An Exercise In Nonsense

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

This was a decent enough movie with a couple well-known actors about the story behind the Amber Alert System. The lead actress, Elisabeth Röhm, is not as bad as some here will have you believe. As for the accent, it sounds a lot like her voice was dubbed over but I've heard Texan accents and accents from GA and AL too that sound just as awful so hey... At any rate, this movie obviously didn't have an enormous budget so don't expect a Tinseltown-esque production but what's even more obvious is that Hollywood just doesn't quite care about the things the average Joe cares about, like the story behind the Amber Alert, Amber Hagerman's story. Good thing Lifetime did.

I kind of agree with the last post.The acting on this movie was kinda of bad.I think that the producer was just in a rush to find the stars and get the movie done.Although I think the little girl that played little Nichole did a really good acting for her age but the rest of the cast.....I did like the movie however cause I really wanted to see how the amber alert came to be but they did need better acting in this film.Good acting Jodelle Ferland though.At least that is my opinion.I'll tell the producer and everyone who worked on this film to next time.Take your time when picking the cast.I am not downing any of the cast members I honestly think it was just too rushed.

Wow,I cannot believe how badly this movie was done.The main actress was horrible,her accent was way over the top(I'm from the South,so I know what I'm talking about)and her acting in general was very bad.As a matter of fact,the acting by the whole cast was bad.It wasn't informative at all,I thought it would be interesting to see how the Amber Alert came into existence,but this movie was a poor vehicle for that.This movie lacked a lot of things.It lacked anyone with great acting ability,where did they get those kids from????? It lacked feeling,empathy and substance.I just didn't enjoy this movie at all.I loved the movie Adam,even though it is painfully tragic,it portrayed realistic grieving parents and showed their strong desire to help others in their situation.This movie failed on all accounts.I give this a 1 out of 5.Dont waste your time on this.

She did a great job in her second Lifetime movie. Can't wait to see what's next for her. To the person who wrote the first comment, she has blue eyes, big L and O fan:~)I watch Law and Order just about every night b/c it's such an awesome show, I can't wait for the new episodes. It's a shame she's not on the show anymore b/c she was really good,I'd go onto bigger and better things too though. Lifetime is a good step they make really good movies that reach everyone on many levels. They definitely did it with this movie, the Abmber Alert is a huge part of history now so I'm glad they told this little girls story! The determination of her mother was amazing and parents should take that with them.
