Maternal Instinct

Laura Mennell is such a bad actress in this. And her character is creepy.

Seriously if someone kissed and caressed a young girl the way she did, they'd be on a register.

It was her character and her terrible portrayal that made this a bad movie.

The editing fails... so many bloopers added to make this film from being just bad to terrible .

If you can handle the opening sequence where a mother who is driving with her daughter stumbles upon a murder being committed, and the stupid mother decides not to slam on the gas pedal to get out of dodge, but instead thinks the best thing to do is jump into the backseat and cower/whimper along with her daughter only to (duh) get shot.... then this movie if for you.

Let's just say this mother has very little maternal instinct (or survival instinct).

I still gave it a shot, and so many implausible things happen, it became a chore to get through. The crybaby girl was hard to watch, her acting was pretty awful.

Some Lifetime movies are worth the watch, but not this one.

Very good movie ! Enjoyed every single moment . The girl is so cute

Bad, bad, bad writing. Lack of continuity check and motivation. After the first few gaffes, it does get a little better, but not much.

Main character says one thing and does another, repeatedly, like, "I'll get the report to you before I leave," then "Let's go..." Short-term memory loss?

Some acting was fair to horrible. Some was good, but overall a mixed bag.

And the doctor not letting the daughter stay with the mom even though there was no immediate danger? I've known doctors like that, and they are a hazard to society. He was going to pull the plug, but the daughter showing up makes the mother stronger. Dumb!

This is exactly how you take a good idea and mangle it just enough to make it barely watchable. A better writer could have made it all so much better, even with the poorer acting.

Completely armature B grade movie at best, movie starts out with an informant wired up to do a deal with a criminal in a car park while one undercover police officer monitors the deal from blocks away, yes you read right, one undercover officer from miles away, not a team of officers, no cctv monitoring, just one undercover in a car sitting blocks away. When the first 3 minutes of a movie smacks of this much ridiculousness, you will probably struggle to sit through another 10mins let alone 90mins.
