    Surprisingly thrilling

    A woman seeks justice after a man assaults her, during a first date.

    First 20 minutes were rough. Very cheaply made. I try not to fault a movie for being low quality, since not all movies have access to millions of dollars for a budget. It was very stale and flat, and looked like a student film with a slightly higher quality camera. The actors seemed to be half asleep, and were only there for a paycheck.

    It really picked up afterwards, when the investigation starts. It had me on the edge of my seat when the lead was trying to piece everything together, with the help of her friends. I like when a movie does unexpected things. A lot of twists and turns. The ending was a bit unconventional, and semi realistic. Maybe I'm easily entertained but I enjoyed it for what it was.

    If You Like Dina Myer, Here She Is

    Dina Myer shines in virtually everything she does & you know what you're getting when you watch one of her flicks. This particular movie takes too long to get to where it needs to go. Fast forwarding through some of the slower parts helps...and Dina Myer looks great at whatever speed she moves. Lea Thompson in a supporting role? Sign me up!

    Horrible Acting

    This is without doubt one of the worst pieces of crap I've ever sat through. The acting was unbelievably horrible. The special effects were equally horrible. Don't waste your time like me. Pass over this one.

    Poor acting, poor grammar

    Poor acting, even worse grammar by a so-called writer, " between he and I". Cringe. The movie will seem to take off and then it dies.

    Begins to show some interest and then wanes. The subject matter is compelling, but the writer and actors are way out of their depth.

    I tried to watch it, but was turned off by the low quality of the movie. It's something to watch while you're distracted, folding clothes, cleaning house and then you can attend to the parts that interest you. The one trope that remains in so many of these lifetime-esque movies is that everyone is uber wealthy and lives in a mega mansion.

    Delayed flight? Waste time here.

    Liken this to a high school stage play -rehearsal. If you like to make fun of bad movies then crack a root beer and blow a bag of chips on this one.
