Okay, so it's not exactly the greatest movie of all time, but it's definitely got a couple of good laughs. It deals with a serious subject, but it's hard to take the movie seriously... I mean, look at the cast list...Mark Paul Gosselaar, aka Zack Morris from Saved by the Bell. And Candace Cameron/DJ Tanner- throw a little Six from Blossom into the mix and you've got yourself a winner! I highly recommend this movie as a made-for-TV classic...especially pay attention to DJ's video montage at the end, it's great!
It's 2025 and this is still how sexual abuse is viewed. They blame the victim. While on the other hand you have another girl who is sucking it up and moving on with her life. She doesn't realize her life is falling apart and she's completely lost herself. Society just sees her as someone who made a "choice" and is moving on with her life. The mental health deteriorates even when they suck it up and move on. The main character didn't get justice exactly as she planned and that's really how it is. It's always a he said she said which makes victims not want to open up. The movie isn't a top notch film, but the accuracy of SA and its effect on victims is real. By the end the main character finds her voice and it isn't ignored like it once was.
"She Cried No" AKA "Freshman Fall,is a pretty good TV movie,but it is pretty generic for the genre.it doesn't stand out or anything,but it is well made.the acting performances are pretty good and the characters are pretty believable.the one thing that does set this movie apart would be the ending,which is unexpected and unconventional for this type of movie,at least in my experience.it's nice to see a movie that doesn't cop out in the end.it's also nice to see a strong female character.the movie is certainly watchable and well paced,though there isn't really a lot of tension.still,it's a decent way to spend 90 minutes.i give "She Cried No"a 7/10
Though the ending was a little sudden, the movie overall is very entertaining. The focus is, of course, the very serious topic of rape -- why it happens, how to recognize it, and how to deal with it. But what really makes this movie stand out from its genre is the abundance of early-90s preteen television stars. You have Candace Cameron (or DJ Tanner) from "Full House," Mark-Paul Gosselaar (or Zack Morris) from "Saved by the Bell," Jenna Von Oy (or Six LeMeure) from "Blossom," and Nikki Cox (or Tiffany) from "Unhappily Ever After." The reunion of the now-grown-up stars is a reason alone to see this movie. Plus, they pretty much all play characters that are the complete opposite of the roles they're famous for -- which has to make any nostalgic 90s tv fan smile!
I liked this movie for two main reasons: I like both Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Candace Cameron. Not that this script or plot is original, but I still enjoyed it. What can I say? TV movies are my guilty pleasure. I think although these two stars may have reasonably "fizzled out" and you never hear from them anymore, they're still young and talented regardless of what anyone says. I think they both display wonderful acting in this flick. Candace as a rape victim and Mark as an unbelievably great bad guy. Somehow I never expected "Preppie" to take on this role lol. Never the less, if it's on one night and you're in the mood for a something dealing with this subject, definitely check it out. It won't be the most impressive film you've ever seen (but are any TV movies anyways) but it'll help pass the time and more than likely keep you entertained.
