    On the road to Damascus.......

    Super good movie and without giving anything away, there is one moment during this film that has an enormous shock.

    The story is about a middle aged married guy who gets on line and meets a much younger woman with whom he becomes infatuated with, leading to all sorts of consequences.

    This picture is apparently based on true events.

    The lead actor gives a compelling performance, and he and the rest of the cast are very convincing.

    The story also examines what problems can arise from on line dating.

    A hugely entertaining and thought provoking film!

    8/10

    One of the better LifeTime movies I have seen

    Based off a true story (most are) but I remember this case in the news last year. A family is totally turned around when 47 yr old married father of 2 Thomas Montgomery becomes obsessed with a certain chat room and then becomes fixated on a young blond woman/Kate . He develops a keen interest in her too so he pretends he is a 21 year old marine sniper.This online affair last almost a year and then it starts to get out of hand when his wife used his computer and found a couple days worth of chat logs. She confronted her husband and informs this young woman her husband is not who he seems. So both Thomas's relationships are in serious trouble. He cannot seem to stay off of the computer so he signs on and actually again chats with Kate. Kate tells him she intends on seeing a much younger man Brian, a friend of Thomas's. He gets incredibly jealous and then tragedy happens. This is a surreal story of people who cannot separate fantasy from reality and they caused an absolute disaster.

    Well done

    Talhotblond. If it wasn't real it would corny. But truth is stranger than fiction. Courtney Cox did an excellent job as director. She tells the story. And for a Lifetime movie, this is one of the best ones. I've seen this several times and it holds up each time. All of the actors can act. The cinematography is creative, the editing, and music are well done. The plot twist at the end is something else.

    Well..

    Seen this a few times & although.. He ultimately commits murder,don't blame him for looking elsewhere.

    His wife talked to and treated him like a child,seemed he was carrying too much & finally snapped.. Everytime she(wife)said his name,it made me cringe.. Anybody else?

    Some might feel how can I say this? Although based on a true movie,probably many facts might of been glossed over.. Plus he as well,got lied to by someone.

    Again.. doesn't justify several things,but room for understanding & healing should be considered.

    This movie was cast & acted decent,as well cinematography was done with quality.

    Is it worth checking out? Yes! A better Lifetime production.

    Excellent!

    Courtney Cox directed a gem on this one! I knew of the story when it happened, and was so excited when this movie was featured on Lifetime Movie Channel. It has become my favorite (there are so many great ones on LMN. A must see!
