Secret Lives of Housewives

Hardly any riveting emotion throughout, bland in tone and formulaic. Mellow drama without much drama... is just mellow.

Put in the effort! These films no doubt make money and take money to make- but doing the bare minimum isn't gonna cut it any more with all the competing content.

The movie focuses on a suburban family made up of mother, father, and son that has issues, to put it mildly. Kendra, the mom, has been flirting with the a younger man, who ends up dead. Her husband knows about her seeing him but so do other people and that's where the movie starts to get interesting. Who killed the guy and why? Definitely worth a watch and recommended! Jessica Morris as the mom does a good acting job!

Kendra Davis nearly has an affair with a younger man. Temptation beckoned, but she ultimately chose not to break the vows she made to her husband. However, when her almost lover dies, the delicate balance she'd been trying to achieve in her marriage shatters.

Grief stricken, Kendra works to hide her devastation from her husband, but soon she begins to suspect that he might have had hand in the young man's demise. Unable to let it go, Kendra starts to investigate. As she does, it becomes clear that she wasn't the only person involved with her dead paramour.

With its title, it sounds like a Jackie Collins-type film, but it's a standard lifetime film which is slow-paced, yet still arresting and twisty enough to hold your attention. And there's a neat twist at the end. It's not amazing but passes the time adequately.

A typical lifetime movie plot. I kind of like it. It kept me interested to the end. Three quarters in I guessed right on who murdered Eric. Up and coming actor Justin Berti put in a commendable performance as Peter. The movie was never boring. It kept interest in this who done it. The pace of this movie moved right along. I never had a thought of changing the channel. The actors turned in a fine performance. The actor that played the son looked lost. He needs to attend acting school if this is going to be his career. His facial expression was lacking in different scenes. Not to many commercial interruptions.
