Jessica l'intrigante

If looks could kill, the whole cast of this movie would be dead! IT STINKS! The one stars for the young lady who is trying to play the police officer... Bless her heart! The blonde... They just don't get any Dumber in this one.🙄

Too many leaps in time...and leaps of faith. Cop meets girl, next scene- cop loves girl, next scene- cop marries girl. He knows nothing about her, but he marries her. Next scene- girl starts screwing young guy. Guess this is like time lapse- lots of things must happen between scenes. You don't end up caring about any of the characters, just end the dang thing.

The only semi-good things about this were the original idea & the lead actresses' competent acting roles. The crazy female lead is pretty good casting, & she gives it all she has, but with bad writing it's not really savable.

Bad everything else: writing, casting, acting, cinematography (how many CUs can there be of bad makeup?), directing, & the editing - wow - the editing is stellar in its AWFULNESS. Blackouts in the middle of scenes, weird cuts that make you think they've gone to commercial when they haven't & a choice of song at the end with slow mo that never ends... It's just so bad it might be fun to watch for a laugh.

If these really are true events, it would be better served with a commitment to the comedic aspect or to the drama. Not both.

Basically, I love all things Bressack. And Lifetime. Combining the two made me squeal with glee! Based on a true story, Jessica is an ambitious, and narcissistic blonde diva who wants to be a megastar. She meets handsome policeman, Paul who caters to her every whim and puts her on the pedestal she created. Fellow cop, Faith (no surprise here...she maintains a huge crush on Paul as they've known each other since childhood) is immediately suspicious of Jessica and begins her own investigation. Similar to "To Die For" (also a true story about Pamela Smart), Jessica seduces a younger man to, well...help her out with her 'abusive' husband. Following the Lifetime rules of provocative drama with a whimsical note, this is a funny little film that proves love is blind. Deaf and dumb, too. Bressack stepped away from the usual grotesque cinema to craft a great plot of intrigue and seduction. And I was especially delighted to see his cameo as the commercial director, instructing Jessica and her new beau on their big screen debut. Looking forward to more of James work!

Once called a filmmaker to watch, James Cullen Bressack has become a name to avoid. This is his worst effort by far. Ridiculous script, hilarious overacting, and "who cares? Just pay me" direction make this a film so bad it's....well just bad. No redeeming anything here. Skip this mess.
