I have seen many many Lifetime movies over the years. Some have been downright crap, some have been ok, many have been good with very predictable endings, few have been excellent and fewer still have been outstanding. This movie is one of those very very rare outstanding movies with a very un-Lifetime movie ending. The storyline was excellent, the never-ending-tension was first class and the acting very good (massive big-ups for the outstanding Merritt Patterson as Taran Hatherway). I can count on one hand the number of outstanding Lifetime movies I have ever seen. This movie without a shadow of a doubt is one of them.
Ultra highly recommended!!!!

so the last Lifetime movie I saw had Rob Lowe in it as ex cop Mister Peterson. I liked it, I had a bottle of wine while watching it. This one happened to have been on the same day as the super Bowl. Amy Adams was starring on HBO simultaneously alongside Matthew Goode..BY! Bye Bye... this is the best, during the film we get a look at a relationship between co owners of a bar, a Blooper that involves Porn and schooling kids with Futuristic Tablets, IPADS, or whatever. Then, as we see that this guy finally notices his student is flirty, and rich.... he gets to use her car, A BMW...he gets a rolex....he's being uncool as a teacher with no exuse that logically satisfies his BUDDIES inquisitions on this NEW relationship. BUT THEN....that's not all that this movie is...There's suicide, there's murder...as a matter of fact this SONG IM LISTENING to, BLOOD CULTURES by Indian Summer might as well be sung by Chris Klein..because hed probably satisfy whatever is going on in the minds of any woman watching this PROGRAM...again until...the cops come...and the woman..I mean student is put in a predicament to have her life taken so that there is this all involved simultaneous dead at the same time innuendo going on...and you will see...did the cops do the right thing? did the best thing happen for anyone involved in this preview of tragedy? like andy rooney who likes water...I think so..its so heart wrenching...
Crazy people might think this ridiculous plot of revenge is great but it sucks from the near beginning, after the girl goes nutty when he's trying to fix the sink, and he gets no red flag message!! So he happily drives around in her alleged dad's BMW, and accepts a Rolex watch from her, and gets everything the idiot deserves.
Being derivative the film makes no attempt to create genuinely believable acts of life sabotage. Instead it relies on a pathetic, weak, incredibly stupid teacher at the receiving end of implausible mishief.

Still can't get that scene from American Pie out of my head. But anyway. Damaged all in all isn't a bad film. Yes it starts of very much like The Confessions Of A Teacher and you're waiting for the hot girl with the smile to remove her clothing for no good reason but stick with it.
Its very cliche and so obvious every bad thing that happens in the film is the hot girl with the crush but midway through the acting improves ten fold and there's actually a backstory as to what's really going on and why. Is this just really a school girl crush? Or is it something more?
The film has a satisfying ending and that's all it needed really to take the rate above 5.0 out of 10.
