Deadly Girls Night Out

I've had dreams that played out better than this movie! Nothing made sense throughout the movie and it still didn't come together at the end. I don't know if it was just poor editing or the poor acting, or a mixture of both.

This movie was a complete waste of time. 3 best friends, Naomi, Willa, and Tia, go out to celebrate the holidays and Naomi turns up dead and it is ruled a suicide. Willa, doesn't believe it, though and she won't stop until she finds out who and why? Both answers come obvious right away. Skip it!

I'm going to give this a five because it's not completely horrible. Sad how that is seen as a positive today, isn't it? Anyway... the story is ok. It's a Lifetime movie, though, so you know what you're getting going into it. Pretty much everything out of Lifetime is a cookie cutter chick flick.

The acting is not award winning, but it's not laughable. The lighting is good. I will admit I didn't see the ending coming, but I wan't that involved in the story, so...

I guess if you like the type of movies Lifetime puts out, you'll probably enjoy this. You already know whether that's you or not, so I don't think I need to say anything more.

Going into it, I expected trash and I got trash, but in that trash, there were a few things that flickered and showed some promise. The writing, that is a few plot points and some of the dialogues were surprisingly very well done. But those are overall just flickering here and there and couldn't really help the movie itself. I guess the concept was given by the Lifetime channel executives and the writer built upon it. I hope they get chances to really write something worthwhile.

The story revolves around Willa, who returns to her hometown for the holidays after years. When she goes on a girls' night out with her high school friends Naomi and Tia, things go awry as Naomi is suddenly found dead. Police say it's suicide, but Willa thinks otherwise and cue a lot of creeping around the victim's house and investigating.

Starts out blandly but progressively improves with some suspenseful moments and some fine mystery, however I wasn't too keen on Willa - played by Gina Vitori - finding her not very likeable. The investigating bits was fun, and it's not a dull film, but it's the protagonist that lets it down.
