The way she delivered her lines sounded trite and silly for the subject matter. Kirstie Allie seemed like a caricature of a bad mom and she spoiled the scenes she was in.

The handling of the rape wasn't great. Showed how bad the system was but it seemed too much. The point was to highlight the ability of rapists to be involved in the lives of their children produced by rape. And it's a worthy topic but the handling was amateurish.

Not great.

Lifetime needs to make more movies like this. Great acting and great story. Not "cheesy" or bad actors like so many of their other movies. It's hard to believe that this actually happened. Definitely worth watching!
