Adolescente en danger

This movie is a really good movie. It always kept me watching, and you never get bored. Jennie Garth does a great job in it. Her portrayal of Laurie Kellogg is remarkable. I'd say it was one of her best movies. Definitely watch it!

I feel so bad for Laurie Kellogg,and in many ways I can relate with her. I too have been in a past abusive marriage.Most people have NO idea what goes thru your mind when you're in a relationship like that.I was one of the lucky ones that managed to get away,but was haunted by memories for years,and at times still surface.I read a comment made by a judge that said "Theres a lot of law,and no justice".How very true.The actual victim is victimized again by the justice system!I'm sorry,What justice system?I feel that the movie may have had a bit of Hollywood drama added,but if you watch it for the context of the story,someone watching it may be able to save themselves.Abuse can be in so many different forms,and it's around each and everyone of us on a daily basis.Open your eyes,you may be able to help someone!

This is a wonderful movie. It shows us just how venerable we as women are in our society. Our society makes us (women) dependent on our parents and men to take care of us. People who do not believe this do not live in the real world. Women do not have the same opportunities as men in the work place, etc.

I think this movie shows just how dependent Laurie was on Bruce and just how much she loved him and wanted and needed his approval. Jennie Garth did a wonderful job portraying Laurie, as did the rest of the cast portraying the other victims involved in this "crazy abuse trap". I think every young woman in their early teens should see this movie and learn early that abuse is not normal in relationships.

I grew up in Linglestown, and knew Denver McDowell. The producers of this movie took great liberties with the filming. The houses Denver and the Kelloggs lived in look NOTHING like the ones in the movie. Also, the town is LinglesTOWN, not LinglesTON. I do not know enough about the situation to know who was telling the truth, but I do know it would've been nice if someone would have actually COME to Pennsylvania and researched the area. Add to that the fact that the actors look absolutely NOTHING like the real people, and it makes it just more over the top.

The writing of the movie is simply just another Lifetime movie of the week.

I hate movies like this! It's not difficult to play with someone's emotions... All you have to do is throw in a few characters that are either abusing someone, or being abused, and (hopefully) human nature causes a feeling of wanting to do something about it. But being able to touch an emotion in a viewer's mind does not make a good movie, and this movie is a perfect example of that.

To be truthful, I only watched the first half, and then turned off the TV because it was so bad. And although I don't know the ending, I can't imagine how it could be anything other than the obvious. And even if there was some incredible twist at the end that made the ending the best movie ending ever made, I would still give it a low rating, just because of the first half alone.

I give it a few points for not being technically ridiculous -- the actors and photography were ok (although nothing remarkable) -- but the story was so thin, and seemed to be completely related to twisting our emotions around in knots just to cause a reaction in us, that I give it overall very low marks. Touching our emotions is great, but give us a story too!
