Contra a Corrente

Yet another Lifetime movie with a changed title (Betrayed By My Husband) to mislead viewers into thinking it's a new movie they haven't seen before. These shamelessly dishonest ploys by such a major network as Lifetime are nothing short of despicable: not only changing titles and year of release, but also calling old movies "premieres" when they've been shown many times over the years since their original release. LMN should not be allowed to be so blatantly deceptive.

As for this movie - it deserves 2 out of 10 due to the convoluted unoriginal plot, the bad acting by most of the cast (Emmanuelle Vaugier still cannot act well - mainly due to the fact that she seems to always be smiling underneath her facial expressions, like she's ready to break out laughing any second), and the usual Lifetime plot holes.

I continue to wade through the majority of mediocre to bad Lifetime flicks solely to stumble upon the rare gems that I've seen from them before and hope they're still capable of.

2 out of 10 / Grade D-

What you expect from a TV movie. Sub par acting mildly intriguing but worth the watch.

How can they even seriously allow this bad a movie to be on tv. Horrible acting, stupid plot, bad characters....just the worst

Once again Lifetime has shown a movie under a different name than the original. It was just broadcast under the title "Betrayed by My Husband". I wonder why they do that? Though the new title does sound more like the type of title Lifetime uses than "Washed Away" does. Still, I am curious as to why they change titles on some movies. This isn't the first time that has happened.

The credits here on IMDB are incomplete, too. The daughter, Lexa, is not credited. She doesn't have a major role, but certainly one large enough to warrant a credit. Once again, strange.

As for the movie itself, it's just another formulaic Lifetime movie, though with some semi-interesting editing. Still, not good enough to earn it more than 4 stars.

When we saw this movie premiered originally in 2017 and was made in Canada, we thought, this should be good! Well, we couldn't have been more disappointed. The movie was confusing and all over the map. Lots and lots of plotholes and a terrible script. Even Emmanuelle Vaugier couldn't save this one from being washed away! Horrible!
