One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

I read the other comments first and identify with chrissy8569 in thinking that this was one of the lousiest in the genre ! To start with, I don't't like adultery, I am even more shocked when I see an older woman go with a young boy, but that was not the end of it, the plot was totally ludicrous and the acting entirely unconvincing, especially by the actress who played the part of Caitlin. The end of the film has no logic at all and the spectator remains confused as to the motives of each of the characters as well as vis-à-vis the reaction of the attorney. I don't like films with sad endings but can accept a sad ending if the film and acting were of very good quality. Here, the ending isn't even sad, to be quite frank, it would have been better if they all died off in an accident and the less said about it the better. Plot holes abound and the characters do not react in a logical way to the situations in which they find themselves. What could have been going thru the director's mind the day this film was thought up, I am at a total loss to imagine. Bin this film and pass onto something more cheery or more romantic !

I'd give this one 6 *'s -- 3 or 4, per se, and a couple of additional ones for its fascination in its mediocrity, and because of Ward and O'Quinn in the cast.Like others here, even given its being filmed for basic cable, and not meaning to be overly-prurient, there could have been some steamier scenes between the gorgeous Ward and the hunky stepson, Morrow --- both age appropriate (often not so in this type of film), 40-ish and early 20's, respectively, and both immensely attractive. The director also could have elicited a bit more chemistry between the two.The ending is certainly silly, but then, most of the endings of these type TV flicks have silly endings, whether the crazy neighbor or babysitter wielding a kitchen knife, or some supposed "twist," revealing a surprise turn in terms of perpetrator/motive. The former can be anticipated from a "mile away;" the latter perhaps a "half mile," which was the case here.

This is the worst movie I have ever seen. I generally don't mind lifetime movies, they are a good way to pass the time on a rainy Sunday afternoon but this movie was pure crap. I remember the leading lady from Thorn Birds and the leading guy from The Young and The Restless, it's a shame they ended up with this crappy catastrophical disastrous attempt of a movie. I was embarrassed for those who starred in it.The plot was hideous and non existent, their accents were disturbing to say the least and the ending was just the worst one in history. I think this movie should inspire IMDb to start a top 50 worst movie list. To summarize my roommate, those were two hours of our lives we will never get again. Lifetime needs to do better than that movie and it was disturbing how it kept on getting crappier and crappier!!!! My goodness!!!!! This movie deserves a '-1' in my book, I hope I never cross paths with it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Being from the South and having lived here all my life, it just kills me when people try to adopt a Southern accent for movies and FAIL MISERABLY!!! Rachel Ward sounds like she has a speech impediment. If you're gonna do it, do it right and nobody does in this flick. It's distracting from the sucky plot.
