A Nanny's Revenge

I know TV Movies do not have stellar acting. But the acting in this movie was uniquely horrible.

I admit when I started watching I thought I was watching Lifetime. When I noticed weird stuff like the sound editing being off, terrible script writing, weird casting, and confusing characters, I googled the movie's name and realized actually I was watching Tubi. I try to avoid Tubi movies because they are not good. But anyway even for a Tubi movie this is pretty bad.

I watched about an hour and turned it off. The plot was all over the place. I mean how hard is it to get a nanny revenge plot right? It is pretty formulaic. Yet this plot had all kind of side stories and really two main sinister antagonists, not just the nanny was the bad person. It was just weird. I realized I didn't even care what happened to the characters.

The acting in this film is really bad. The dialogue and the plot were so predictable. I truly wish they put more time and effort in the writing process. The whole seduction process was ridiculous between the baby-sitter and the husband. This could have been a decent low-budget feature. The nanny's boyfriend and the wife's acting was horrible. I don't know how production let these actors continue to turn out bad scenes. At least the quality of the film was good. It had a decent edit and the camera work was on-point. The film put money behind the production but failed to hire a decent casting director.

So confused by the reviews. I'm actually surprised by Laurie Fortier being in this movie because she is usually a good actress but it's like it was a requirement to act bad in this movie. Lifetime style movies are usually predictable and this was very predictable which doesn't bother me but I just can't get over how bad the script and acting was in this movie. Big letdown! Especially because I was excited to see a nanny style movie with Laurie Fortier being the lead actress on Tubi. I really enjoy her movies but not this one. I don't understand the other reviews at all. Seriously don't waste your time with this one.

This is teeeerrriiiiibbbbllleeee. I'm used to lifetime movies so I truly know bad acting and this was BEYOND. The acting was so annoying it put me in a really crappy mood and I had to turn it off. The couple that did the hiring ... come on, you couldn't find better actors? She was terrible. Please. Ugh. The emotions didn't match the dialogue and it was stilted and choppy. The "nanny" was definitely in a different league. She was good and I've seen her in many movies. Please hold more auditions next time around so I'm not in such a bad mood when I'm trying to relax and enjoy a movie on a Saturday afternoon!

This is quite a decent drama.

A family need a live in Nanny and one of the applicants for that position seems deranged and intent on causing havoc and worse to the family if she gets the job.

I thought there was some decent players, and the cast gives fairly credible and professional performances.

An outstanding feature of this movie is unlike other similar type stories by the very end of the picture there is a proper compassionate story to be told.

The actresses playing the Nanny and that of the wife more or less vie to steal the show though the husband also gives a believable showing.

Because the story ends up better than expected I can give this: 7/10.
