Woman on the Run

A real waste of an idea with real potential. You could drive a semi through the plot holes in this movie. Very disappointing.

First of all, is this a comedy or drama? Confusing. Watching this, their are so many loopholes and plain silly plot lines. Here is a woman, not bad performance, trying to disguise herself, by adding a baseball cap and that is it. Allowing her long flowing hair to hang in front as usual. So, what's the disguise? Then she has a hoodie again with her long locks hanging outside the hood. Any fool would recognize her anywhere. Then there's the faxct she can beat up a brute with the twist of the foot in his privates. Usual LMN way of defeating a man. I always have said what if a guy kicks the woman in her privates? Has this ever been done on LMN? But then I am getting trivial. There is no surprise here and acting is fair given the material they have to work with. I give it 3 stars for attempt to make this believable.

This movie kept my attention from start to finish. Good plot. I doubt that any real Lifetime movie watchers will regret this one.

First, Sarah Butler is the main character. If you like watching Sarah run, fight and hide, you would like this movie. The story is well told. And the premise is… If nobody knows you. How could you probe your identity? The society also tends to choose who you are. Who is the good or the bad girl. Would you use questionable methods to find the truth? I didn't like much some action scenes, for moments I supposed to watch a very low budget movie. But the movie survive with a brave mom and a surprising little girl. Give it a chance. Enjoy thinking haven lost your identity. What would be like, if only the people you know is against you, and you're lonely crying for help?

As it happens to be a TV movie, one should not be too stern when assessing. Surely, there is plenty of illogical "logic" in the rather improbable story. The motivation of the antagonists successfully eludes my capability of detection.

What makes WOTR worthwhile for me after all, is the presence of Sarah Butler. An accomplished actress, imbued with stamina and character - let alone her stunning beauty - who is ignored by major producers and filmmakers. Why? I truly do not know.

Therefore it is pity the only significant motion picture she appeared in is the remake of I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE. Here she proved how refined her thespian skills are - her intonation and enunciation especially. But, the thing is, ISOYG is a film per se unwatchable for many.

To sum up, I hope things will change and Sarah Butler will be better spotted and garner more attention. Looking forward to A movies starring this promising talented actress.
