Poorly written for a movie that had potential with a good story. This was a Lifetime Channel movie gone bad. It's not even a bad B movie. Multiple Illegal searches are just one of the many ridiculous parts of a "cop" movie with clearly no research in how cops do their jobs. The title alone should tell you to steer clear - 911-Nightmare... a Nightmare of directing, acting, and plot.
Nonsense
Do not watch this nonsense
Terrible attempt at acting
Stupid storyline
Are there no HR procedures in the USA?
How many investigating police officers walk around with the case file for a murder containing sensitive data.
Stupid all round

An interesting premise starts with a thrifty script that immediately gets to the crime, the cop who needs to prove something and the threat of more killings. The sorry is paced as steadily as an episode of Law and Order and never finds a reason to lag.
If the writing and direction are good, why does everyone hate this movie? Well, for one, the lead actress ought to consider another profession. She performs someplace between "phoning it in" and Faye Dunaway in "Mommy Dearest." For another, the production values scream "Wifetime Movie." And, last, the music make me want to pound myself in the head with a hammer.
I would like to see what the writer and director do with an actual cast, because this was just godawful.

I was watching a different movie (Cliffhanger) where the hero had a shoulder injury that conveniently came and went as required by the plot and was reminded of this movie. Our hero in this movie was shot in the leg in the first scene. It's quite a serious injury. Her doctor says something about amputation being necessary if she refuses to stay off it.
The first thing our hero does is toss her walker in the trash and devote all her energies to racing about. She climbs stairs, runs(!), climbs through windows, chases down suspects, etc. Pretty much anything and everything other than resting her leg. She limps at times, hobbles at other times, and walks normally the rest of the time.
Though suspended from the police department, she breaks and enters, threatens a potential suspect with her gun, and steals evidence from him. Her illegal activities culminate in her shooting a suspect.
Three stars because this was a pretty bad movie but the rampant continuity errors with the leg injury made it memorable.

This was bad from beginning to end. I watched it all the way through so as to give a legitimate review. This film is actually as bad as the majority of the reviews. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the bad reviews are even from the actors who signed up for this misadventure.
