Dirty Little Secret

Jack (Jack Wagner) is a sheriff in a small town called Caldwell in Oregon. He is married to Ellie, who is a real estate agent and they have a 10 year old son named Charlie, who Jack pushes around a lot. Sarah is young and on the run with her fugitive boyfriend Ray and his friends. When they arrive in Oregon Sarah acts like she has seen a ghost. In order to make some money she stalks Jack's family and comes up with a plan to kidnap Charlie. Ray and his friends agree to Sarah's plan, but what they don't know is that she has her own agenda. Jack Wagner is gorgeous, but I hate it when he plays the bad guy. When he doesn't use his irony like he did on Melrose Place after season 3 the character doesn't suit him. Tracey Gold played Sarah, she did a great job and it's nice to see her do serious roles. All around the movie wasn't bad.

Grips you for the whole time and leaves you feeling you enjoyed the movie!!

I saw this on HBO and found it uninspiring and bland. It is the story of a kidnapping of an adopted child ostensibly for money but in reality ... yes, you guessed it ... by the real mother. The characters are credible although they are very plastic and the is a neat little twist to the plot which rewarded my perseverance in watching to the end. All in all this is as entertaining as a pizza but is certainly no gourmet meal.

I couldn't stop thinking about this movie and I totally enjoyed it the whole way through. It had a really interesting twist at the end too. You won't regret watching this one!
