A Mother on the Edge

What ridiculously dumb movie! You want to keep watching just to see how stupid it can be! Thank goodness for the fast forward button.

It was too difficult to focus on the plot and acting with that ridiculous, repetitive thumping sound track, which was too overpowering, loud.

The plot may have been okay IF we were able to endure that background noise, which made if difficult to hear the dialogue too.

Too bad movie. Typical theieves and crime. Predictable events in the 2nd half of the movie. Quick finished. Holes in the story. Lack of good enough detailed intro and more full explanation of events. Funny a bit. Good idea. SImilar in story to Unsane (2018) but not even comparable to that great movie. Bit of lack of emotions, facial expressions, and reality. Most stuff is boring, looks fake, and is done too quick. No adventure. Only beginning has some quality, while the rest is not worth watching. Nothing interesting to discover by the end. Typical chasing of criminal and trying to prove the truth, although extreme beginning. So extreme to not even look real but like comedy, joke, sci-fi.

It's an ok movie, but I started getting annoyed when the mother kept going crazy, screaming, looking crazy, and kept losing her temper.

I have a chronic illness, so I will admit that I watch a lot of movies and I love Lifetime movies, the cheesier the better ;) My favorites are the mystery/moms in distress, so this sounded perfect. Boy was I disappointed.

The lead actress was very appealing, but that's as far as I can go with positive things to say. You always know where these movies are going but this one was just ridiculous. And the fight scene... I'm all for female empowerment but that was just ridiculous.

Also, I know that a lot of Lifetime movie are made in Canada and star Canadian actors, but a HUGE pet peeve of mine is when an actor (the husband in this case) slips out of their American accent. He even asks to use the washroom instead of the bathroom. I actually laughed out loud when he said that!
