Missing at 17

This is very emotional and social movie. Focus is on relationships and feelings/emotions. Characters are very talkative, understanding, and honest. There is some action too. Talk is ordinary, but not boring like in many movies. There is no unreal/fake stuff. I think had this movie a bit more details and story, it could be rated 10 stars. Lesson is that we should take care of our friendships and relationships, and live in truth, just like with any other aspect of life. We must be honest, or expect disappointment and other bad things to happen.

I have been both 17 and the mother of birth and adopted children. I find this girl annoying and her mum a bit too much too at times, but she loves her as much as her own. At 17 really is incredibly selfish, narcissistic like a lot of us at that age, but so unaware of others feelings it's incredible. The way she falls into the criminals clutches is laughable. If she's so sophisticated to have sex straight away why is she immature? She says I don't owe these people anything, talking about her adoptive parents. MY GOD how about 17 years of love hard work, and provision. She is a spoiled brat who needs a good kick up the bottom to sort her out. Oh Blah blah there are starving kids in our countries, who get neglected and abused and she has it all, and is so "confused", when there are people all over the world who would kill to be in her shoes. GOD give me strength. Anyway that's a GOOD thing as the films well done and provokes emotions so it's done it's job, and well done beautifully filmed and thought provoking. I'm an artist so if you get a reaction you've done your job. I still want to slap her around the face and tell her to either grow up or go away.

I prefer actors to play parts close to their own age... don't they have any decent teenage actors who can play their own age? Every teenager seems to get played by an actor at least 5 or 6 years older than the part. ''Missing at 17'' was a reasonably good midday movie with a plausible story line.

Missing at 17 was one of the best lifetime movies that I have watched in a long time. I love movies that keep you clued to the couch. And Missing at 17 did that. As we all know lifetime movies are usually based on actual events, but this movie got me very curious at the end. I had to record it so I could watch it again to try to understand it more. I give credit to all the actors and actresses in this movie. In the information summary of what happens when a mother searches desperately to find her missing daughter with the help of her biological mother. They work together to get her away from a criminal. I did not see him as a criminal. It was a very intense movie. It kept me clued to my couch until it was over.

Decent TV movie. Very good acting. If yiu just like to chill and relax then watch it👍
