Killing Daddy

This was a great film. I enjoyed watching it. Elizabeth Gillies was a terrific selection for the lead. I thought that the storyline was terrific. There was some room for improvement but it was still good. Some parts of this film are slow. This film reveals to viewers a real close insight and depth of mental and psychological health. There are multiple issues out in the world that not many people are aware of.

For instance, I have had a rare syndrome since I was born. The topic of the rare syndrome that I have and other rare syndromes are not discussed nor heard about much. Health issues need to be heard more around the world. This film reveals a small fraction of that. Viewers would learn and enjoy watching this film.

Killing Daddy is an intense drama about a young girl, Callie, with deep psychological problems who wants revenge for what her father did to her and her mother. It's a beautiful, intense and also a sad story, well written and very well performed. Callie is played by Elizabeth Gillies and she really has done an amazing job. It's really impressive how she manages to play a very disturbed girl in a way that makes you relate to her and feel with her. This lifts this what otherwise would be a typical lifetime movie to a different level. Gillies is able to make Callie a versatile character both strong and vulnerable, and this makes it to me her best movie so far. It shows her potential to become a very big star in the future, no doubt about that.

Vapid characters and acting. 2/3 through the movie I reviewed the IMDb user reviews to see why it got a 7.0 rating and only then decided to finish watching it. Characters are shallow and under developed with clichéd performances....interest in movie relies upon plot twists from left field....actually; couldn't wait for it to be over. Might appeal to the under 16 yr old crowd. Waste of bandwidth and a movie to be totally forgotten in cinematic history. :( I enjoy all sorts of low budget thrillers; but this one is a high budget non movie. I can't understand why it has a 7.0 rating here. Usually I rely on the IMDb ratings but in this case we are totally at odds.

I totally agree with the good reviews this movie got. Killing Daddy's easily the best TV movie I've ever seen. Interesting plot, and very good acting of the main character. I love how the story is told from Callie's point of view so you relate to her even though she is the 'bad guy' (well, girl) in the story. Elizabeth Gillies', who plays Callie, acting is outstanding, she's the other reason you completely relate to Callie. Very well done. The story has a good build up and leads to a dramatic finale. It really captured me and I was really impressed both by the story as the acting. Killing Daddy is my new favorite TV movie! I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes a good psychological thriller/drama.

I loved hating the character of Elizabeth Gillies A good thriller.
