Disappearance in Yellowstone

I don't understand why they used Yellowstone as the location in this piece of garbage, as none of the scenes even pretend to be shot there, quite obviously. The only reference that is true is that there are bears that you need to look out for (although even the recommendation they give to ward off the bears isn't what we were told to do.).What about all the landscape, the way it looks in general, not to mention the Yellowstone Grand Canyon and Old Faithful? There are no geysers, the plants they use almost look like they're in a rainforest... the hundreds of bison and other wildlife where are they?? And the multitude of tourists and hikers? It's very strange. There's no reason to have it set there, it's not a docuseries, they could have made something up or use a park that isn't so well known or recognizable. Yellowstone is one of the top 3 visited and oldest parks in the country.

The acting wasn't the worst I've ever seen but everything was so silly and predictable...with plot lines that never amounted to anything (what happened to the police at the end? And why even say she was running away from her husband, was it to explain her ability to shoot or use a knife? Why does it look like the mom had her daughter at 10?) Except the ending, which is the only reason I'm giving it 2 stars instead of 1. I really didn't see it coming, and it made me laugh. The sound effect was ridiculous.

I only tuned in because I love the actual Yellowstone. This was just a waste of time.

I'm usually ok with Lifetime movies. I know most have repetitive themes but they are usually pretty good. This movie is terrible. The characters make ridiculous decisions. The mother character is supposed to be looking for her daughter who has been kidnapped, but is distracted by falling in love. This is probably the most annoying part of the storyline. It's just not realistic at all. If your kid is missing you would not be worried about kissing & cuddling while out trying to find them. They pass getting help from the police that are always right there.

I'm giving it a 5 because the acting is decent. The actors can't help the story line is terrible.

First of all... The Mother -Daughter relationship is ridiculous. Like...she's taking her daughter on the run to escape an abusive husband/father...But, then proceeds to leave her in a car on the side of the road?...sure, she locked her mom out of the car...but really? You'd bust a window and bring them with you, before leaving your angry teenager with a broke down car in the middle of nowhere.

Secondly, when the officer arrives and arrests the mother, doesn't believe her, assumes the daughter ran off....seriously?

I have so much more to say, but I can't even form it into anything... The whole movie is hot garbage. I'm shocked that any streaming service allows it to take up space in their library.

Horrible acting and the characters were completely unrealistic. They tried REALLY hard to make a suspense movie but you spend the every moment thinking how stupid the plot is. I'm not sure why I suffered through the entire thing.

Mother and daughter both had multiple chances to escape or fight off their attacker, but instead decided to scream or stand around looking afraid. Oh, and leaving him with an armed weapon when you had the chance to grab it was a great move.

Also, the bear....really!? Really!? That was convenient.

I would recommend saving your time and picking something else to watch. You will thank me.

Jessie (Lucie Guest) is driving her daughter Michelle (Cassandra Sawtell) and passing through Yellowstone. The car breaks down. Mother and daughter are fighting. While Jessie goes off to find help, Michelle locks herself in the car. Jessie finds mechanic Grant (Jonathan Scarfe). Michelle gets kidnapped by Park Ranger Nolan (Aren Buchholz). When Jessie and Grant get back to the car, Michelle is gone. Grant calls the police and Jessie resists for unknown reasons. Officer Stoddard (Reese Alexander) arrives and has a history with Grant.

First, they shot British Columbia for Yellowstone. Deal with it. I can see other problems. Grant really should not get so far into this situation. I don't know why he goes with the lie to the cop in the first place. He already has a checkered past. Of course, there wouldn't be a movie without that. Maybe, the cop should be a bully which suggests something more nefarious. In that way, Grant would lie to him as a matter of everyday living. One does have to get over this awkward premise although the romance is not helping considering the situation.
