Girl in the Video

The characters ask dumb questions or say things that wouldn't matter in such a situation. When asked for a description of the boy Krissy was talking to online, her friend only said "dark hair and 17." Uh, usually the first identifier is race, something that narrows down the possibilities right away.

The kidnapping came too soon. Viewers need time to get to know the character before we care about what happens to them.

And I agree with another poster. If the movie is filmed in the UK and all the actors are British...why not just set it in the UK? Crazy.

Last but not least, why is no care given to black actress's hair? There are plenty of black stylists who are available to work on movies. And what's more, most black stylists can do all kinds of hair because black people HAVE all types of hair from straight to kinky. Most non-black stylists don't know how to do any type of hair but their own.

First I want to say that this is a messed up world where perverts pay to watch children being abused.

I found this movie difficult to watch, but important to bring public awareness of catfishing. I knew going in that it would be hard to watch. So I tried to brace myself for things I would most likely see, or things that would be implied. But there is no way to prepare yourself for knowing that a child is being abused. It's just heartbreaking.

I've followed Cush Jumbo's career since her role in The Good Wife.

She plays Krissy's (Tia May Watts), the abducted girl's mother. I thought she did a good job. I think I heard her British accent creep in just once, very slightly.

I thought everyone was good in their roles, and the acting was above average for an LMN/Lifetime movie.

I don't care how savvy we think we are, catfishing is getting more and more dangerous. We must all be vigilant.

The ending made me emotional.

I thought this was a good movie and I pray will teach youngsters about the dangers of social media, I thought the acting was good throughout despite all the other negative reviews on here. Cush Jumbo has been in a lot of excellent British dramas and is a good actor even with an American accent. Tia May Watson was also very good playing the unfortunate victim in this movie.

The one question I have is why all the actors are acting American when the they are all British and the movie was filmed in Norfolk in the UK. Why not just have it as a movie based in The UK?

I'm keen to hear from Americans the thoughts on The Brits American accents.

Give the movie a chance.

I thought the plot was very interesting, but the production quality is so low, i thought i was watching a Tubi movie. The acting wasnt that great from anyone except for the Agent, the ending was the most anti-climatic thing ive ever witnessed, i thought i accidentally paused the movie for a second, It was really unrealistic, no cop, mostly with the cops, the words they used, their emotions, just not how regular police work, and also the attire, very "not actually a cop" ive seen halloween movies more detailed. Overall, not a movie i would watch again but im sure those actors will improve and i wish them the best.

This film takes a sobering look at the so-called Dark Web, and it becomes highly technical with such terms as "sock pocket" and "Tor onion." In the placid community of Haverbrook, an unsuspectiing fifteen-year-old is kidnapped by a deranged "catfisher," who streams her period of captivity to a psychopathic clientele on the internet.

Young Krissy Meyer is the victim of the kidnapping. Her devoted mom Mo and her loving brother Robbie desperately assist the FBI in discovering the whereabouts of their loved one.

There is nothing I can add to the review of user "Chartreuse1," who has provided a superb recap of this powerful film. One of the points made by the reviewer was that the cast was entirely British. It was a amazing to observe how successfully the actors adopted American accents for members of the Haverbrook community.
