To Kill a Stepfather

This film is a fun and exciting roller coaster from start to finish. What may start as a typical Lifetime Film, is elevated by the performances of the cast. The show is truly stolen by the lead actress Alex Camacho who truly shines in a leading role that has you terrified for her as she hunts for the killer. She is empathetic and stern when necessary but has a powerful and commanding control of any room she is in. This actresses star will only continue to shine and I can't wait to watch her star in more projects. The supporting cast of family and fellow townspeople round out a truly talented ensemble and this makes for a delightful watch.

I had no expectations one way or the other..when I viewed to kill a Stepfather, mostly just curiosity...I had enjoyed lifetime movies..in the past. I thought this one sounded fascinating, it did not disappoint.

The story was very interesting, with an obvious choice of who the murderer was... but things aren't always what they seem...The drama of solving the crime mixed with the drama within the family kept me on my toes. I must say...I had an idea before the end of what was about to happen..but the acting was wonderful all characters did their parts well. Kudos to a new star on horizon...Alexandra Comacho, playing the lead role of "A top notch L. A. Lawyer" who turns out to be the accused's daughter..with mom issues.... I very much enjoyed this film and would recommend it.

So, I want to start by saying how nice it is to see a fresh face on the tv these days. I mean, we've all seen the Angelina's, Margo's, J Lo's etc. But to sit down on the couch, pop the tube on, and see a classically beautiful unknown actress really shine is just so refreshing and wonderful.

I've been a big fan of Lifetime originals for as long as I can remember. "Death of a Cheerleader" , No one would Tell", "Gracie's Choice", "Fifteen and Pregnant", "Mom at Sixteen", "She's to Young", "A Secret Between Friends", "Lies my Mother told Me", "She Cried No".

I could go on and on. But this one. This one really hit the mark!

Couldn't take my eyes off of the beautiful redhead. She is clearly bound for greatness. More please!

I've never been a big lifetime movie guy. In fact I think this is the first one I've ever seen.

I was hooked right from the very beginning. The Lead actress and her mother had great chemistry. I could feel the "lifetime" of turmoil and tension between them. Sister Riley also did a fantastic job.

This movie did a nice job within is murder mystery genre. The family had fun guessing "who" in the cast of characters "done it".

It is a visually well shot movie that maintains a constant state of suspense for the viewer.

Alex Camacho had beautiful moments through out, and left me wanting more.

Sequel???

Usually I'm not a fan of lifetime movies because they can be cringy and predictable. This one was nothing like that! The chemistry and emotions between Nicole and her mom felt so real. There was the perfect amount of drama/mystery/predictability.

The actress who plays Nicole is absolutely gorgeous and brings such realness and emotion. I would love to see her in more movies and shows. Alex was hypnotizing with her acting.

Honestly all the actors did amazing and made all the connections/relationships seem legitimate. I think they picked a great cast. I might even start watching lifetime movies now because of this one.
