Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

"Inspired by true events," this story begins with a young mother being "Stalked at 17" by a hooded young man. He pulls a gun on her and orders Taylor Spreitler (as Angela Curson) to get the baby and go somewhere… One year earlier, we flashback to how the stalker met the stalked. Academically very smart, Ms. Spreitler is touring her prospective college. There, she meets the young man from the opening teaser. Without the gun and hood, Chuck Hittinger (as Chad Bruning) looks cute and charming. Invited to his party, Spreitler is quickly carrying Mr. Hittinger's baby...While effectively engaging the audience, the opening gives away most of the story. This is a common way for TV Movies to grab your attention and help you decide to watch their movie. It can be intriguing, but not when the plot falls into place so quickly. An hour is spent going through what we pretty much know is going to happen. A mysterious bit of background involving imprisoned Jamie Luner (as Toni Marshall) is likewise easy to predict. Although the "adopted" Hittinger and Spreitler have similar features, they are not brother and sister. That would be too complicated.*** Stalked at 17 (2012-10-27) Doug Campbell ~ Taylor Spreitler, Chuck Hittinger, Linda Purl, Amy Pietz

If you are a fan of a good Lifetime thriller, then this is the movie for you. It is filled to the brim with enough paternity drama, kidnapping, unexpected pregnancy, mother/daughter bonding, and adoption issues to keep you thoroughly entertained for it's brief 90 minutes. Stalked At 17, naturally based on true events, tells the story of high school student Angela who falls for 21-year-old Chad. Chad, abandoned by his drug-addict mother, when he was four years old, has a great deal of family issues to sort out, and is clearly in no position to be starting a family of his own. When Angela becomes pregnant with Chad's child, all hell breaks loose, as Chad's aggression begins to show. Angela's parents naturally pull her away from him, only making matters worse. Will Angela and her infant son survive this disturbing affair? You'll have to check out Stalked At 17 to find out. While the film may not be perfect in every regard, it is certainly an entertaining hour and a half, with very good performances throughout. Taylor Spreitler, who plays Angela, gives a very authentic feel to her adolescent angst, and is a very likable heroine. My favorite characters in the film however were Angela's mom, played by Amy Pietz, and Chad's adopted mom, played by Linda Purl. The films best moments are shared between these two women interacting in the hopes of protecting their children. Chuck Hittinger plays Chad's level of crazy obsession very well, although occasionally he goes a bit overboard. But this certainly does not take away from the enjoyment of the film. Overall, Stalked At 17, is an engaging tale of regret, obsession, and deceit, with Angela and Chad both playing for keeps. If you're a fan of suspenseful Lifetime movies, you will definitely enjoy this one.

Out of Lifetime's "at 17" movies, this is probably the best one or at least one of the best. The girl from Melissa & Joey and the guy from Pretty Little Liars and American Reunion do a good job in this flick. Jamie Luner is also in here and gives a great performance as sort of a maniac, out-of-prison mother. As with all the other movies before that dealt with similar material, this is meant for older teenager and probably their parents, if they can watch it together. If not, the teenage audience this is aimed for should watch it, and I believe they will be pleased. Appropriate subject matter, decent script, entertaining movie for the most part.

This is not going to win any awards, but it passes time. The girl, played by Taylor somebody, is not a good actress, but seems to have improved some since her time on Days of our lives as Mia, a pregnant teen who was with a boy named Chad. That's strange, since she plays a pregnant teen here and the father's name is...Chad. Jamie Luner is totally wasted in this movie. She doesn't get a chance to do anything, and I'm used to her having the lead in TV movies. She was pretty much a zombie here. I didn't like how the girl seemed to be leading Chad on at points. You either don't want him around or you do. If you don't, stop letting him talk you into listening to him and following him places, just don't bother with him if he shows up at your school. What does she think following him around the corner for a little talk is going to do? Honestly, the girl just didn't seem upset at Chad in a realistic way, it was like she was only being slightly annoyed.
