My Guardian Angel

A no-budget drama that takes an awfully long time to bring its supernatural undertones to the fore. Young Holly Jacobson gives an unexpectedly strong performance as the non-verbal autistic girl of abusive parents who appears to be haunted by her dead twin. Jacobson aside, the quality of the acting ranges from tolerable to pull-you-out-of-the-movie-and-slap-you-around-the-face bad and the lack of funds is apparent in every shot. The emotional pull of child abuse - even when inadequately explored - gives My Guardian Angel a kind of built-in emotional hold that is difficult to turn away from, but the pay-off really doesn't justify your time.

I agree with some of the reviews when it comes to the acting of the parents.... you definitely want The parents to die watching this movie. And, I felt there was something lacking in the middle when it came to the voodoo. Maybe the writer didn't want it to be too magical. I did find myself feeling what Hannah was going through throughout the movie. And I found myself hating the Primary teacher for being so ignorant. Yes, The beginning is slow, it needs to be slow so you can get into the feeling that the writer intended for you to feel. Be patient, it's worth it to see the ending for its revenge. .

This British T. V movie is good in parts and the young girl is played very well, by a young actress. Some of the adult performances are hit and miss (at best). The story to its credit keeps you watching, where some much higher productions loose the interest.

I guess overall I'd rate this a 3.7 or so. But, OMG! The abuse her parents put the poor autistic girl through was terrible, but u just vouldnt look away! In the different abuse scenes? YOU BELIEVED IT! YOU WERE RIGHT THERE WITH HER EXPERIENCING THE PAIN AND TERROR!! Not since The Exorcist have I seen an actress hit her part dead on! Anybody that knows of an autistic xhild, can relate! Ms. HIill is going places in the acting biz!

Don't bother with it, it's loaded with bad acting, boring dialogue, a predictable story, and overall a waste of time.

This is not worth being on any streaming services. Amazon Prime showed an IMDb review of 7.8 and I made the mistake of not double checking it.
