The Wrong Stepmother

This is a lifetime movie so not much is expected. I've seen better lifetime movies than this though. It was almost comical even though it's a "thriller". I literally laughed out loud at some of the acting and scenarios. It was entertaining even if the plot was cliché.

I don't know where you got a four-point anything from these reviews the user reviews are basically one which is where I am unless I could've given it a zero the only thing I can think of is when I looked at the so-called critic reviews they were actually favorable I don't know maybe this is a lifetime thing but everything was just so so bad there was literally nothing redeemable in this at all Not the Acting not the plot not the scenery nothing!!

This is such a bad movie. Nothing is good about the script. It does not carry a message of any kind. The lead actress Cindy Busby got that mean look, and that was the only reason she got this role as a villainess. But her acting is horrible. She can never act as a heroine in different flicks. The kid actors did way better than she. Vivica Fox only had a cameo appearance. Obviously this production wasn't able to hire her for the entire shoot. Her name was used as a bait to lure some moviegoers, which apparently didn't work. That's such a typical tactic for this kind of C-movie. I watched on Amazon Prime for free. I couldn't finish it. Now I want my time back.

The first thing I notice are the lines in the script is not how people actually speak in real life. Especially the teenagers. Seems like someone in their 40s, who is disconnected from any current social circles, wrote the script. Now. I'm a big fan of Cindy Busby. So she is the saving grace in this for me. The acting is as good as any TV movie. Not terrible but not Hollywood either. It's just the terrible lines that kills it for me! You have been forewarned!

Bad, just terrible. Really the rating should be a 0 Spoiler alert, this movie sucks!
