You Can Never Go Home Again

This has to be one of the worst movies on lifetime that I have seen in awhile, from the acting, the plot and the actors especially the male lead why would this woman be so obsessed with this man you can't even take him seriously! Please lifetime do better because that was two hours of my life I can never get back.

"You Can Never Go Home Again" (2021)

It's truly shocking how awful this thing is - there are NO redeeming qualities whatsoever. I came here to write a review to warn off future viewers from it and saw that the review by 'hoops' said exactly what I intended to say, especially that it really did seem to be put together by a bunch of third graders and imdb really needs to add zero to the rating scale, etc. If I'd known this crap could actually be bought and produced by a TV network, I'd be a multi-millionaire by now since anyone with half a brain could churn out this rehashed bland talentless drivel.

The 10/10 reviewers here are obviously friends and relatives of the cast and/or producers/directors of this turkey, since any thinking adult could easily see how lame and boring it is, with terrible acting by all. The only credit I'll give it is that Jackie Moore can play a believable psycho, as she also did in a previous LMN-er as a psycho interior decorator. But her role was diminished by the poor, unoriginal storyline and overall mediocrity of the movie.

The background music was out of whack and seemed to be tacked on at the last minute.

Just unbearably dumb and a total waste of time.

Grade F / 1 out of 10.

I have no idea why this movie is titled "You Can Never Go Home Again". This movie has absolutely nothing to do with going home, being at home, staying home or anything home related. Unless you count the fact that they just moved into the home. I also have no ideal why they have the child abandoned on a playground on the cover. The situation between Jack and Emma could have been resolved a lot sooner had he went no contact and reported Emma from the start. This was a horrible movie where there is no plot. And when motives are finally revealed, there still is no plot! The acting is pretty good by Jack, his parents and Jack's co-worker but everybody else (insert side eye meme). I gave this move 3 stars because I did laugh out loud quite a few times. Other than that, this is a complete waste of time. I want better for Omar Gooding.

Truly a terrible movie. Others have said it better than I have so I'll note this instead: March 15th 2022 was an interesting day wasn't it... The only day that this movie had good reviews. 4 in fact. I wonder if it was the mom's of the main characters?

Apparently this review needs to be another 300 characters so I'll give this review more time than the movie is worth by saying that with a bottle of wine (definitely pick a 2 liter not a 750) you might be able to get through it. It's 50/50 but that should give you the best shot. I'll note that the main characters also use random wine bottles to get through this movie so it seems like the movie endorses this strategy as well!

This movie was hilariously bad. Laughed out loud more times than I should have. There is a scene where the teacher gets out of the father's car and she noticeably hits her head on the door and they left it in the movie...my daughter and I couldn't stop laughing. The music is so bad, the plot is bad, the acting is bad..it's all awful. I have no clue why this movie went from being called "Teacher's Watching" to "You Can Never Go Home Again.." the second title doesn't even make sense. I have no idea who financially backs these awful Lifetime movies. If you want a good laugh and a movie to make fun of..this is it.
