The Wrong Car

I'm not the demographic for Lifetime original movies, primarily because I'm male and you know how Lifetime movies play out.

To quote Family guy

Announcer: This Tuesday on Lifetime: Valerie Bertinelli stars in a Lifetime Original Movie. Valerie: Y'know, Doctor, you said you were going to cure my cancer, but all you did was rape me! I'm starting to think I don't have cancer at all. Doctor: Well, you're right. About the rape part. But I'm sorry, you still do have cancer. Valerie: *bursts into tears* Announcer: Valerie Bertinelli in: Men Are Terrible And Will Hurt You Because This Is Lifetime.

Every Lifetime movie is pretty damn misandric. Within moments of the movie starting and with no clues as to what the plot was I assumed rape and that is exactly what the film revolves around.

However despite all this The Wrong Car is a remarkably well made little film which though fairly predictable actually manages to entertain and build to a really quite good finale.

If you don't like Lifetime originals this is still probably not for you and as man it's very easy to be quite offended by these films but for what it is this is fairly good.

The Good:

Oddly good around round

Great finale

The Bad:

Misandric

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

One day a Lifetime movie will surprise me and it won't be about rape or an abusive partner and every guy in the movie won't be a bad guy. Alas that day is not today

Probably a four star movie, but I gave it five because it exceeds the expectations I would have for a Lifetime movie.

The acting was decent all around. No Oscar performances but better quality than most other made-for-tv movies.

The general premise isn't so bad, especially considering it came out in 2016. Unfortunately the movie makes up a lot of nonsense, such as Net Drivers not being informed of a customer's destination until they are in the car (the movie pretty much falls apart if this nonsense didn't exist).

More nonsense involves the ridiculous rules regarding warrants that this movie made up.

I do give this movie credit for it's ending.

I wish the baby mask had been explained.

not complicated, expected turn of events, expected the suspects from the very beginning even before the incident happen because there is no room for other suspects actually. Some events are not logical at all. most of the school scenes were unnecessary because they start with an idea they but the scenario writer decided not to go on with any side arguments and to focus on the main story, that's why they were unnecessary . its watchable. but I really hated the guts of the main actress playing the "rebellion vigilante" I would advise that you make this your last option to watch

that's all!!

Classed as a drama/thriller but plays more as a thriller. Very watchable even though it can be slow at times.The film could be predictable but is still surprising. Highlights several interesting points about crime,opportunity and their consequences. Good acting by Danielle Savre and believable story. There are some underlying warnings and good advice in the film without it been preaching.After watching the film I was not left wondering what would happen next as all ends were tied up. Good scenes and filmography.An enjoyable film for a good night viewing.

I would recommend watching this thriller.

Another TV movie whose title has been changed to the Wrong Car. I guess Originally the movie was called Vehicle For Revenge. Anyways it's about a woman who gets in a car she thinks is some Ride Co. To take her home and gets rufied and ends up sexually assaulted. The movie is subpar at best, but it really takes a turn to the stupid once the suspect in the case goes back and picks up women at the same spot, in the same car, and takes them to the same hotel, after already knowing he is a suspect and the police could be watching him. Really really dumb. 3/10.
