Deadly Sugar Daddy

IMO, people who review Lifetime films as though they're supposed to be the same quality as Sunset Boulevard or Citizen Kane need to seriously get a clue. For a Lifetime-quality film, this was great. A nice, simple escapism popcorn thriller with some good twists and scary moments. Great to take your mind off the current Covid-19 lock downs and troubles in the world.

Bridget breaks up with her boyfriend, Zack, to move to Los Angeles and follow in her father's footsteps to become a writer, a blogger, to be exact. But after showing up unannounced at the company and actually being seen, the boss tells her that she needs to have a blog that will sell. Bridget meets Anthony Glonz who hires her as an executive assistant after seeing her from afar and she finds that her job is too good to be true and Anthony's shady. You'll have to tune it to see what happens next. Decent acting but the story short-circuits at the end. Would not watch again.

Could have been good but not enough storyline. Nothing crazy even happens until the last 30 minutes of the movie. Not enough questions answered or storyline involved and the acting was not the best.

The main character is basically thick. She takes on a really sleazy offer with a man she has just met, not to mention getting in a car with him and he was a stranger. He gave her money to buy clothes, and she ends up purchasing some very grotesque glitter things that doesn't look like anything a normal human being would wear. She found herself being sexually assaulted by slime balls and accepts it. The film stinks and makes women out to be hideously dumb. The best friend was a pointless character. The only people who cared about her safety was her mother and ex boyfriend. It was a disjointed and anti-climatic film. The evil boss man was probably good at acting the villain but his character has no background, history or logic.

Honestly didn't know what to expect. Cinematography was fine, something was off that made it feel cheap. The main character's blog made no sense. The boss/ villain in the story literally had no motive on tricking her into being a "sugar baby" or whatever she was. This film was more of a comedy to me than a thriller.... /:
