Review by AdrienneGrayceMusic

Not sure why the hate. Yikes. Stumbled upon this on Tubi since they have the old classic lifetime movies. Lifetime movies in the 80s and 90s were the best ones, and this one was no exception. Exceptional acting from Joanna kerns and the child who played her son Jason. People can say that this is another "typical lifetime movie" but to me, thats ok. This story should be told over and over until people realize what women go through. Tim Matheson always plays the bad guy, being type-cast in almost everything, so he did well here. It was a great story of abuse running in families from generation to generation and the struggle women face trying to leave, since most people think its so easy. A lot of new laws have been enacted in the last couple decades but battered women and children were through the roof during the time of this movie. If you like typical lifetime movies, you'll like this one as well.
