Coby Ryan McLaughlin, Scarlett Fernandez, and AnaSofia Bianchi in À la merci de mon patron (2020)

Review by Stoshie

À la merci de mon patron

3/10

Formulaic

I'm really tired of these films where the bad guy has a camera set up in Our Hero's residence. In this case, when the brick gets thrown through the window where the lead woman lives, the camera is positioned low in the room, close to the actors, and it moves, changing position while the bad guy watches on his computer. Uh huh, right; that's believable. In other scenes, the camera is positioned up higher in the room, looking down on the people. Sure, that makes sense, too.

And of course the hero of our story gets drugged at one point. What Lifetime movie would be complete without that?

Another odd thing is the cast listing here on IMDB. One of the young daughters gets top billing, even though she has just a supporting role, and has no more scenes or lines than the other daughter, whose credit is lower in the list. Worse, the lead actress's credit is way far down the list, below just about every other cast member. Why are the actors listed in such a strange way?

That mystery is actually more interesting than the movie itself.
