This is a very good movie that follows a 16 year old girl who goes to meet someone from the net and he kidnaps her and he runs a sex site on the net and he uses girls he kidnaps and puts them on the net. the girls Mother is out trying to find her and eventually does and just has to get her away from the guy. this movie is very good, it shows why you should always be careful of people on the net. Also the mother and daughter in the movie are Mother and Daughter in real life. i don't know if this is based on a true story but it could be!
I caught this movie tonight on Lifetime and I have to comment. The internet is NOT a toy and I wish this movie were shown more often. I say that because I see kids online all the time who drop their names, locations, email addresses and IM names like people drop business cards. I know they think that this sort of stuff will not happen to them but as this movie showed, it can happen to anyone. I reinforce these realities whenever I need to and have no problem doing so. Cyberspace crawls with pedophiles, stalkers and people who have nothing else to do but play online all day. I think this movie was good and I wish it were shown more often. If any parents are reading this.......PLEASE keep the computers out of the kids rooms. Otherwise, you never know what sort of trouble can come of just "innocently" talking in a chat room to someone. The internet is not a toy and should not be treated as one. Just my two cents.
Pretty simple movie but has a nice strong plot. It shows to people the danger of internet.
I think some of the story should be make longer and more details.
Overall, perfectly and watchable movie.

In today's, pc world, this movie tells a tale that we all know could happen. Not all that bad a film, especially if you're a cheryl ladd fan.
God this was just horrible! everything about it... the acting, the script, the characters... I just couldn't decide what was more laughable, the unbelievably dumb 16 year old, (yes some teens are innocent and gullible, but not to that level!!), the internet-geek who "never goes out of his house" and voluntarily gives a hell of a laptop to some woman he never met before, or the mom who didn't know anything about computers, but learned 'it all' in a couple of, umm, minutes? Not to mention Ted McGinley AKA Jefferson Darcy as the big bad scary hacker guy...
Other than that you just gotta love movies about comps and "the net" made by people who know absolutely nothing about it (except for various textbook quotes)... There were so many holes and misinformation in this movie I couldn't even begin writing about it...
But in any case, to all worried computer-illiterate parents: unless your teenage daughter suffers from major brain damage, you don't have anything to worry about... but if she does, disconnect the internet and let her watch TV instead... cheers :)
