Perfect Little Angels Trailers

Having just moved to a new town, widow Elaine Freedman and her teenage daughter Justine are greeted by the effusive, terribly nice Dr. Calvin Lawrence. Sensing that Justine is bit testy and out of sorts, Dr. Lawrence recommends that she begin taking a special vitamin which he manufactures in his own home. Before long, Justine is the model of perfection -- just like all the other teenagers in town.

To me, this movie is perfection.

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

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This movie is okay....i'll admit i found it somewhat entertaining, but it wasn't me that turned it to ABC Family in the first place...i had just seen Disturbing Behavior a couple of days or possibly a week before my brother convinced me to watch this movie. The basic plot line is about a sinister doctor determined to help the kids in a small town to make it smoothly through Adolecence. A young man discovers their is something freaky going on and ends up rescuing and isolating a girl he is infatuated with. She is eventually returned to normal, but the lingering question is "Why was she acting so strange?". Fortunatly or Unfortuantly for her, your choice, Her mother is engaged to the Doctor. Ironic, huh? Well, the plot unfolds and there is a bit of suspense, and some referenced humor that i didn't understand until now, but overall it was a pretty good movie. The only thing is that it ripped off Disturbing Behavior...i think that this is a more tamer version of Disturbing Behavior...but i'd recommending watching both and decide which one you like better.

The movie has a well-produced look, and whoever did the wardrobe deserves the highest of awards. The girls look fantastic and have plenty of opportunity to show off their legs. If that doesn't keep you watching, the plot and storyline will keep you watching. The acting is convincing, and a lot better than most popular TV shows out there. It was fun to look at and fun to watch. Now it needs to be released on DVD.

I saw this movies a year ago at 2am because I couldn't fall asleep and instead of falling to sleep which i was planning on I got so wrapped up in the movie and stayed up to watch it. It was in April of 2000. This movie is very good. I really loved the way the girl found out about the happenings in her new and odd neighborhood was very mysterious. To tear myself away would have been very hard. Brendan Ferh, who played Mitch in the movie was good at his part also. I really wish that above anything they would play this movie again on TV so I can watch it again. Even if they do so at three am in the morning I would stay up to watch it. So if anyone who has a say in the matter of what goes on TV reads this just consider what I wrote. Again i loved this movie

Although standard MOW foder, "Perfect Little Angels" is actually not a bad little suspense thriller once you get into it. Some great looking young Canadian actors (especially Brendan Fehr as "Mitch", who acts as good as he looks), and a solid performance from TV staple Cheryl Ladd make this "Disturbing Behaviour" rip-off watchable. The story revolves around mind control in the tightly knit, upscale suburban community Elesium Meadows, where every home is perfect, every mother is June Clever and every teenager is Ken or Barbie. Enter new comer Justine (Jody Thompson, who's performance is, at best, uneven), and her mom (Cheryl Ladd), a recently fatherless family looking for a new start. Justine is immediately approached by the Elesium Meadows gang, led by Brad (Jade Pawluk, a perfect, plastic doll). This group of Gap clad teens are perfect to the point of nausea and begin stalking Justine in order to make her perfect as well. Justine also befriends Mitch (the afore-mentioned Fehr), an outsider who hates the Elesium kids and does his best to keep Justine from them. Oh yes, there's also a mad scientist, Dr. Lawrence (once classy actor Michael York, who phones in his performance here), who feeds everyone vitamins that are also mind control devices that somehow link up to a radio tower in his back yard. Actually, when writing this out, it all seems pretty silly, but it actually works on the small screen as Justine and Mitch rush to defeat the evil doctor and his plans for neighbourhood domination. Once again have to mention the stand our performance of newcomer Brendan Fehr. Very good looking, his every move on screen is a pleasure to watch. This kid has star written all over him. Tim Bonds direction is OK, and the technical aspects of the film are pedestrian. 6 out of 10, but only because of Fehr.
