Avis à la une
Classed as a drama/thriller but plays more as a thriller. Very watchable even though it can be slow at times.The film could be predictable but is still surprising. Highlights several interesting points about crime,opportunity and their consequences. Good acting by Danielle Savre and believable story. There are some underlying warnings and good advice in the film without it been preaching.After watching the film I was not left wondering what would happen next as all ends were tied up. Good scenes and filmography.An enjoyable film for a good night viewing.
I would recommend watching this thriller.

Probably a four star movie, but I gave it five because it exceeds the expectations I would have for a Lifetime movie.
The acting was decent all around. No Oscar performances but better quality than most other made-for-tv movies.
The general premise isn't so bad, especially considering it came out in 2016. Unfortunately the movie makes up a lot of nonsense, such as Net Drivers not being informed of a customer's destination until they are in the car (the movie pretty much falls apart if this nonsense didn't exist).
More nonsense involves the ridiculous rules regarding warrants that this movie made up.
I do give this movie credit for it's ending.
I wish the baby mask had been explained.

This film has a straight story line and pursues it quickly to a neatly tied ending. It seems to have 2 agendas: To point out the lack of safety surrounding the Uber fad for both passengers & drivers; and to serve as a poetic justice platform surrounding the vulnerability of the female population. Trudi is the strong, determined victim, and if the film decides to change its name for a 3rd time, may I recommend "Wrong Chick".
I found it entertaining and provocative and the acting was actually not bad. My biggest concern are those who think this film's only purpose (or LifeTime's) it to make men look bad. If you feel like this film is pointing a finger at you, you might need to do some soul searching.
For me, the ending was a bit rushed and let a lot for the viewer to reach conclusions about. I don't like when a film does a lot of hand-holding, but I do like a bit more clarity. As someone in the legal field, I know they'll need to have the Detective's confidence to push this through court with that narrative. But that, too, would be poetic justice.
I don't think everyone will appreciate this film the way someone who's actually been in similar situations might. It's definitely not a date film.

...but the writers left out the good parts!
I loved the little gang of bangers. They were pretty convincing as not so bad guys. The real bad guys very slimy enough to give themselves away. The baby? I don't understand his role here but, whatever.
This movie had so much going for it and just as it got good......yeah, that's how I felt.

Beautiful blonde criminal justice student Danielle Savre (as Trudy O'Donnell) thinks she's getting into a legitimate "NetCar" (as "Uber") after partying at a nightclub. As it turns out, the driver is a fake. He drugs and rapes his victims, after arriving in a black sedan that looks like a legitimate car. Most people just hop in the vehicle and give their address. Understandably traumatized, Ms. Savre has trouble warming up to attractively muscular Jackson Davis (as Donovan), who seems like an ideal catch. She's not interested in slightly chubby Kevin Cox (as Charles), a "NetCar" driver and fellow student. After learning how long it takes to investigate rape cases, Savre decides to take matters into her own hands. She gets a job as a driver for the same company, hoping to stalk, identify and nip the rapist...
Writer-director John Stimpson's "The Wrong Car" contains a valuable lesson: make sure you know your driver is authentic...
It's also an engaging and nicely produced story. Casting is perfect, right down to sleazy motel clerk Rhet Kidd (as Roger) and concerned detective Christina Elmore (as Jackson). There are some problems accepting various plot developments, however. While strained, we're going pardon Savre for putting roommate Francia Raisa (as Gretchen) in deadly danger. It's stupid, but we all do stupid things. The last shot (of alcohol) at the nightclub, before the endeavor, is dumb multiplied. But, the characters leaving the scene of a possible rape to go have coffee - and with a police investigator, no less - is the real deal breaker. No good "Lifetime TV Movie" cop or heroine would do such a thing. If the pretty blonde heroine can skip showering for three days, she can wait a few hours to help a drugged rape victim.

Le saviez-vous
- GaffesThe suspect at the motel room says police need a warrant to search it. That's partially incorrect as police pursuant to California Penal Code Section 836 may initiate a search or seizure without a warrant if there is a probable cause to believe that a felony has been committed. Additionally, the suspect did verbally consent after he mentioned the warrant, making his objection moot.
