The Wrong Car

...but the writers left out the good parts!

I loved the little gang of bangers. They were pretty convincing as not so bad guys. The real bad guys very slimy enough to give themselves away. The baby? I don't understand his role here but, whatever.

This movie had so much going for it and just as it got good......yeah, that's how I felt.

Another TV movie whose title has been changed to the Wrong Car. I guess Originally the movie was called Vehicle For Revenge. Anyways it's about a woman who gets in a car she thinks is some Ride Co. To take her home and gets rufied and ends up sexually assaulted. The movie is subpar at best, but it really takes a turn to the stupid once the suspect in the case goes back and picks up women at the same spot, in the same car, and takes them to the same hotel, after already knowing he is a suspect and the police could be watching him. Really really dumb. 3/10.

Beautiful blonde criminal justice student Danielle Savre (as Trudy O'Donnell) thinks she's getting into a legitimate "NetCar" (as "Uber") after partying at a nightclub. As it turns out, the driver is a fake. He drugs and rapes his victims, after arriving in a black sedan that looks like a legitimate car. Most people just hop in the vehicle and give their address. Understandably traumatized, Ms. Savre has trouble warming up to attractively muscular Jackson Davis (as Donovan), who seems like an ideal catch. She's not interested in slightly chubby Kevin Cox (as Charles), a "NetCar" driver and fellow student. After learning how long it takes to investigate rape cases, Savre decides to take matters into her own hands. She gets a job as a driver for the same company, hoping to stalk, identify and nip the rapist...

Writer-director John Stimpson's "The Wrong Car" contains a valuable lesson: make sure you know your driver is authentic...

It's also an engaging and nicely produced story. Casting is perfect, right down to sleazy motel clerk Rhet Kidd (as Roger) and concerned detective Christina Elmore (as Jackson). There are some problems accepting various plot developments, however. While strained, we're going pardon Savre for putting roommate Francia Raisa (as Gretchen) in deadly danger. It's stupid, but we all do stupid things. The last shot (of alcohol) at the nightclub, before the endeavor, is dumb multiplied. But, the characters leaving the scene of a possible rape to go have coffee - and with a police investigator, no less - is the real deal breaker. No good "Lifetime TV Movie" cop or heroine would do such a thing. If the pretty blonde heroine can skip showering for three days, she can wait a few hours to help a drugged rape victim.

**** The Wrong Car (2016//01/16) John Stimpson ~ Danielle Savre, Jackson Davis, Kevin Cox, Francia Raisa

not complicated, expected turn of events, expected the suspects from the very beginning even before the incident happen because there is no room for other suspects actually. Some events are not logical at all. most of the school scenes were unnecessary because they start with an idea they but the scenario writer decided not to go on with any side arguments and to focus on the main story, that's why they were unnecessary . its watchable. but I really hated the guts of the main actress playing the "rebellion vigilante" I would advise that you make this your last option to watch

that's all!!

With Uber and Lyft in the news all the time lately, I think the subject might be of interest to a lot of viewers. The plot is very plausible, people are finding that out, with all the incidents that have already happened. Way too much trust out there. Of course criminals are using technology now, apps, new kinds of vulnerability. As for the film I thought the casting was good. There might be some plot flaws, but remember she is driven by anger, and might be a bit reckless and not thinking straight. That said, it all works out. But yes there could have been more depth. A little freaky at the end, should make a lot of women more careful.
