Avis à la une
Grace (Larissa Dias) is staying clean after her latest rehab. Her mother Janie (Anne Heche) is supportive and hopeful. While doing a favor for a friend, Grace gets kidnapped by druggie former boyfriend Richie. She's locked in a motel room to be broken down for trafficking. Most think that she had fallen off the wagon again, but Janie is relentless in her search for her daughter.
This is one of those Lifetime woman-in-trouble movie. It's noteworthy for being one of Anne Heche's final roles. Elisabeth Röhm is also trying her hand in directing. She seems to be functional, but nothing spectacular. First, Grace needs to fight harder. It's more realistic and much more compelling to push the action. The movie needs to increase the intensity at every turn and this fails to do that. There are also too many dumb characters. I wonder how much money the motel workers are getting paid to turn a blind eye to the scheme. Whatever it is, it is not enough. He's even late for the motel rental. It makes no sense. This is not a smart movie. I get that her repeated drug uses have worn down the family. In which case, the story would work better if the dad is gone and Janie is truly alone. All in all, this is a Lifetime movie and not a good one at that.

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 thought the film was simple and had a very strong message about human trafficking. Anne Heche was, imho great. This is what the films should be like. There was no mention of her in the In memoriam at the Oscars, which shows what Hollywood is all about.
This film is a must watch, it shows how to recognize the abuse, the victims, the turmoil. Victims are not just women, they are men and children, too. We watch but we don't see, we should look at people around us, we need to recognize this in real life in order to help victims.
Message at the end of the film is this in 2020 the International Labour Organisation estimated that there are currently 25 million victims of human trafficking around the world.
To conduct their operations, traffickers need the assistance of hospitality industry, the banking system to launder money, the transportation industry, and Internet platforms to recruit and advertise their victims.
HUMAN TRAFFICKING is a $150 billion a year global industry.

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.
