Scorned

I enjoy watching the lifetime channels, but this movie is painful to watch. I'm not really sure who put this cast together but the acting is D-class. The insurance salesman is way too cocky and dull. The wife is naive and empty. The husband is all over the place. This was so bad that I was only able to stomach about 20 minutes of this movie. So, to the DVR trash you go...

I kept watching thinking it will be better. Nope, it was the most boring and lame movie.

10 Stars for laughable green screen and gay content. 1 Star for this movie being poorly executed and confusing. I drink wine when I watch these movies and I'd have to "Put a Cork" in this one.

Brooke tells Wong that whatever he thinks she did, she did. What that is? I couldn't tell you.

Plot convoluted and confusing while trying to be hip, different, and jarring. Obvious use of green screen during mountain scenes. Audio so bad in places throughout film, that I had to rewind several times to play it back to try to decipher what was being said, but never could - so gaps in dialogue throughout. The dialogue that COULD be heard was nonsensical at times. Acting by all: C- at best. (And the husband with the redundant name - Steve Stevens - was totally miscast, as was the supposedly 'hot' insurance guy who looked about 16 or 17)

I caught this tv movie the other night. In recent decades, tv movies, in general, have come to outshine theatrical releases. Unfortunately, "A Lover Scorned", isn't one of them. It's a very droll and dull effort. No pizzazz. No charisma. No excitement. No melodrama. No emotion. It was as if the cast was going through a mere script reading. I would, ordinarily, rate it 4-stars out of 10. However, the story did have a number of twists and turns in it. So, I generously pushed it up to 5-stars. This project could have been and should have been much better than the finished product.
