My Daughter's Psycho Friend

I enjoy this type of movies a lot . Very Good movie worth watching . Enjoyed every moments

This film starts out as the atypical high school teenagers story. It's decent during the 30 minutes, but it quickly goes downhill from there. The main character, who is a flawed, but noble girl, makes some of the dumbest decisions I've ever seen. The worst part of this was the villain, Lexi. I'm not going to spoil it, but this movie fails horribly at suspending disbelief. There were so many face palm moments it was pathetic. This film honestly should have been a comedy. Plot points are left unresolved, resulting in a mess. It's sad that Lifetime movies have great build-up based on the trailers, and end up being damn near trash.

Was that supposed to be a comedy? If not, it was horrible. And can they say GHB one more time...uggghhh

I hunted this weekend for lifetime movies. I like that they are wholesome but intense but not traumatizing. I also want to move to LA and I know these movies are often filmed in California settings (Walking the Halls, Death Clique, Teenage Bank Heist, etc). I try to be objective and rate movies based off of what they are. If this was a worldwide theatrically released or streamed movie, I would be confused. But for a TV movie on family cable, this is totally fine. It's rather simple: New small town girl in a rich suburb tries to fit in with a disturbed spoiled queen bee and her sidekick friends, but might become the hero after a student ends up dead at an underage party. It'll do.

It is true though that the acting is bad, but that's probably due to the writing and directing style. The director has all the right and power to say CUT. If these girls are ever over the top, flat tone or face, or speaking oddly or unrealistically like "Yes. We must stop her" saying each letter as well when American teens instead often would say "yea, we gotta stop her." Or if they are saying "get off me, please stop" just like that, no emotion despite the situation, while a crazy killer is attempting to push you down the stairs...then the director should immediately stop the take lol but he let them carry on and sent it through anyway.

But at the same time, it's ok. California especially the Greater Los Angeles area is saturated with layers and levels of the talent industry. There's amateur to indie to mainstream and superstardom. There's millions of people competing and performing in each level. So these girls are living their actress dreams, I guess...which is great. It's just this film isn't great. But it's not bad. I did gasp and pikachu face out of surprise a lot while watching (maybe I'm in a good mood. Or maybe it's because I didn't read the summary before watching so I had no clue what it was about). For people who did know what it's about, maybe they were let down.

I do notice though that there's so many negative movies around, and lifetime lacks light hearted comedies unless they're silly romances.

I rated 8 when she recording her but astonishingly that recording wasn't even used and the last 5 minutes changed my mind to lower my rating dramatically.
