It's a story that's been done a million times, but it moved along really well and was visually beautiful. What stood out most to me was the male lead who definitely carried the film and had a great character arc (not to mention the fact that he is gorgeous). I loved the chemistry between him and his wife, which made it that much more painful to watch it crumble to pieces as the movie went along. I also thought the chemistry was strong between Nick and his boss Lisa. It's nothing groundbreaking and you can probably figure out what's going to happen within the first 15min of the movie, but I definitely enjoyed it.

I can't believe anyone gave this more than 1 star. The acting, the main actor in particular was awful! So monotone & expressionless. Buddy, acting is not for you! I don't need for a movie to be brilliant, just entertaining with some decent acting....if you're after the same thing, give this a miss. The acting is so bad it's more infuriating than entertaining to watch. When you couldn't care less if the main characters get killed off you know you're watching a cr@ppy movie. Luckily I had this on in the background while I was working so I didn't waste all of my undivided attention on this drivel.

The one thing I will say about Lifetime stories is that they do provide some really nice looking suburban homes and on occasion some really nice looking actors. But outside of that, Lifetime produces the most utterly ridiculous story telling, horrible acting and much to be desired in viewing content. No one is truly ever believable in these stories, the actors are super plastic and insultingly laughable. This film was about company executive woman, who wanted a child but wanted it from her coworker whose a married man. Why? Because she's a fkn psycho bi@tch...and that's the whole story premise. Like I said......laughable.

This movie went downhill when she started her revenge. It happens every time in these movies so watching yet another vengeful woman accuse her mark of assaulting her got boring and annoying really quickly. It's so cliche and very Lifetime. Also, I hate in these movies how the accused just go along with it. Nick had absolutely no reason to open his shirt at the police station nor allow pictures to be taken. This movie got terrible really quickly. And true to Lifetime, of course Lisa is believed and Nick doesn't have a chance with this female detective who is barely interested in his side. This is by bar the worst part of the movie. Now the "detective" is accusing him of a murder/disappearance and she is pretty much displaying everything people hate about law enforcement. Nick should have gotten up and left. This whole thing and then Lisa's behavior after it (drugging and falsely imprisoning Nick) just shows how many in this situation think they can get away with this (and sadly often do). There's a movie with Jon Cor and Adrienne Frantz that had the plotline I hoped this movie had. The part of the story also ended up being pointless because it went exactly nowhere. Don't even think he told his wife, he was at the police station.

Some good: Really liked the relationship between Nick and his wife. The two had chemistry and made a believable relationship, as did their little girl. I think it would have been a twist to have him actually confess to his wife, bc that is actually his personality. Not that it mattered in the end, but I liked how he had zero interest in Lisa, like at all. Until of course she manipulated her way into his head (he was still wrong, but she set things up). I also liked his friendship with Cassie and how she played into things in the end.

This movie is a lot like Your Boyfriend is Mine, except in that one, the cliche assault accusation didn't materialize although nearly everything else is the same conceptually. Another thing about this movie is what did Lisa expect? That she would actually get her hands on the little girl?

This movie annoyed me so much. I started FF just to finally get to the climax. There was not enough dialogue/scene time given to Lisa's motivation to justify her behavior. The movie could have at least given her a tragic miscarriage, but having her be this way because the man she was having an affair with didn't want more kids (with someone not his wife)? Not a good reason.
