I know, It's not really a new movie or anything like that. I just got around to watching this one now, as I am writing and I am actually pleasantly surprised by this one. I find the visual aspect of it was very good. It doesn't have those made for TV looks. The audio too is good. The plot is interesting and I can't really admit to foreseeing the end before its time. Well at least not at where I am presently.(she just go run off the road by someone who was listening to her cell phone call) There are a few point that one could possible be irritated with. But in all nothing really major. As mentioned by others, the relationship that forms between the two main actors doesn't really seem plausible but yet how many movies have we all seen where two actors going through a rough patch have an intimate relationship. Probably every one, so I don't think this really destroys the movie.I doesn't give it a boost either I should say. If your looking for a movie that is not action packed and that the plot holds up and you don't want to waste time then I really think you should give this one a shot.

"Smoke Screen" is a Lifetime TV movie from 2010 starring Jaime Pressly, Currie Graham, Garwin Sanford, and Larissa Laskin. Writing that it's a Lifetime movie and then adding it was made in Canada is redundant, but there you go.

Pressly is Britt Shelley, a beautiful blond news reporter. One morning she wakes up and there's a dead man in bed with her. Naturally the police suspect her immediately, and poor Britt can't remember a thing past a certain point. She's positive she was slipped a date rape drug. She explains to the police detectives that a man who was involved in a fire she covered five years ago, Jay (Martin Cummins) wanted to speak with her. They meet at a restaurant; he has something important to tell her. After that, she's clueless until she wakes up next to his dead body.

A city firefighter whose career was ruined by Britt due to the incident five years earlier, Raley (Currie Graham) kidnaps her and takes her to his cabin. Raley points out that he was set up the exact same way as Britt: he woke up with a woman in his bed, and the last thing he remembered was her offering him a drink at a party. The two investigate and realize the two cases are connected, and that someone is out to get Britt.

This film didn't hold together all that well, and I figured out whodunit pretty soon after it started. It's a little slow, the romance seemed implausible, and Currie Graham was a distraction because he reminded me so much of Kevin Spacey. I actually thought there were too many characters and different parts of the original crime didn't come together well; if it had been directed better, we could have seen the plots gel more succinctly, but as it was, it was all over the place.

Jaime Pressly did an okay job; she looks like your ideal soap opera actress, and the rest of the acting was passable. Just an okay film. Writing okay and Lifetime movie is redundant. But there you go.
