Perfect Child

I'm not sure where other reviews get the 'kept guessing up to the end' part. You know almost instantly who is responsible for what is going on. Easily the single most predictable movie of the decade. Primarily based on 'The Bad Seed'.

You know the plot, and the writers go with the usual red herring between two characters, but the blatant attempt to get you to think one way is badly written and executed. You know who it is and are never really swayed from that opinion.

This being said, the film is a vehicle for the main character, Sarah Daniels. Rebecca Budig does great with a weak script. Nicole Munoz also shines. Lochlyn Munro and Jody Thomson are ineffectual throughout.

The best this movie is that it passes a lazy afternoon, if you happen to stumble upon it. Despite its weaknesses in script, Terry Ingram directs well and presents us with a mildly entertaining afternoon, where we don't have to put much thought into the process of watching.
