    Outstanding Whodunnit

    An outstanding and well-crafted whodunnit...Had me on the edge of my seat trying to solve the mystery... Actors were very believable. .Loved it!!!!

    Now that was a treat!

    I'm a sucker for these types of movies. I saw it on Amazon prime as a suggestion so a read the set up and took a chance. I was glad I did. Reminded me a lot of Hitchcock's Rope where most of the film takes place in one room. You can tell it didn't have a big budget but the cast was so good it didn't matter. I only knew Chase Masterson from DS9 and she was lovely. In Manipulated I was blown away at how good she was! Don't get me wrong they were all fantastic. Kelly Perine was an excellent choice and can clearly see why he got the lead. I don't want to go into any spoilers but all I'll say is "I didn't see that coming!" Wanna escape for 90 mins and see a great who done it? See this film. Smart writing along with excellent performances is the perfect entertaining combination.

    Great Movie

    Very good movie. I really enjoyed watching it. I will definitely watch it again. I loved all the characters in the movie. A great mystery who done it film. It will keep you guessing until the end.

    A terrible waste of time

    This was a terrible movie. Poorly directed, poorly written, poorly acted. Three for three. It's not worth anyone's time.

    As for all those 10s and a 9, click on the screen names of those "reviewers." This is the only movie they ever reviewed. Can someone say "shill"?

    A zero seems generous.

    Terrible Acting

    This movie is terrible. The script isn't bad and the story may have survived had it not been for the lead detective - his acting is horrible. Don't waste your time unless you want to watch 90 minutes of bad acting.
