A Major Disappointment

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Arizona has not been hospitable to the film industry. But Sylvia Nobel choose it to because of the incredible scenery which she features beautifully in this incredible film. Kendall O'Dell played by Rebekah Kochan the red haired reporter seems distracted, not quite there, but is brought to attention by Marco Dapper playing Talley, the handsome cowboy we learn to love and trust. Eric Roberts is great as the editor as is Bobbi Jeen Olson as the head of the home for runaways. I read the book so was not surprised but intrigued at the alternate ending with excellent acting from Paul Greene, Daniel Baldwin, and Dean Cain. All in all I found it exciting and thrilling and have watched it over and over finding more to love each time! Now I hope she makes Devil's Cradle , her 2nd book in the series, into film! I think it would translate very well and is a timely topic!

This movie is nothing like "Gone Girl", which the cover promised. I've seen the main girl, Kendel, in other movies. She's always great even though I barley recognized her with red hair.I liked the character though. I've watched Rebecca Kocahn in real thrillers...this isn't one of them,sadly. However the dialouge was terrible and this movie was hard to follow...maybe if I had read the book it would make more sense. Some our the character exchanges were even laughable. Oh well. Entertaining enough. I'll probably watch the next one. My husband has a thing for red heads.LOL. I just feel like they used false advertising to get me to buy it. GUess they got me.

Great movie depiction of an awesome mystery book! Sylvia Nobel is one of the Best Mystery writers that I have ever had the privilege of reading. Then... to have it flourish into a movie... Yippee! I was excited to see it come to life! Truly a piece of art. Fantastic scenery shots in Arizona. I couldn't help but chuckle through the "local AZ" wit! Can you say "Sexy" main characters! I loved seeing some famous faces act out this story. At each turn you question.. Who Done IT??!!! Quite Gripping! I could not believe that this was based off a true story! A great movie that the whole family can enjoy together! Can't wait for #2 of the series!!

Having not read the Kendall O' Dell series prior to seeing the film I was not sure what I was in store for and I was not let down; the story was fantastic. I would have loved to see a slight more focus on the mystery because those scenes were quite captivating, however it was not a drawback for me. The film had some well known names who did not disappoint including a stellar performance by Eric Roberts, and fairly new names such as Marco Dapper, who I am looking forward to seeing more from after seeing this film. The score fell a little flat for my liking but did feature fantastic songs here and there. I loved the scenery, and thought the art direction was great throughout. Overall my only complaint was that I felt as though Kendall's character deserved a better performance. I would love to see another Kendall O' Dell movie be made.
