A Friend's Obsession

I've been catching up on a lot of Hallmark/Lifetime thrillers since being forced to stay home on and off due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This Lifetime thriller was decent and had a few good twists and turns along the way. Typical Lifetime film but fun and some of the cast members were very easy on the eyes.

Basically this is typical psycho love obsession like in many movies. He is a criminal or killer too. He could be mental hospital patient too. It's bit too obvious psycho, where on moments we can even notice that he is aware he is acting. That is bad. And bad is fake police sounds at the end. Although there was police, it was obvious that sounds are not coming from real nearby police vehicles, but was just random repeating sound. Lesson is to never mistake friendship in relationship. This is most obvious in introverts, shy, and asocial people. Normally they do not like friendship, so leave them alone! If they liked friendships they wouldn't be introverts already! It is our mistake, and not only of psycho or loner for what we he does to us, because we allowed him to think he is in relationship. This movie is also somewhat funny!

Bad in every way. Plot, character decisions, mundane qualities, yada yada yada. Don't bother with this one.

Decent movie with typical, overused and overdone storyline with a man who has an obsession with a woman character, nothing really special about this movie, would watch if you're really bored and you have nothing else to do with your time.



5/10

Standard plot #7 in the LMFC (Lifetime Movies for Chicks) playbook.

The actors are generally engaging for a LMFC, the dialogue is somewhat better than average, and I only noticed one faux pas (I'm sure I missed 10).

A "5" is a good score for a LMFC. Recommended.
