Killing Daddy

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.

I simply am in love with this movie. I really hope it will be released on DVD so I can watch it as many times as I like. It is an intense story about family, psychological disorders, love and revenge. A cliché lifetime movie? Could have been if it was not for Elizabeth Gillies who plays main character Callie Ross. Gillies really lifts this movie to a higher level, her acting is brilliant. She makes Callie a multi dimensional character, not just the crazy girl,but also likable and funny. That makes you feel sympathy with her even though she makes all the wrong choices. I was really deeply impressed with Liz' acting, she did an outstanding job.

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.

Callie (played by Elizabeth Gillies) is pretty much the only character that is fleshed out to some extent and have an actual personality. Every other character feels too much like your typical Lifetime side characters. They're just there to move the story from Point A to Point B or contribute nothing at all.

As a whole, the movie is FAR from perfect, but due to Gillies' exceptional acting and expressions, the movie is quite enjoyable whenever she's on the screen.

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