You know exactly where this film is going when you begin to watch it, but you stick with it anyway !! So many cliches , predictable moments i.e. Parents too stupid to notice when something is wrong, best friend twigs and decides to pay a visit with a warning ( does'nt work ) !! , I could go on .............
But what facinated me, was the size of the house !!! How did they even find each other ? It was so big that there are trees growing on each side of the staircase !
And that poor child Max, he wasnt getting much attention from any of them despite the fact that that he was the reason the nurse was there in the first place !! In one scene Max was left to climb the stairs ALONE , bear in mind that the poor child is on crutches !!! And by the way , Mira the mother did'nt look much older than Max, like 12 years old !!!
But I still stayed with it , I suppose there are worse films out there , I just wish it had shown a little more originality and imagination.

The movie, common Lifetime movie, was incredibly typical. And I've seen plenty of Lifetime films with loose pieces, unanswered questions, and far-fetched nonsense. But the ending on this one.. was perhaps the most anti-climactic that I've seen yet. I'm stuck between thinking... really? This woman was pure evil, has a record of murder, and yet is apparently really easy to foil. It was really just that easy? And then what? Any kind of ending is absent. Maybe it's the most realistic of any Lifetime movie... ohh whoops! Good guy won! even though that's every Lifetime movie that isn't based on a true story. But it rubbed me the wrong way and felt like there were a few pages of script and substance missing.
I watched this on Channel 5s' afternoon movie. And what a waste of my time. The acting is just pure awful. The lead actress cannot act. So unrealistic!
Another strong LMN offering. Riveting and thrilling movie. Very creepy nurse. She does a terrific job.
Well, this 2019 movie titled "Evil Intent", although I found it with the cover titled "Psycho Nurse", turned out to be exactly as I expected it to be. That being a predictable thriller that follows the how-to-make-a-thriller blueprint by the numbers.
Sure, "Evil Intent" was watchable and entertaining enough for what it was. This wasn't exactly the brightest moment in the history of thrillers, but "Evil Intent" actually turned out to be enjoyable enough for what it was. Sure, this is hardly a movie that you'll watch more than once, as the contents of the storyline just doesn't have enough in it to support multiple viewings.
The storyline in "Evil Intent" was classic script book material. I mean, you knew exactly how the plot would play out and how the movie would end. And surprise, writer Hannah C. Langley didn't veer from that course one bit.
I will say that the acting in the movie was good, despite of the actors and actresses being somewhat restricted and limited in terms of the script and plot. But they definitely put on good performances, which helped carry the movie and making it stay afloat and prevented it from sinking into a grave marked "less than mediocre".
But that was it, wasn't it? "Evil Intent" was just mediocre. I mean, the movie at the hands of director Michael Feifer just failed to throw the audience off of the track. Everything was just so rigidly scripted and predictable.
My rating of "Evil Intent" is a mediocre five out of ten stars. This was by no means among the worst of thrillers that I have sat through, however nor was it among the best either.
