This is a lifetime movie so not much is expected. I've seen better lifetime movies than this though. It was almost comical even though it's a "thriller". I literally laughed out loud at some of the acting and scenarios. It was entertaining even if the plot was cliché.
I wish they wouldn't keep giving them different names in the UK. If they called it "The Wrong Stepmother", I would have known instantly not to watch it. I liked Cindy Busby in Heartland as Ashley but in this she was terrible. And, what was Corin Nemec doing in it? Surely he could have found a better role than this.
And why do they keep giving Vivica A Fox top billing when she only plays a cameo, (and I'm grateful that it was only a cameo)? Her acting is appalling. The too good to be true expressions are so bad they are almost funny, but not quite. She's always the same in every bad movie she does. Estate Agent, Detective, Teacher, but all with the same holier than thou expressions. Yuk. I hope this isn't what we have to expect from any new movie from now on. I'm part way through and I'll probably have to keep watching now. Why, I have no idea. Pretty obvious what the outcome will be.

I don't know where you got a four-point anything from these reviews the user reviews are basically one which is where I am unless I could've given it a zero the only thing I can think of is when I looked at the so-called critic reviews they were actually favorable I don't know maybe this is a lifetime thing but everything was just so so bad there was literally nothing redeemable in this at all Not the Acting not the plot not the scenery nothing!!
Cindy busby really a horrible witch in this movie really shows a really dark side not a good movie at all
Horrible horrible horrible movie !!!!! Terrible acting, terrible script, terrible everything, terrible movie
