Meh

It's low budget for sure. I only watched it because I watch anything Traci Lords is in. She's by far the best actress in the movie. Was fun seeing Judy Landers in a cameo again. She's aged well. The movie is a gag to watch if you accept that you're watching low budget, bad acting and that you're watching for the thrill of spying a few other has-beens who will bring a smile to your face and take you down memory lane. The story line was meh... But not too unbelievable... Watch it for the gag and take it for what it is.

Terrible Acting

This movie is terrible. The script isn't bad and the story may have survived had it not been for the lead detective - his acting is horrible. Don't waste your time unless you want to watch 90 minutes of bad acting.

A terrible waste of time

This was a terrible movie. Poorly directed, poorly written, poorly acted. Three for three. It's not worth anyone's time.

As for all those 10s and a 9, click on the screen names of those "reviewers." This is the only movie they ever reviewed. Can someone say "shill"?

A zero seems generous.

Stupid stupid stupid!

When you see it: in the movie there is a scene where the woman says the movie she went to was the most awful movie ever and the writers should be banned from ever writing again. That applies to this movie!

Good acting problematic script

Lots of twists, some believable, most not. Script leaves a lot of holes and shows a lack of knowledge of police procedurals.

Loved this movie

This movie kept me engaged. I was thinking that I knew the killer but I was stunned! Great overall film good one to rent and kickback with friends.... always love a little Hitchcock/ Agatha Christy type movie... worth watching hands down.

Now that was a treat!

I'm a sucker for these types of movies. I saw it on Amazon prime as a suggestion so a read the set up and took a chance. I was glad I did. Reminded me a lot of Hitchcock's Rope where most of the film takes place in one room. You can tell it didn't have a big budget but the cast was so good it didn't matter. I only knew Chase Masterson from DS9 and she was lovely. In Manipulated I was blown away at how good she was! Don't get me wrong they were all fantastic. Kelly Perine was an excellent choice and can clearly see why he got the lead. I don't want to go into any spoilers but all I'll say is "I didn't see that coming!" Wanna escape for 90 mins and see a great who done it? See this film. Smart writing along with excellent performances is the perfect entertaining combination.

GREAT ENTERTAINMENT!!!!!!!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Every time you thought you had it figured out another twist came in the story. This is a movie you will be thinking about days later. Fast paced and intriguing. Excellent job by the actors. I hope there's a sequel!!

Really Enjoyed!

Loved seeing all these actors together! Excellent acting, mood & a classic storyline of a who-done-it. When something is something well-done, something well-done should be done about it - hence, my 10* rating! Enjoy!
