Un secret de famille impardonnable

I ended up FF to the climax. This movie was so dull, so lacking in suspense, that I don't want to type more than a few sentences. Everyone's trapped in this house which to me would make it seem like the walls are closing in, but these characters are still lurking and sneaking around corners and whatnot. The main actress wears the same expression the entire movie. The villain attacks her at the end and in the cringy final scene, her entire demeanor is as if someone spilled a glass of wine on her floor...not as if she was afraid for her life. Just awful.

Christina falls in love with Ted who takes her to his home to meet his family during a bad snowstorm and she discovers that Ted's brother died under mysterious circumstances and no one knows what really happened and why. But there's too many obvious clues as she starts snooping around in the house and it's easy to discover the missing pieces before the movie ends. I expected better and would not watch again!

This movie had an inordinate amount of time spent in the kitchen and the dining room. At the mid-point the group were discussing recipes so much that I was ready for a sidebar cooking instruction (or a walk-on by Martha Stewart).

Look for:

1. The character of poor Angie - so sad!

2. Katherine (Ted's sister) - what a tool.

3. Jacob (Katherine's husband) - he looked stoned throughout the movie - I guess he had to be because he was married to her.

4. Christina shooting her mouth off at the mother's birthday party.

5. The bizarre ending with plot points being shot out one after another.

OK time waster.

Nothing happened in this movie except for a boring and predictable end.

This movie was released on Lifetime in December 5th. I think it was filmed on December 4th. I can't lie, I've seen better acting, so they must have had no time for rehearsals or reshoots. The fake snow scenes at night seen from the windows indoors are just awful! Most Lifetime movies may not be stellar masterpieces but at least they are entertaining. This is neither. Pointless plot with a pointless twist. The chase scene and climax is ridiculous. Don't bother watching the last hour and 25 minutes. No spoiler here except the movie itself.
