Murder RX

"Murder RX" (2020) begins with the feel of a decent, entertaining film about a single mom, well educated and professional manner, - aptly played by Ana Alexander - raising her somewhat troubled high school daughter, aptly played by Naomi Grossman. It seem daddy has run off, leaving the two to struggled in an unappealing urban setting.

To seek a fresh start, mom moved the family to a suburban community, where mom finds work as a doctor's assistant. Dr. Rivera, played by Damian Castro, is apparently involved in a prescription drug scheme, or so it seems.

The deama unfolds as mom, daughter, other high school friends, Dr. Rivera, and local law enforcement weave dramatic crime thriller.

The issue I have is the amateurish acting and directing. It's worse than I've seen in a long time; indeed, even Hallmark's worse-made films could not natch this one, with its weak storyline and cliche denouncement. This is one to avoid.
