This was bad from beginning to end. I watched it all the way through so as to give a legitimate review. This film is actually as bad as the majority of the reviews. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the bad reviews are even from the actors who signed up for this misadventure.

Do yourself a favour if you are considering watching this ... don't. Call your mother instead. She'd love to hear from you!

I was watching a different movie (Cliffhanger) where the hero had a shoulder injury that conveniently came and went as required by the plot and was reminded of this movie. Our hero in this movie was shot in the leg in the first scene. It's quite a serious injury. Her doctor says something about amputation being necessary if she refuses to stay off it.

The first thing our hero does is toss her walker in the trash and devote all her energies to racing about. She climbs stairs, runs(!), climbs through windows, chases down suspects, etc. Pretty much anything and everything other than resting her leg. She limps at times, hobbles at other times, and walks normally the rest of the time.

Though suspended from the police department, she breaks and enters, threatens a potential suspect with her gun, and steals evidence from him. Her illegal activities culminate in her shooting a suspect.

Three stars because this was a pretty bad movie but the rampant continuity errors with the leg injury made it memorable.

This is just a TV film and its quality is medium, it is OK in overall.

I love bad lifetime movies, but man this movie was just awful, and not in an it's so bad, it's good way. The main character is beyond irritating and totally unlikable. She's a terrible cop who gets injured in the line of duty, and then becomes a terrible 911 operator who ignores a kid calling for help, which results in him being murdered. The rest of the movie is spent feeling sorry for herself, drinking, impersonating a cop, breaking into people's houses, and waving her gun at people until she somehow solves the crime. And at the end is rewarded as a hero despite basically spending the entire movie being incompetent and committing felonies. Don't watch this movie, do something less painful, like eating glass.
