She Cried No

Recently discovered a ton of trashy made-for-TV movies on Prime, and I am in Heaven. This film stars a lot of "it" people from the 90s, which is a definite win.

It's completely unoriginal but you know what? We're still having conversations about consent today. We are still living a trope where no one believes the victim, where she (because the victim is usually a woman) is afraid to speak, and everyone sides with the perpetrator while the victim is the one on trial.

Still.

With regards to the film, the leads play their parts well, showing their acting range. Although we remember Candace Cameron Bure and Mark-Paul Gosselaar as fun, cute, sweet characters, they both come out of these roles to portray real people with very real issues which cannot be resolved neatly within half an hour. Credit where credit's due, they do an amazing job.

"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!

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!

Pretty good TV movie about college kids partying hard and taking things a little too far. The performances are good and the film holds up still with it's timeless relevance of taking advantage of someone, drunk or not.
