Una extraña en la familia

Horrible horrible horrible movie !!!!! Terrible acting, terrible script, terrible everything, terrible movie

Bad, just terrible. Really the rating should be a 0 Spoiler alert, this movie sucks!

I mean, do we expect anything else with Lifetime movies? If you have selected to watch this title you should have a good idea of what you're getting yourself into.

The dialogue/ writing is thoroughly cliche from beginning to end The acting is cringey at best, *especially* the youngest daughter, but we give her a pass because she's cute and still young Lily and Maddie are watchable, especially with Maddie's dimples and baby blue eyes The best friend patrick looks like a wannabe boy band member who was dressed in his dad's old clothes, but, I guess that's the look now. Lastly, what kind of teenager has a room like that? it looks like it was furnished by goodwill in 2000's chic.

As far as the story goes, it delivers in that it entertained me for an hour or so on a sunday afternoon on the first snow of the season.

This is a lifetime movie so not much is expected. I've seen better lifetime movies than this though. It was almost comical even though it's a "thriller". I literally laughed out loud at some of the acting and scenarios. It was entertaining even if the plot was cliché.

I wish they wouldn't keep giving them different names in the UK. If they called it "The Wrong Stepmother", I would have known instantly not to watch it. I liked Cindy Busby in Heartland as Ashley but in this she was terrible. And, what was Corin Nemec doing in it? Surely he could have found a better role than this.

And why do they keep giving Vivica A Fox top billing when she only plays a cameo, (and I'm grateful that it was only a cameo)? Her acting is appalling. The too good to be true expressions are so bad they are almost funny, but not quite. She's always the same in every bad movie she does. Estate Agent, Detective, Teacher, but all with the same holier than thou expressions. Yuk. I hope this isn't what we have to expect from any new movie from now on. I'm part way through and I'll probably have to keep watching now. Why, I have no idea. Pretty obvious what the outcome will be.
