Undercover Cheerleader

A shallow soap opera for a targeted teenage high school audience. The kids want to pull a fast one on the absentee mom and similar to the old Disney story line, trouble ensues. Is this a mystery worth solving? Not at all, unless you are a paid babysitter to a bunch of spoiled brats.

I give it a boring 4 out of 10 IMDB rating.

It's Autumn (actress Kayla Wallace from the show "The Good Doctor"), who is amazing in this LIFETIME movie and a great actress. She's definitely attractive, but as she goes undercover as a cheerleader in a highschool to do an exposé on the cruel culture of the squad for her school newspaper, someone is viciously attacking the other cheerleaders and Autumn begins to fear for her own life. My thoughts on this story is it is like the Stephen King movie Carrie and Get It On. It isn't really known who might be the villain in this movie, since there are several girls who could be the killer, but maybe the principal or maybe the Cheerleader Captain? It's a regular plotline with LIFETIME where you think you've figured it out and at the end you're like "What the....?" I loved the interaction between Autumn and Kara, especially with Jordan, her boyfriend. Maybe he's the killer? In this movie right from the get go, you're already Horatio Caine from CSI and Nancy Drew combined, but GOOD LUCK on that, because you won't know who the killer is until.... watch the film and it gets a low mark because it's a very confusing mess and until Autumn discovered something, THEN you figure it all out and quite sad, really....

Autumn Bailey is the new kid at school. She and her mother left New York after the death of her father. She is befriended by Kara who shares a hatred of cheerleaders. Kara recruits her for the school newspaper to go undercover in the cheerleading squad. In addition to mean girls drama, there is more to uncover.

This is a Lifetime TV drama. It's a rather bland mystery drama with various issues. I don't mind the mean girl drama but it's not the most original. The mystery part has its own issue. It needs to be better written. First, Autumn should be the obvious rat of the newbies. She's the new kid at school and they first noticed her when she's talking to the nemesis Kara. The girls are functional actors. The twist is not the most ingenous but it's acceptable. This is flawed but there are worst on Lifetime.

Well, I've seen better acting in bad B movies Story is OK, but writing is so bad, lots of goofs It's watchable, if you have to

Yawn through the character development scenes. Yawn through the build-up. Yawn during the climax. The premise was decent, but the script didn't deliver on it. Reminds me a lot of my first girlfriend: talked a good game, but never really got around to banging.
