To me, this movie is perfection.

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Who had the temerity to call this a thriller? There are so many things wrong with this film, or rather with the way the male lead is portrayed. Okay, Chad was a jerk, but a 21 year old who has sex with a 16 year old is not a paedophile, or pedofile in American-English, and rather than pump and dump his catch as a total jerk would have done, he wanted to be part of his son's life. What is so wrong about that? Some monsters are born, others are made, and he had a terrible start in life as it was. Not a whit of sympathy or empathy for this unfortunate dude. Okay, you wouldn't want him in your daughter's life, but if he'd been offered visitation rights or at the very least if they'd given him a hearing, things wouldn't have turned out half so tragic. Cry for the bad man; you made him that way.

There's a lot of fluff in the media right now, stuff which is just meant to entertain and nothing more. Is there anything wrong with that? No. But we often lose sight of what the media, film in this case, can do -- be entertaining and provide a good, strong message to a relevant audience. Stalked at 17 does a fantastic job of driving home very important points and relevant subject matter to its target audience. The actors' portrayals of their characters (Taylor Spreitler and Chuck Hittinger, who you'll recognize from Melissa & Joey and Pretty Little Liars, respectively) are spot on, something young women and men can identify with. The actors' who played the parents are also fantastic, driving home just how much turmoil can be stirred up in the situations of teenage pregnancy and, in a case such as this, a crazy boyfriend. Speaking of which -- crazy he is. Really crazy. But the interesting aspect of the character as written in this script, and as portrayed by Mr. Hittinger, is that he is also relatable. Relatable in kidnapping and stalking? Not to a majority of the audience, of course. Relatable in that he is obsessive? Yes. Relatable in that he had a bad childhood and desperately wants to make up for it? Yes. Relatable that he is going about everything all wrong? Yes. A lot of young men do. There is a reason for his madness, one many people have dealt with in their own ways. And for this reason, he stays away from the moustache-twirling douche bag one might expect. The ending of the movie leaves a little to be desired, but one of the last scenes if of the girl holding her baby, who will now grow up without its real father in most of its life. Sad. But not exactly fantasy.

Is it only in USA that guy being 21 and girl being 17 somehow is supposed to make audience feel that there is something wrong? That 17 is really not all that much different from 21. You don't know all that much more unless you are undergoing extreme experiences. Most people spend those years mostly in school, and not all that much changes.I don't believe I ever met 17 year old that was as stupid as main character was in this movie.This movie was badly written. They should have had psychologist/psychiatrist with actual field experience as consultant.Instead script reads like it was written by somebody utterly clueless about regular people that age.To top that off, casting was just horrible. Main actress cant act and should look for different career. So should most of the rest of the cast.I find that if script was better written, and if acting was better, perhaps this could have been a tragic story, where we could feel bad for both people. Instead, I felt nothing at all for any character in this movie, and found myself fast forwarding a lot.Give this one a pass, your time should be worth more to you.

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.
