Prisoner of Love

I kept up with this case from the beginning as I don't live far from Florence, Alabama. I feel like the movie does not portray what actually happened. There was a 911 call that provided information as to the states of mind of Vicky and Casey. This was not in the movie. The film took some liberties with the hotel scenes. No one knows what happened except Casey and he's not talking about the private moments they shared.

The real jail is in the middle of the city - not out in the boonies. The acting is subpar. I feel like this is a story that would make a great movie, but this is not that movie.

First, let me say I adore Nicholle Tom and have for years. I thought she did a great accent in this. The acting, though? Well, that's another story. Adam Mayfield is wayyyy too good-looking to play Casey White. He acted totally goofy, which may be the way Casey acted. I didn't sense any good chemistry between the two. The whole tone of the movie,to me, was downright silly and comical. It was SO goofy, in fact, I think it may have been on purpose, poking fun at the real-life pair because they did something so stupid. The sneaky flirting was like 6th grade level stuff, smiling, giggling, just childish. I did give the movie 3 stars because they really nailed Vicky's "tan" and her complexion, AND because some of the other actors were actually good.

I wish big budget movies would be made like that. A lot of talking, but not overtalked. Psychological thriller. Filmmakers think we need action, due to our brains being spoiled by social media, but tha'ts not true, cinema is lacking psychological thrillers, especially those based on true stories. There's plenty of stupid fake stories, while life brings unbelievable scenarios. Anyway, to the movie. I don't think those law grades are fair, the actors are great, the directing is not cringy, this is a really good movie. Also, when you raise the reliability problem, you need to try to undersand the vulnerabillity of a person that is so hunry for love that they stop seeing things rationally. It si a good movie and. Nicolle Tom is fantastic, so is Adam Mayfield.

This movie is so bad I don't even know where to start at. Now, in all fairness the actors were pretty good it was the writing and directing that was just horrible. The story was so boring and blah. Save your time and don't watch this. I promise you'll regret it. This story had so much more to tell and they dropped the ball. The writing was so FLAT THE STORY WAS FLAT. This is based on a true story and it felt like the worst story ever told. Nicholle Tom, was really good and so was Adam Mayfield. This is possibly the worst Lifetime movie ever made. Now I know to stay away from anything directed or written by this cast.

You can tell this movie was made in a rush. Some director wanted to be the first to make a movie about this story and it shows big time here. The acting is absolutely atrocious as I've seen better acting in adult films. Nothing about this movie was even close to the true story and this should of never hit the screens. One day someone will get this story right but as I said this producer was in a huge hurry to get this out. Perhaps they should of told more of Vicky's story ahead of her falling in love with a criminal. Oh another thing, the actors picked for this movie are no where close to representation of the actual real life persons. Especially Casey White. Overall my rating is this.... Horrible, Horrible, Horrible!!!
