A Party Gone Wrong

With all Lifetime movies, the plot tends to be as predictable as the sunrise. No surprise there. But given that, I enjoyed the movie. It's based on a true story for the most part. Character development and story was lacking just a bit. Not sure what the mom/boyfriend storyline was all about. It just kind of came and went. But overall the acting was good. Especially April (played by. Shellie Sterling) and the Uber driver, Mike (played by Emerson niemchick). The coolest, creepiest yet likeable psychopath you would want to meet. I had a love/hate relationship with this character. Emerson was the strongest actor in this drama. His anger at the escape of one of the girls was believable and tense. You feared for her if he ever caught up with her.

Aprils emotional display of being in a freezer and potentially being killed was very poignant, well balanced and not overly played.

I wish the writer would have flushed out more of the back story between Brittany, Mike and Mike's assumed brother, Johnny(?) and why they ended up being the people they are. Whatever trauma was in their past that made them candidates for the psyche ward would have added weight to their character and actions.

Weakest moment: The nurse who was going to perform the operation. Just not believable. Her acting felt forced.

Good movie over all. I never looked at my watch.

You really can't expect too much from a Lifetime movie. Most of the time, these stories are watchable and mildly entertaining. This film was absolutely horrible!

For a film with a limited budget, it was entertaining. Especially enjoyed the performance of the evil doctor - either she was really evil or she was a very good actress (or both)!

Five minutes into the movie, a friend plied the main character with spiked drinks, and got her into a pretend cab in which she was abducted as apart of a scheme.

What drew me to this film was the idea that a regular woman had a fun night and gets into an actual cab/ride share and the driver ends up being crazy. It's more realistic and dynamic of a plot because you would typically only find out motives of the abductor and if the abductee survives at the end. And it makes you root for her thinking of the horror of a normal woman being abducted by a third party ride share app driver and how could this happen. But this is just a dramatic mess that's still predictable. We know who our attackers are, we know why this is happening to the victim, and we don't feel bad. She kept drinking stuff that she knows was spiked. Her friend told her it's ginger ale "with other things." But this movie DOES remind me of that Tamla case where a pretty and popular black woman gets drugged by her female white "friends" at a party despite her reluctantly attending and then being murdered by the women's white male partners.

Too predictable & commom. Still using flashlights when there are so many lights at the background. Hallooo.
