Don't Sell My Baby

I enjoy off-Hollywood movies, they tend to be rather original or at least have a good plot. Often it's refreshing to watch new actors and actresses as well - and maybe a new angle of photography. But in order to keep my focus the movie must have at more good than bad when it comes to;

• Actors
• Photography
• Editing
• Script

This movie (at least the first 22 minutes I managed to watch) comes up short on too many of the above mentioned points too keep my interest for the remaining part of the movie.

Movies, art, food are all a matter of taste, but this one is definitely not my cup of tea. The suspence which should be there is ruined by the bad acting, and the huge B-Movie impression that hit you already after a few minutes.

High school senior, Nicolette, has bounced around from foster home to home. When she finds herself pregnant by the school quarterback, she quickly falls into despair until her sympathetic teacher, Sandy, takes Nicolette under her wing. But, when Nicolette disappears after deciding against the idea of putting her baby up for adoption, Sandy begins to worry that the soon-to-be teen mom may have been taken against her will.

Another entertaining Lifetime thriller which follows a teen living at a hostel for teens who is worried about her missing pregnant friend - later she gets run over. Our teen heroine is up the creek too with a baby on the way - cue: a beautiful yet slimy head of an adoptive agency appears and she's thrown in danger. The plot is predictable but it's got enough twists to keep one watching. The teen heroine can be unlikeable with her bratty attitude but she changes for the good.

Out of all these types of films I've seen it's certainly not the best. We open to an unknown girl somewhere then to a classroom were the students look older than they are supposed to be. The main focus though is Bridgett. Her friend Becca is that one that goes missing in the start who is pregnant and it becomes clear why. Bridgette was also unlucky and becomes preggers. Also at the main stage is her teacher, who gets worried for her not turning up and goes to find out. It's one of your run of the mill types but the acting is not really that bad in this. The plot lacked more action but it was something to watch which was not terrible.
