Ok, so the acting is pretty good, especially for this genre. With the notable exception of the "newscaster" character. Yikes. But the WRITING, my gosh - the writing is just horrible! The dialog is stilted and ridiculous. Probably the most laughable part is the main character's boutique name: Juvenile Shop. Seriously!
Here we have the same old formulaic, generic Lifetime movie. We have the usual obsessed or crazy bad guy or girl. Then we have the usual tactic where one person suspects the bad person is bad, but their friend/spouse/boy or girlfriend doesn't. Of course, there is always a friend or relative close to the main character, too. When that person finds out something about the bad person, they don't or can't tell the main character right away (it's amazing how often people don't have their cell phones with them, or ignore calls, at critical moments in these movies). Nope, that would be too easy. Instead, they have to wait long enough for the bad person to kill or injure them before they can warn anyone about what they found out.
Then we have the too quick, unsatisfying ending after the last commercial, featuring a - Girl Fight!
Plot holes? People acting illogically? Unresolved plot points where we just cut to a happy ending? Of course.
The writers of these movies obviously have a short list of character types and plot formulas to follow. But I guess it works, or people (including me!) wouldn't keep watching these oh-so-similar movies that have slight variations on the same themes.
In this case, the writers didn't even bother with any variations or attempts at originality. Just straight formula. So, if you like these kinds of movies, this is...another one.

This movie literally made me so mad , they made the main character so stupid. there were so many opportunities where she should have done things so different, i understand that it's a movie and they want to make it suspenseful but it's not even suspenseful it's aggravating. awful story line, don't recommend watching unless you wanna know what to do different if you're ever suspicious of someone and people, especially women should always trust their gut instinct or go to help about it.
I loved this movie because it was so awful that my own laughter kept me company.
Wow where to start? A couple of terrible actors with no chemistry AT ALL. I mean, I could visualise how it all came together, they e-mailed the script to them, they read it, then met the same day they were filming, wrapped the whole movie in half a day and left home. I bet they don't even know their real names.
The newscaster!!! What on earth?? Who was that? Doesn't matter, I bet I won't see him in any other movie...
The whole acting was beyond awful! The plot, the lines, everything was nonsense and terrible.
The girl was really good though and I don't mind the one star rating (because minus 10 would be ideal) because of her, she was the only star the movie deserves.
But overall I'd say watch it, it's a total waste of time and sometimes wasting time is nice. Plus you'll laugh, I know I did.

This was such a horrible movie. Don't waste your time unless you want to end up frustrated and angry. The title doesn't fit the plot and the ending was horrible.
