Murder RX

The acting is so bad it could be a comedy! But not all the blame should be on the acting the directing, production right down to the sound.. of a echoing voices ect... just awful! I do appreciate they're trying to address opioid issues in small towns but this was really terrible! Only watched because I couldn't sleep and kind of fascinated with how bad is.

"Murder RX" (2020) begins with the feel of a decent, entertaining film about a single mom, well educated and professional manner, - aptly played by Ana Alexander - raising her somewhat troubled high school daughter, aptly played by Naomi Grossman. It seem daddy has run off, leaving the two to struggled in an unappealing urban setting.

To seek a fresh start, mom moved the family to a suburban community, where mom finds work as a doctor's assistant. Dr. Rivera, played by Damian Castro, is apparently involved in a prescription drug scheme, or so it seems.

The deama unfolds as mom, daughter, other high school friends, Dr. Rivera, and local law enforcement weave dramatic crime thriller.

The issue I have is the amateurish acting and directing. It's worse than I've seen in a long time; indeed, even Hallmark's worse-made films could not natch this one, with its weak storyline and cliche denouncement. This is one to avoid.

Nice job all !! Easy to follow and well written. The ending was not expected... exciting and suspenseful. Cant wait to see what the future holds from this young production company.

It really felt like Tommy Wiseau was behind it. I really hoped it would get better based on other reviews. People should stop trolling and You stop watching after the first awkward feeling in your gut that its gonna get better...trust me it wont.

Potential for a great story, using the opioid crisis in a small town situation made me click on this movie. But very quickly it became clear that perhaps that was a bad idea. I kept it on as background noise while working on dinner.

Terrible lines and mostly awkward acting by the cast, but the most grating was the mother, Diana Adams (Ana Alexander) with her uber fake crying and shaking hands.

Plot holes, unbelievable situations (heavily pregnant woman day-drinking in public), a deep neck wound that only bleeds a smudge, and flat characters don't help.

When the supposed "twist" happened, there was not a shred of believability to be had anywhere.

Don't bother watching this movie unless you are trying to fall asleep.
