I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

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.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Mary Higgins Clark's books are usually quite predictable, as is this adaptation of one of her song-titled books. The cast is mostly unknown with the (not too great) exception of Laura Leighton. You will have no trouble figuring out who-dun-it--if you stick around to see the ending, that is. The made-for-TVer is not very involving but is relatively painless. Not worth the price of a rental, much less a ticket.
