Amnesia fatale

The bar for Lifetime thrillers is incredibly low, but this is a good start to the year. We all know it won't last, but if we can get ten movies this year of this caliber or better, that will be progress. While working from home, Lifetime (and Hallmark) movies have become my background noise during the day instead of waiting for the weekend. This is an easy watch. Lifetime had a similar movie with this plot in 2021 and I would say this one is much better (if I remember the title, I'll edit it in).

I wouldn't say there are twists and turns, but the movie is executed well. I like Kate Watson and Anna Marie Dobbins is improving, so the movie doesn't suffer from the typical Lifetime cringe and camp. All of the characters have a purpose and there's an actual beginning, middle, and end to this story.

No spoilers but one of the character's involvement, when they reveal their part actually makes sense w/o being the typical Lifetime trope. You'll see what I mean.

Watch once and decide.

A Wednesday afternoon snoring boring thriller. Badly acted. But somehow we sat through it. Predictably stupid. So many holes in the plot. How did they know she would wake up with memory loss and plan for that. I feel sorry for anyone involved in making this movie.

This movie is called Deadly Infidelity on LMN. It is predictable. You get the first clue of who the villains are at Grace's birthday party. I thought Kate Wilson as Grace did well. She was totally believable. I thought Jacob Taylor's (Kyle) role was a bit over exaggerated. But he played the part well. The detective (Jesus Ruiz) was terrible. I wish the writer had told us what was Grace's business. It appeared she made meals for home bound people. If her type of business was mentioned, I missed it. I didn't find the ending surprising at all. As I stated, there were clues throughout the movie. I just wanted to see if/how they were all caught. I think that's how these movies reel you in. You hang in there to see how the villain(s) are apprehended.

Grace has a car accident, comes out of a month-long coma, and can't remember the last 5 years. But that's only the beginning of her troubles and some of her family tries to help her recover but not all. Why not everyone? Tune in to find out. Kate Watson did a great job as Grace! Definitely recommended!

Usual music for emotions, usual "seeing things that is not there when others look" while all the other feel-good is there, followed by the ominous music.

It's a background noise type movie, nothing spectacular or rememberable.
