Comme une proie dans ma maison

The premise of the movie is actually very interesting, and they had a great cast (Michael Welch, in particular) but the dialogue just felt a bit cringey to me. Cheesy may be a better word.

I appreciate the artistry of filmmaking and in that light, I give it a 6/10. I like to find my own symbolism in the movies I watch, something I can grab from it, but it was a little hard to do that with this film.

Strong premise, poorly executed. Michael Welch and Chelsea Ricketts did a wonderful job, given the script they were given to work with. Could have been better.

I actually am watching this as we speak. Almost turned the station from the beginning. I wonder, do you people who produce it, ever watch it on television when it comes on? I won't watch it again. It has been so annoying to try and hear what is being said. The background noise is too much. There shouldn't be any background noise when people are talking. Ever. I have extremely good hearing. Do you think we can just put the caption on, which is just as annoying. If you had watched this, you would have thought the same thing I did.

Amanda (Chelsea Ricketts) gets attacked in her own home by a masked man. She manages to escape into the bathroom and the cops arrive after her friend calls 911. James Dawson is the overly helpful police detective. Detective Valencia tells Amanda about the rash of break-ins and suggests getting a gun. Valencia suspects Dawson of wrong doing and is killed by a masked man setting it up as a suicide. Dawson insinuates himself into her life as her 24 hour guardian. Liam is her ex who wants to be more than her business partner.

This is not a mystery since so much of it is revealed from the start. All the tension is drained. There is no drama in the drama. The only surprise is that every male role is a murdering scumbag. Even the one big surprise is revealed way before it's revealed. There is no thought to the script. The first dumb scene is Valencia's murder. It's a series of conveniently orchestrated events. She can't be carrying one of those window glass punch. She has to usually leave her gun in her car which cops should never do. Cops are supposed to lock it up at home. It's definitely not supposed to be left in their cars. It's really bad when one has to do a lot of logic gymnastics even if it is a Lifetime movie. It is downright infuriating. It becomes a wait-a-thon until a specific murder when another obvious suspect is illuminated. Honestly, I would have been more impress if the Captain turns out to be the other killer.

Usually when I watch TV I am on the computer the entire time, but today I watched this movie and actually paid attention to it. I thought it was thrilling and the acting was pretty good.

It isn't that hard to guess the baddie, but this time I didn't mind because I wanted to see what all the person would do. In order for that to happen on screen, it needed to be revealed up front who it was.

I liked the "twist" at the end. I had no trouble hearing a single word due to background noise. What background noise? I'm confused.

Saw this last night, would have turned over but hubby was actually in to it. The acting is so awful - the whole cast surely haven't had an acting lesson in their life?? One to avoid unless you want a showcase in how not to do it.
