La follia della mia gemella

Where to start? A '70s ABC After School Special has better acting and dialogue than this. The plot makes less sense than a Scooby Doo episode. (My apologies to Scooby fans.) And when the big reveal rolls around in the last act, you'll be wishing you'd spent the last 90 minutes scrubbing your bathroom instead of watching this tripe.

This would have been a really really good movie. Unfortunately it was ruined by a lousy ending. If this was not a Lifetime movie the ending would have been much much better. I won't give anything away, but there is a glaringly obvious loose end that is not addressed at the end. It is this unaddressed loose end that left me very very disappointed. So instead of a 7 or 8 star rating, it gets a 5 star for its poor ending. The acting overall, however, was very good and the general storyline was also very good. An improved remake of this movie would be very easy - especially if it has absolutely nothing to do with Lifetime!!!

Enjoyable premise, although unlikely to really occur in real life - the idea of a mentally unwell woman stealing her own sister's identity, it does play well onscreen.

The lead actress, Nicole Marie Johnson makes the film work playing 2 roles of both twins. She's very talented and I think she could be a lead in something bigger down the road.

There are some massive plot holes that don't get resolved but besides that I did enjoy this movie (for a lifetime movie). The woman who plays the daughter also did a good job. 6/10.

I have watched 4 Lifetime movies this week, 2 got turned off, one was very good (Girl In The Basement) This one was watchable. It was still not great but the acting wasn't quite intollerable. Story somewhat unbelievable with a tiny twist at the end. Watchable if you have nothing else to watch, like really nothing else to watch. Daytime soap quality.

Lead actress Nicole Marie Johnson does a GREAT job playing twins! This was a well-written script. Reminded me of Whatever Happened to Baby Jane in parts which was a horror classic from the 60's. Perhaps, the writer watched it also to give a little inspiration. Anyway, the movie is definitely recommended!
