A Generic Lifetime Movie at Best

Rating: 3/10 (28 December 2015)

I've been reading through the reviews of this film wondering if these people are paid to boast this film as Oscar worthy. Don't get me wrong, movies have been going downhill for years, but this was one of the most overrated films I've seen in awhile. I guess it doesn't take much to impress people these days.
Was I the only one who didn't think it was dark enough? I've seen darker Lifetime movies than this, and the whole movie is entirely built on conversation with very little action. The acting was OK, but the script was just bleh. I felt like it never reached an impactful climax, and I was hoping to see some gnarly stuff given the topic.
I was really looking to seeing this movie, it had all the workings of what could have been a great film, but it just didn't deliver. Based on the story topic, it should have been knocked out of the ballpark, but to me, it fell completely flat. I'm even having a hard time remembering what I saw because I was so bored throughout the film and left feeling like what I just saw was forgettable pretentious garbage.
