The Black Widow Killer

I'm not sure why this has gotten such low reviews. As far as Lifetime Movies go this is one of the better ones I've seen.

Please be warned that this film will minus some of your time.

Awful acting and daft storyline.

Why do this cheap matinees not use age appropriate actors? Why is someone in their mid twenty's playing a teen.

Daft.

As far as Lifetime movies go, this was actually okay.

40mins in and about to switch it off. I'm just one of those people, if a movie hasn't gripped me or at least made me mildly interested or intrigued by this point it's being switched off. This is boring as hell! It's a shame because I liked the mum in 'Being Erica'. This is rubbish though.

I'm not saying that it would 'set the River Thames on fire', but housebound(ish) as I am thanks to the 'underlying conditions', it helped to pass some time.

One external viewer wrote that part of the problem is that most of the characters, good-guys and bad-guys are very hard to like or empathise with. This is true, apart from the 2 teenagers. I almost felt sorry for the villain until we were shown how they came by a new identity.

Worth a watch on a rainy afternoon, during lock-down or self-isolation/ social distancing.
