Fun movie

I'm a movie Connoisseur. I mean I truly understand, appreciate, recognize, and respect good films (Sophie's Choice, The Color Purple, Forrest Gump, The God Father, etc.). This film posses none of the qualities that make these films great! The acting is pedestrian; I mean, it's not that it's bad acting, it's just, so, average. The plot, theme, and "twists" are very predictable. BUT, for some reason, this is a good, fun movie. Maybe it's so good for its simplicity, for its modesty, or for its innocence.

I came home on a Sunday evening with my girl friend, and as usual, she turned to the lifetime network and began to watch a typical Lifetime I-hate-men movie. I sat down next to her and began to observe (a rarity for me), but for some reason, I was hooked on the movie. I like this movie, and I would highly recommend it to anybody that just wants to sit back and enjoy a simple movie with an obvious protagonist and an obvious antagonist. This movie is intended to entertain you, not to get you to think. It's just a fun movie to watch, and it actually sends out a great message.

Wonderful movie

For a TV movie, "Lying Eyes" had everything you can ask for. Cassidy Rae was wonderful to look at, as was Vincent Irizary. The story of a older attorny and highschool girl who have a affair which leads to the young girl being stalked by the older mans "wife". The ending is wonderful and suprising. Sure I've seen better acting, and better writing, but it was a wonderful plot and a good use of two hours. I'd definately recommend it again. The suspense was wonderful. "Lying Eyes" is one for the books.

Good movie, not perfect, but will keep you interested till the end

The movie does a good job of keeping you interested till the end. The thrill factor is the best aspect of the movie. The story can benefit from more work. It has many holes and you can only completely make sense of it by saying it is a movie after all. For example, the villain seems to have the gift to be able to be every where just at the right time. The characters seemed too rushed on the romance part. There are many clichés too. Still, I find it very easy to watch and entertaining. The actors do a very good job and the filming is good too. Although it is not an Oscar winner, I recommend it. As it is does a good job of keeping you interested and trying to figure out who the villain is. It deserves a chance.

At least Lujack was in it

We've all seen this a hundred times before. Though I find movies like this appealing. And I thought Cassidy Rae did a pretty good job as the 18-year-old cheerleader who finds herself dating a 33-year-old professional man who runs into her with his car. Though the primary appeal for me was seeing Lujack from 'The Guiding Light' all these years later in another role--one where he wasn't the bad boy (or maybe he was). I was addicted to that show during the years of Phillip, Mindy, Beth and Lujack.

But how could this girl possibly think she had a future with this man? One of three things is likely to happen: he's married and keeping his affair secret; he's abusive and has a history with young girls; or a jilted former lover will start stalking his latest girlfriend. Or maybe a combination of these. I won't say which, or whether they came up with a fresh approach in making this movie, but I did enjoy it. One thing I can say: chilling music and a weird camera angle frequently made it look like someone was watching.

Nothing groundbreaking, but not too bad either.

just gotta love those cheesy teen flicks!

This is just one of those teen movies(with actors actually in their 20's of course) that you love to hate. It's super cheesy but for some reason you watch it straight through to the end. It even comes equipped with the classic to-hot-sauna scene. How can you resist the brain-candy? I'm not sure I could think of much more to say about a movie like this. It's the kind of show you would (or should) never rent, nor go see in a theatre without asking for your money back. That would explain why it's a made-for-t.v. movie, I suppose! It's perfect for the veg-out, rainy-day Sunday groaner!
