    LIked the way things unfolded

    The pretty psycho is an orphan who kills her stepmother and fixates on a perfect mom blogger played by Susan Mabrey. It's quite fun to see how she worms her way into the life of her perfect mother. Her slightly difficult daughter is less accepting. The ending is quite exciting and satisfying in a Lifetime Thriller way.

    Pretty good

    The Perfect Mother turned out to be pretty good. It is an average lifetime movie with the same type of plot as many others. The two young actresses in it did a really good job In both of their roles. This one contained seduction and murder.

    Typical Lifetime thriller fare

    Trying to identify the opening song is much harder than not finding it.

    Good movie

    Very good movie of drama and suspense, a girl who is completely ready to do anything for the return to the life of a family, mother and case own daughter. She is really crazy, a young girl ready for anything, intense movie I really like im recommend this movie.

    Oh, Come On!!!

    The movie was all right. But we had to say "Oh come one" when Peyton gave a little shove to Mr. Feldman and he went down so hard that he went into a coma. That's nuts, a big strong guy like him and a shove from a little petite girl. Come on!

    I gave the movie an extra two stars for Lili Sepe. She was really good as the not-so-contrite but yet suspicious daughter.
