The Wrong Fiancé

This one was just too predictable for my liking. Abby needs to get away from her psycho stalker ex Richard who's always watching her even though she's a professional photographer? Vivica portrays her boss. Too many plot holes and a subpar script made this movie wrong! Would not watch again@

As vanilla as vanilla comes, Jessica. No real range or depth here, just your typical cheap, basic tricks.

This director needs a lesson in tension building on a shoe string budget.

These wrong movies have become the fast food option of LMN.

I'm sorry, but this movie was just not it. Jennifer Morisson's character was weird in this and there was not nearly enough Vivica. Of course, she stole every scene she was in. But every scene with Jennifer made me cringe. The one star is for Vivica, and that's it.

This was the usual LMN thriller movie which is fun to watch. My comments:

1. Jason-Shane Scott portrays the psycho fiance very well.

2. Abby's love interest was a nice guy but looked rather scrawny - Richard was a better pick.

3. Nice to see 1980's heartthrob Michael Pare still working (he's my age).

4. I like Vivica with longer hair, yet she added the usual touch of class to the movie.

5. It should have been called "Psycho Fiance", but then we wouldn't have Vivica.

As long as you don't expect a big-budget blockbuster, the Lifetime / LMN movies are a fun thing to pass the time.

It seems that was true as far as wardrobe goes, at least. They couldn't afford enough shirts for the men in the movie to wear!

Seriously, though, they also re-used shots from other movies. A scene where a guy dressed in black, wearing a hoodie, is walking up a stairway at night toward the house the main female character lives in, is used in both this and "The Wrong Real Estate Agent". It's the exact same shot, reused. In fact, all the exterior shots are of the same house in both movies. Hey, why not? The two movies were directed by the same director, and written by the same screenwriter. One actress is in both movies, too, and I don't mean just Vivica A. Fox.

So, if you haven't watched this already, but have seen other Lifetime movies, you've already seen this plot. These movies are all interchangeable. You'll see the usual gaping plot holes, and what I like to call the "Lifetime Rules". The one used here: if you temporarily injure the bad guy who has a weapon, don't take the weapon away; just run! That's always the best strategy!

In the case of these "The Wrong ..." movies, you also know what Vivica A. Fox is going to say at the end. The only fun part is waiting to see when she will say it.

5 stars might be generous for this generic TV movie. But I graded a bit on a curve, being fully aware of what to expect.
