I give it a five because the acting wasn't as bad from what I read. I can say Erica Mena and the young man Justin Sweat needs a little more acting classes, but I think didn't seem very passionate or like they were really into what they were trying to portray. Marques Houston acting isn't that bad. He needs a little more work. I give it a 5 because it's nice to see brown actors get different roles than usual. They should have took more time perfecting the scene. I feel like it was rushed. Overall fine movie. Not great!

Erica was not bad. With some acting classes she can improve alot. Keep working on ur talent. MH was a little rusty. Cynthia was a little dry but I think the character was dry.

What more can i say except that acting on this movie is doo doo sauce...avoid it!!!! The acting is sooo cringing i can barely watch it..its like they didn't give a damn and just shot it anyways lol terrible....just terrible!!!!!
I've heard the acting was bad, but i don't think that's true. The writing was worse then common scam scripts, the writing makes the acting seem much worse than it is. It's disappointing to because you can see the budget this movie had, watching it, the cinematography isn't half bad, its the writing that does it. When i saw the name and description i was counting on one of the classic, mass-produced, lifetime style thriller movies, and while I'm 100% sure that's what they wanted to do it felt more like something in between a parody and a student film drawing inspiration from these types of movies. The sub plot of the romance between the son and the neighbor is also wildly unnecessary. The characters presented aren't fleshed out enough to have you rooting for them, in fact i found my self most attached to the antagonist of the movie, the one with the most thought out story and background. Overall, the movie is choppy making time jumps every 30 minutes, and poorly written, i think had they given it another 6 months to really figure out the flaws in this movie they could have had something that was exactly what they wanted it to be and could have fitted right in with LifeTime.

This movie is god-awful. The acting, if you can call it that, is reprehensible. The son, his girlfriend, and the stepmother--were especially cringy to watch. I honestly don't know what's worse--the acting or the script. May none of them ever "act" EVER AGAIN!
Also, this movie was supposed to span months & no one ever changed hairstyles!?
Lord, please keep MH & Chris Stokes away from movies.

When I watched the 1st Stepmother, I knew I knew this lady but it took me a little while to realize it was Erica. The movie could've been good but ERICA MENA XXXTRIPLE SUCKS ACTING. I sat and watched that whole movie with my mouth dropped because I couldn't believe how bad she was and it kept me wanting to watch to see if I could find one moment of it thinking she may have potential but no she does not. She can't act to save her life. Then you guys put her in part , WHY would you do that a second time? Erica shouldhv stayed on the reality shows the big screen is not for her or should I say shes not good for the big screen. However you say it, SHE SUCKS. Please don't make a part 3 cuz I'll watch just to see her embarrass herself or may she thinks she's golden globe material. NO HONEY NOOOOOOOOO.

When I saw Marques Houston and Erica Mena I assumed this movie would be garbage. But I gave it a chance and the premise is very similar to The Stepfather (which I've seen all 4). Some of the acting is OFF from multiple characters and sort of comical, but overall the writers did try to add depth with backstories. There were some loose ends but still better than expected.

I see reviews that this movie was horrible but it was not bad at all to me. This was not blockbuster level and would make it to the big screen, and that's why it was on Tubi, so it was good. Don't over analyze it. It was more of a movie I would enjoy watching on Lifetime. It reminded me of The Stepfather movies.
The acting was not the best for some of the characters, but still a good movie to watch. I actually enjoyed it. If you are chilling at home and looking for a movie to watch on the weekend, give it a try.

The plot of the movie was a repeat. Erica Mena don't quit your Day job. Your acting SUCKS. I thought you would have been a jewel to the movie. Scotts girlfriend was more convincing than you. Just had to be honest. This movie is not worth watching but I did and it was a mistake.
Awful 1 star if I could give half a star I would . Horrible . The weaves in this are so dollar store quality. The acting is poor , the back story is similar to the step father so not a lot of twists and turns .

I just knew this was going to be a awesome movie, I was laughing non stop because of the terrible acting. The laughs were overly dramatic, everything just seemed so fake. This movie could have been way better.
The film isn't as bad as some are making it out to be. Yes the production was definitely low budget with some odd camera shots and movement. The acting was 'meh' with the actor playing the owner of the garage being the worst as he sounded like he was just reading his lines. The actor playing the father wasn't the greatest either. The best probably came from the actors playing the uncle/brother, son and the girl neighbor. The writing and story could have been far better developed as there were some questionable scenes especially the part when the son is finally convinced his stepmother is up to no good. That said; it kept my interest. Not once did I feel like I wanted to shut the film off. While in a way, it was quite predictable, you still wanted to see how it was all going to unravel. The real eye roller was the very end with the note. With out giving anything away, your left hanging for one second about the demise of one of the characters and then it's ridiculously revealed through a note! I thought that was the dumbest moment of the film. Over all, it's watchable if you have nothing better to do or watch! I've seen far worse.

The acting on this movie isn't the best that's for sure. I couldn't do what they do, but at the same time these aren't A list actors. It's freaking Erica Mena and Marcus Houston. They aren't actors. Erica is crazy, so she got that part down and you know damn well the whole time she was murdering dude she was imagining Safaree instead lmao.

Wasted an hour and change which I could have used to pick out some razor bumps .Acting was horrible, better off watching water going down the drain. Some people were born actors , others were born to stick to their lane.

The Stepmother was able to receive one star because I feel guilty about gazing at the deep cleavage-big boobie shots. Yes,I am ashamed but. I tried so hard to find something worth seeing in this film. The acting was terrible with the exception of the roles of the young boy and girl which were just bad. A plot I could not make myself care about and a script that must have been written in haste while the writer waited for Starbucks to have his order ready. I think the highlight of the film was the home décor. A nicely decorated living space. The bowling alley scenes were the other high point. Not bad enough to be good but.just bad enough to be very bad. A live appearance by the late. Tupak could not have saved this.

You know why I am here. Erica Mena.
From watching her go crazy all over Love and Hip-Hop, I definitely could see her playing a loca role. With an idea of a crazy stepmother ruining everyone's lives. Unfortunately, everyone has to start somewhere. There's a reason this is a Tubi film.
It's a television movie; I didn't expect anything more or less. The plot is interesting enough, yet the execution could be more convincing. I will only go a little in-depth. From the acting to the set up of emotion from the Dad/ Eddie (Marques Houston)and son Scott (Justin Sweat) losing their wife/ mother to the love interest between them. Eddie and Zoey ( Erica Mena).
The movie moves way too fast and doesn't allow any development to convey the characters' emotions-no time for grief, no time for love, and no comical appeal (unless we are talking about the acting), Just straight crazy and all over the place. Honestly, the movie is dull, and not much of anything makes sense; they got married on the sidewalk, but that's all you can afford on bowling alley money; speaking of the bowling alley, this movie is a gutter ball.
