Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
brooksd805 Horrible, horrible acting!!! The lead actress, who starred in That 70's Show, was the worst actor! The title caught my attention. The camera work was fine. This movie could have been great, but the acting (if that's what they call it) ruined it for me! The plot or story line was interesting and should have been adapted with other actors and actresses. I really wish I could have liked it but I literally sat waiting for it to end. It wants 10 lines to submit a review but this movie isn't even worth 10 lines! What a waste of time! I probably need to read the books instead. From what I've read on here the books are better. I wish I would have read the reviews before the movie so I hadn't wasted all my time sitting through a movie with actors who are trying too hard to work with the little talent they had!
SnoopyStyle Eve Duncan (Laura Prepon) is an artist who lost her girl to murderer Robert Fraser who refuses to reveal her final location. He's executed taking the secret to his grave. 10 years later, Eve is now a forensic artist and there's a mass grave. Somebody steals a body, and taunts her with clues. He threatens little Jane but Eve is too late to save her mother. Eve feels the girl is a stand-in for her dead daughter, and she takes her away to protect her from the killer.I like the start of this movie. It has a good TV police procedural feel to it. As the movie continues, the twists and turns confuse the story. Characters that seems to be important come in and disappear for long stretches. There is a distinct lack of action in this movie. It's a Lifetime movie based on a crime novel. It was probably not transferred that well. The budget isn't there for anything exciting or compelling. Laura Prepon does an OK job, and could probably star in her own TV police procedural.
kgummel1 I was able to watch about 10 minutes before I had to turn it off in fear of throwing the actual book this movies was based on at the TV. The actress who played Eve had no concept of the character at all. It felt like she was reading the lines with no emotion for the first time. The actor chosen to play Joe...seriously? Could they have chosen anyone less likely to be "Joe"? Just wondering if anyone actually watched this before they aired it? As I said I only watched about 10 minutes but 2 was all you needed to see that they completely butchered the book and even if they had wanted to butcher the book, they could have at least had decent actors to make a fairly decent movie. By far the worst movie ever. Stick with the books, they are amazing.
sail1993-344-337437 Could any mother be colder? Throughout the entire film I never felt any sympathy for the main character whose daughter had be kidnapped and murdered ten years prior. Eve was one of the most coldest characters I've ever seen. If you read her books you love her and want to see her get answers concerning her daughters death. Even when she was supposedly in mortal danger she was stiff as a board. This actress couldn't show emotion if her life depended upon it. Who cast this film? These books had feeling, drama, heartbreak and emotion. NONE of which played out in this film. The connection between the main character and the FBI agent played a minimal role and had it been shown to it's full extent would have explained the role of Jane logically. The author should have held out for more reputable writers and producers. Keep the book, burn the movie.
