Girl in the Shed: The Kidnapping of Abby Hernandez

I've seen better acting in dramatic re-enactment shows on ID Channel. It's laughable.

Corey Matthews, what the hell man. Dumbfounded.

Are we seriously supposed to believe this 30 year old woman with bags the size of Texas under her eyes is actually a 14 year old child??

I'm sure there is a stellar dateline episode on this story that would blow this dumpster fire of a "movie" right outta the solar system.

Anyone associated with this train wreck should be blacklisted and lose their SAG card immediately.

Let's see... how many other ways can I insult this deplorable production until I meet the character limi...

This movie does not seem like an abduction movie at all it seems like a friendship everyone in the movie besides the girl who plays Abby cannot act for s*** it's the worst lifetime movie I've ever seen in my life poorly put together not worth the watch about to turn it off right now and I'm only 20 minutes into it. The real Abby Hernandez who went through this horrible ordeal should have been given a better movie than this. The movie tries to be suspenseful but it's not and I'm almost falling asleep watching this movie worst worst worst movie ever been Savage what happened to you you can't act for s***

I had high hopes for this movie. I really thought it would portray what the actual victim went through. The movie really did Abby a disservice. The movie doesn't show any sexual assault. No we don't need to see this in detail but they didn't even hint at it. There was one scene where she got shocked but other than that it the movie makes it like she was just abducted and friends with her abductor. We know she acted like his friend to plan her escape but the movie massively fails on what the victim actually went through. I would rather just have watched a documentary about it. This film was pointless to watch and kind of boring.

A mild movie that may not be true to the core and Abby's ordeal, but is nevertheless well-acted with gripping moments.

It flows well, is emotional enough, has some weak filler moments, doesn't depict the whole truth, obviously viewers are mad about it as to the real ordeal that Abby went through and I understand them.

Somehow and for some reasons it is depicted as such and that's the fault of everybody involved in the movie besides the cast. Foremost the studio that led the writers.

The emotional and psychological abuse are toned down so much that it almost appears like a friendship. There is no indication of sexual abuse at all which completely removes the harrowing experienced the victim endured. The only point of interest was the mother's ordeal in dealing with the FBI. Taming the experience so much does such a huge disservice to such a frightening abduction. How could the real victim have been involved with this presentation?
