Wicked Minds

I was not sure what to think of the recent Harvard graduate Holden Price (Andrew W. Walker) when he came home to visit his multi-millionaire father, Mason Price (Winston Rekert), but just quick as the few bucks I have disappear from my pocket, even quicker does young Holden fall prey to his fathers abusive ways once again. To comfort Holden is his new stepmom, the much younger redheaded Lana (Angie Everhart) who quickly bond and are sympathetic with one another's plight as they struggle with each of their personal relationships with Mason Price.

Mason is a multi millionaire who likes to control both his son and his much younger bride. When Holden comes home one night and finds his father dead cold on the floor he calls the police and quickly becomes the police's prime suspect.

So we are left to try and solve this murderous puzzle with a number of potential suspects. After some twists and turns we discover who is responsible for the murder of the control freak multi millionaire Mason Price.

The second half of the film influenced me to increase my IMDB rating from a 5 to 6 and the ending was worth waiting for. It's a decent suspense/crime film that you may not see the ending coming. I confess, I was pleasantly surprised by the ending and maybe you will be also.

This is not a very good movie and I don't recommend it for those of you who aren't dedicated Andrew Walker fans. If you for any reason still want to see it you'll probably survive, but you'll never be able to make up for the lost hour and a half.

Andrew Walker is very cute and sure there is a twist, but since you now know there is a twist you'll be looking for it and then it's not that surprising. Note this is a standard thriller made for TV.

The music in this movie sets the tone like it should, but also reveals when something isn't right - a good tool when figuring out the plot in advance.

Angie Everheart plays a hot step-mom married to a guy just for his money,, no big deal happens every day,, this guy does treat her like crap no surprise there ,, the dad wants his son to be part of the business,, the son rebels says no,, is introduced to his step mom,, but he first sees her in the shower ,, how awkward is that,, well he falls for her and the two go at it quite often together, as she is barely a few years older than him,, they go to a bar get drunk and so on,, it seems that the dad knows she's cheating but too stupid too see that it is his own son. you would think you would know what happens next .. wrong,, this movie has all kinds of twists and turns, and frankly you won't see all of them coming at once. so without giving anything away i would say that the average viewer will enjoy this as a mystery, thriller type movie,, and don't judge it on morals or anything like that and you should be just fine,, the sex seens are steamy,, especially for lifetime movie network,, but hey a little sex never hurt nobody.

Pretty good thriller turned murder mystery movie. It was pretty predictable in some areas, but what movies aren't? It was done in a way that made me care about the characters and the story. The acting was even better than I could have hoped for in this kind of movie. Andrew W. Walker and Amy Sloan both provided excellent performances. Winston Rekert made his character, the rich, protective father, come alive. Even Angie Everhart pulled off a convincing act.

My only real complaint on the movie is it had about one or two plot twists too many. Otherwise the story seemed to make sense to me, and I enjoyed it.

7 of 10 stars.

The whole setup was fantastic. The twist was awesome.

Then there was the ending....oh the ending.... SMDH.

Ruined an otherwise great movie.
