I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

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

A 17 year old girl inadvertently gets mixed up in a robbery planned by her boyfriend on the store her mother works in.This lifetime movie isn't ground breaking but it's surprisingly watchable thanks to a good cast and good dialog. Jennifer Grant as the mother is quite good.The lovely pre Vampire Diaries Nina Dobrev takes a role that could have been annoying and makes her quite sympathetic especially when she does some irritating things.It has a lesson about consequences about having the wrong boyfriend. Listen to your Moms girls! Worth a watch.

While this film would almost certainly would have been mediocre regardless of casting, the actress (Jennifer Grant) who plays the mother's emotionless performance was so distracting that I couldn't focus on the rest of the movie. It's rather obvious that she's only getting work because she's the attractive daughter of a Hollywood legend. They may as well have casted a mannequin in the role -- they might have gotten a significantly more emotional performance if they had.The plot itself is typical "daughter accidentally gets herself in trouble" fair. Aside from Statue-face, whose performance was abysmal, the actors were mediocre.

Excellent film where a college bound student's boyfriend and his brother make her an unwittingly accessory to both robbery and murder when they hold up the jewelry store that her mother works in and trick her into coming into the car and acting as the lookout.Obviously, the girl becomes impossible to deal with as her behavior changes drastically as the police close in on who are the culprits.Good detective work leads the police to the culprits. There is excitement throughout and the ending is well deserved but filled with panic.This is a definite film dealing with conscience and ultimate redemption.

This was pretty awful. No, it was unbearably awful. Bad acting on ALL counts, one- dimensional characters (at best), storyline weak, rush and unlikeable. I was in the mood for one of those terrible, made-for-Lifetime-movies; you know the type, with has-been actors, and transparent, weakly delivered plots, bad staging, poor dialogue... Meredith Baxter- Birney, Judith Light... the usual suspects. This was more-or-less like that, but disappointing, in that it wasn't even innocently cheesy. However, I kept thinking that the mom in this one (Jennifer Grant?) would have been better cast as Heidi Fleiss in a bio-pic of the madam's life. They have similar equine features, and can't act. Other than that, pfft.
