Girl in Room 13

Bitter sweet considering,was one of the last tv projects of Anne's before her death.

That being said.. She didn't seem healthy,was it just me feeling this?

Granted was portraying a frantic mom,but seemed more substance induced.

Was a difficult subject matter that was portrayed,all the cast was decent enough.

I'm surprised the parents didn't go to the news channel,have the one social media savvy daughter post online & so forth.. It wasn't until many days later,they finally put up posters after the authorities didn't do much.

Felt maybe the storyline was lacking some context,but most of the acting carried things ok.. The previews made it more compelling.

Unfortunately have seen other movies,that brought said topic to light better.

Not a film interested in watching,again.. Despite Anne(RIP)being in it.

I got through about 6 minutes of this movie and I think that was too long. The acting is horrible. I hate to speak ill of the dead, but Anne Heche overacts and seems spastic. I don't know why they paired her with a man who looks half her age and she looks like his mother. There is absolutely no chemistry and their relationship as husband and wife is not believable at all. Her hairdresser either did an awful job on her hair or she just didn't bother to comb it. It looked unkempt. I know this is based on a true story. But this story needed better actors. I think Otis the dog is the best actor in the entire cast.

I had no idea who was in the movie when I started watching. Typical low budget tv movie producing. The odd thing was that after an hour, I was befuddled by the mother character. While I couldn't fault the actress' passion, her addled, frantic approach at first seemed like wild overacting, but after a while, seemed more like the antics of a drug addict... ironic since the movie is about a former addiction daughter. She didn't play distressed mother, she played... brain fried druggie. That's when I looked up the info on the channel info and saw it was Anne Heche. Wow... you can see how far gone she was... life intruding on art. The other actors actually seem surprisingly good, and they simply... act normally around Heche's crazy frantic acting.

I don't know why everybody seems to be down on Anne Heche for her role in this movie. I thought she did a great job portraying a mother who is frantically looking for her daughter and not getting help from the law. I wish though that they would've had, a bit more information in the movie about just how bad sexual trafficking really is. I did not like the fact that at the end of the movie they did not say what happened to the guy Richie or her so-called ex coworker Red. It's disgusting that women would be involved in something as terrible as sex trafficking, but hey, I guess money is all that matters to them. Besides the one rape scene at the beginning of the movie when Richie first took her into the hotel, I was a bit surprised that they did not show more men coming into her room, though usually the man who abducts the female is usually the one that will continually keep raping her over a period of days to break them down. Often those other guys are involved in the emotional, mental and sexual breakdown of the victim until they are sold. I don't know if that's why some people were disappointed in the movie, I'd hate to think that that was the reason. I know this is based on a true story, and I don't know how often the mother or the stepfather kept contacting the police, but the movie did seem like it was more about the mothers search for her daughter. I know that often hotels/motels are involved in covering up such a terrible thing, as well as other industries, and I don't know why more of a focus is not put on finding and helping victims. There are so many men that are such pedophiles and sexual perverts it is so disgusting, I sometimes wonder if there are vigilante people out there that take matters into their own hands because you sure don't hear about them.

This movie might be based on a true story, but like someone else said, the plot was poorly executed! The acting was terrible and every scene was predictable. There were a couple scenes where the victim could have easily escaped and it was like a bad horror movie. Instead of signaling for help or running away, she runs 20 feet and hides. Anne Heche made some great movies throughout her career and I can't believe she starred in this garbage.

Lifetime and Hallmark must have strict shooting schedules and a quota to produce so many movies a year. They need to slow their roll and start producing more quality content.

I cant believe I gave up prime time Halloween movie watching for this.
