Ultimate Deception

It was a terrific movie! I like to watch it again and again. The actors were awesome. The movie kept me on the edge of my seat. I would recommend this movie to anyone. I wish Lifetime would put this movie on DVD. I would most definitely purchase a copy. This movie just proves that you should be very careful about who you get hooked up with. You may think you know someone, but you never know. My daughter watched the movie with me. She thought it was great. All I know is, I will watch this movie every time Lifetime airs it. It's the kind of movie that keeps you glued to the t.v.I wish Lifetime would redo the movie, but use the same actors, and bring it to the big screen.

Richard Grieco gives a convincing performance as quite a sick character in this television movie.

With quite a record, Grieco marries an unsuspecting girl and when she wants a baby so badly, he concocts quite a plot to steal one, and get plenty of loot for himself in the process. This leads to an unbelievable tragedy with a family friend's wife losing her life as Grieco commits the ultimate crime-murder.

Gradually, the wife finds out that her husband isn't the sweet loving guy that he has pretended to be. There is the house that wasn't bought but is being rented. The job that doesn't exist, the lawyer that doesn't exist as well. I could go on and on. Where was the wife to immediately confront him as his lies unravel?

The movie was a little slow at times. I think different music could have been used on occasions when Richard Grieco's character was scheming, or during the end knife scene. The scene with the little boy that 'Terry' (Yasmine Bleeth) rescues from walking near the combine should have perhaps had some music that indicated something was about to happen, just to keep us on the edge of our seats. The fact that this was a true story was a real heart wrencher. Good acting by Yasmine, her waitress friend and the woman who played her mother-in-law. The actors portraying the distraught husband, and his father, were not convincing in any of the emotional (crying) scenes. Overall, the movie kept my attention and I would rate it a 6.5 out of 10.

Saw this movie just yesterday and had a nice time watching it. Good script. The best thing is that it keeps you tensed till the very end.. Watch this one if you want to see a cold-blooded murderer and a perfect husband together in just one person. But that was sick love..Or was it love at all?
