BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Geeky Randy While coping with the events following a car accident caused by her, recovering alcoholic Heise moves to Shelter Hills to rekindle with longtime friend Anderson, who has offered her a position at a firm. Things appears to be patching up nicely, especially when she meets dreamboat Cupo at the grocery store parking lot. Not only does he turn out to be a candidate in the county elections, he is also turns her friend's husband… oh, yeah, and a suspect in a murder investigation. Does a pretty decent job with the twists and turns, and the acting is better than most Lifetime Movies. Like of lot of these types, there is an overload on characters for the mere purpose of having lots suspects, a crutch to distract us from piecing things together too easily. Definitely worth the watch if you are completely bored or have a taste for cheap TV-movies.**½ (out of four)

wes-connors In the opening scene, an attractive blonde is pursued and killed by a camera-shy assailant. We quickly learn this occurs in the desolate woods of a small town called Shelter Hills. Coincidently, another pretty blonde arrives in town, from Michigan, pulled over by cute officer Jeremy Guilbaut (as Grady Williams). Intending to start a new life, former alcohol abuser Annie Heise (as Sandy Cooper) maimed a lad while drunk-driving and was deprived of her family fortune in a resulting lawsuit. However, she has accepted responsibility and wants to stay off the sauce. A paralegal, Ms. Heise gets a job courtesy of her old school-mate Kendra Anderson (as Karen), who also took to Shelter Hills. Her tall, dark and handsome husband Antonio Cupo (as David Waterford) is running for county supervisor. This is strictly production-line TV movie story-telling, from director Terry Ingram and the crew. What's "Good" is that is concludes in under 85 minutes. Heise doesn't qualify as a "Mistress" and the fact that a character chooses to date her in the town's most public places – including the local coffee shop and bar – is ludicrous.**** The Good Mistress (2/15/14) Terry Ingram ~ Annie Heise, Antonio Cupo, Kendra Anderson, Jeremy Guilbaut

Sherazade This was pitiful. A suspense thriller riddled with bad acting, bad script, unbelievable scenarios and an over-the-top climax. Sandy, a woman haunted by her tragic past and lingering demons moves to a new town where she runs into and old friend who helps her get back on her feet by finding her a job and a good place to stay. She (Sandy) meets a mysterious man with whom she has a brief but intense relationship and soon after finds out that this man is actually her friend Karen's husband. Things in town begin to go awry when another woman linked to Karen's husband turns up dead and Sandy begins to suspect that her ex-lover might be a serial killer. The film's only saving grace is its attractive cast and maybe the fact that it was a made-for-television fête which hopefully kept the budget low.

decemberangel1286 This movie totally sucked and there was no plot. there was a bad acting job. where did they come up with the storyline? the storyline was totally awful, and the wife committed all the crimes? Who would believe that? and who would make the husband the fall guy for all of the problems? That is just totally awful. To make everyone believe that you didn't know anything and that you act like nothing is wrong when in reality you know about your own husband's affairs. No wife would ever do anything terrible such as this. Save your time and don't watch this movie, this is a bunch of crap. This movie should not even be put on DVD, and if you thought safe haven was so bad this is worse than Safe Haven. this so cliché, the same storyline over and over? oh get a new theme people, like the wife don't know anything? get a new storyline people.
