Deadly Secrets

They are really stretching the realms of imagination on this one. Jade wants nothing to do with Rick yet she willingly lies and sneaks out to see him numerous times. Nothing whatsoever to explain what the attraction is and how it came about. Then she willingly and inexplicably starts stealing and then claims she wants to run away with Rick. Oh, and the actress who plays Jade is so stiff and rigid in her expressions and delivery. C'mon LMN you have had years to improve the quality of your films, yet they seem to get worse. The writers on this one are hacks and whoever did the casting needs to go back to casting school.

Nice, different plot with a twist that surprised me. Overall, it was entertaining. My complaint was there were too many small stupid little things that dragged it down. My rating began as a 6. As the plot progressed towards the end, I was thinking 5. Then 4 or 3. Fortunately the twist occurred and so I raised it back to a more than generous 6. Great review, huh. Maybe I have writers block too.

Good girl Jade (Lizzie Boys) gets full scholarship for college. Everything is looking up despite the loss of her father a couple of years ago. At the new school, she joins the volleyball team and makes a couple of new friends. Her author mother Frida Westwood (Kate Drummond) is struggling with writer's block. A new friend gets murdered. Then Jade discovers that her mother had somehow lost all their money. She is pursued by bad boy Rick who gets her involved in robberies.

This is all about Rick and that he never wins me over. I can't believe that he would win Jade over. She would never go to dinner with him. The actor is fine for what he's doing. It's just that the role shouldn't be him. Rick should be a hunky charmer. I need to buy that she would fall for him. At no time is she falling for him. Maybe he could set her up for blackmail right from the start. I don't buy this movie and it gets worst. There is an unnecessarily unreal surprise twist at the end. The movie is already bad and a twist is only making it worst.
