As a TV movie is may not be bad. Specially if you cannot put 100% attention to it. The overall story is appealing, but it feels so unreal in most parts. Some performances are really bad, like those from the cops. They may also be the result of a bad direction. The story has potential but it looks to exaggerate a lot for theatrical purposes, making this movie completely forgettable.

(NOTE-This review contains no spoilers. I would have considered including a spoiler to be an act of mercy. However, the movie was so overly chopped up to make room for more commercials, that it wasn't even clear what happened at the very end. The only way I was able to find out was by looking on the Web for real spoilers).

This movie is completely dumb--overacted, all the subtlety of a sledgehammer blow to the head, with a plot that takes kernels of a potentially realistic situation and blows it up all out of proportion, miles past believability. But I don't watch a Lifetime movie expecting to find an art film. And I don't even need to read any spoilers to know what happens-an innocent (woman or couple-in this case, couple) trusts an innocent-appearing person (in this case, woman), who turns out to be evil, incredibly brilliant and conniving, and seemingly unstoppable, who victimizes the innocents and makes them fear for their lives (and/or the lives of their children). Through sheer grit and their own amateur detective work, the innocents think they have finally won, but in a horrible plot twist, it appears that they are in imminent danger, as the evil person is revealed to be completely psychotic and about to do something unimaginable to them, which she usually describes in detail (since in Lifetime movies, exposition is always a chief symptom of psychosis). But at the last minute, goodness prevails, and the evil, psychotic villain either dies, is jailed, or ends up in a mental institution. If the latter, she is seen smiling maniacally and perhaps talking to herself, her pillow, or a cut-out representing the innocent ex-victims against whom she has now pledged eventual revenge.

You HAVE seen this movie before-the characters and some plot details may be slightly different, but I promise you that you have seen it.

So, you may ask, why did I bother watching this movie? I can't help myself. And that's even dumber than the movie....

I don't get the really bad reviews. Yes, this is a LMN movie so you know you're not getting a high quality film. But this one is by far one of the better LMN movies out there. Lindsay Elston is amazing. I hope her career moves out of the realm of TV movies.

Lately also IMDb is more and more infected by abusive reviews. They are just written to upgrade the rating and hide the awfulness of movies. They will give you false hope that you are gonna enjoy the movie. Evil Nanny is one of those bad and falsely upgraded flicks. Every aspect of making a movie is far beyond any quality. Here the whole main cast has a level of kindergarten. It's unlikely each of them will ever get the status of real actor/actress. The story is of the same low level, no thrill at all and above all: really UNbelievable and most boring! So i'm very sorry to spoil viewers' expectations but please be honest to yourself and don't let you torture your feelings. Avoid this Evil Movie. Go watch any other. And learn this lesson here: whenever you are in the need of a nanny, first check 100% of her/his background and all references. Therefore 1/10 instead of zero points for Evil Nanny. One of the baddest movies ever made...
