    Which twin is which?

    This was a pretty good movie with Emily Piggford playing Emily/Charlotte and good use of split screen editing. Emily escapes a physically abusive man (Jared) and goes back to her home town in Mill County. The problem is many people there think she's Charlotte and they hate her for what she's done. She finally meets up with Charlotte who makes Emily's life a living hell. Would watch this one again filmed in Ontario, Canada.

    It's watchable

    Not sure what could have made it better or unique. Lifetime has a "twin movie" template. This isn't one of the better ones and the movie kind of just happens. There are better twin thrillers on the network, and one that's maybe a bit similar to this one is Killer Twin, even right down to how the evil twin is revealed in the climax.

    One thing that's frustrating about this movie is that we are constantly questioning which twin is which until the "Evil Twin" (name drop) does something villainous. No matter the scene. I know it's necessary, but after a couple of times, I was over it. I don't know if it's cheaper to pay one person over an actual twin set ( I would assume one actress gets paid more for basically double work), but the back and forth got old for me. It's Lifetime, sure, but earlier this year, HM used Jeremy Jordan as twins and he actually made them two different characters. Sarah Michelle Gellar played twins on Ringer. And of course, my all time favorite at this point, Tatiana Maslany played so many clones with each of them having a unique personality, that I know it can be done! For actual twins there was the Ruby series (on Lifetime), Cynthia/Brittany Daniel, and of course Mary-Kate/Ashley or Tia/Tamera. These twins you can see the difference once you look long enough and their personalities differ enough to be noticeable. Lifetime also had My Sister's Secret where the one actress seemed like two different people. Lifetime has also had a couple of twin brother flicks and same thing. I don't think simply being the non-murderous twin is a personality.

    IDK, I don't necessarily fault the actress, but sometimes I'd rather they just fool the characters not the audience. It gets tiresome when it drags on.

    I think I'm your sister.

    Emily opens the door and Charlotte is looking in the mirror. Emily, "I think I'm your sister". DUH. Charlotte, "I don't have a sister". Again, DUH. Where did that even come from? I've been around 5 sets of identical twins and you can ALWAYS see the physical differences. The whole premise is comical. I guess when you get your hair cut like a little boy your face also changes dramatically. I watched a half hour of this one and shut it off. Just dumb. The whole David and Emily thing was dry, robotic and just plain silly. Just an acting and writing disaster rolled into one. Save yourself the time and ignore this mess.

    You Hope it Will Get Better-It Doesn't & Worst Actors EVER

    As soon as it showed Lifetime Movies...I thought OH NO...With their REP. of using what always appear to look like 'trainee actors and directors' this one followed suit. The editing was appalling too and there was so was so many stupid scenarios, I FForwarded to the end. Such a shame because the storyline was good What is the matter with Lifetime are they on such a tight budget they can't afford to hire good people?

    Don't bother with this one

    Emily escapes from a bad relationship, returns to her home town.

    Standard fare, expect there's a handsome firefighter/single dad somewhere?

    Usefully, a friend lends her a house in exchange for looking after friend's antique shop. We see her proving her fitness for this job by attacking a table with harsh sandpaper.

    First customer in the friend's shop buys a desk for his nine-year-old daughter - without asking the price - and invites Emily to dinner.

    Customer's small daughter is, she and her daddy tell us, an expert on Jane Austen and has read all her books. Plot really going off-piste here.

    Apparently Emily has a long lost twin sister who may be a wrong 'un.

    The good townsfolk don't actually hold up garlic or make signs warding off the evil eye but they come close.

    Sinister sister looks sort-of-like Emily. OK I was half asleep but camera angles, wigs, dark glasses meant I was genuinely unsure the same actress played both roles. (Closing credits say she did) Anyway, BadSis spends all her time taking calls from equally sinister chap making threats. A guy called Trevor - or possibly Blake - is dead. Or not. And who is he anyway? I'd lost track by this point.

    No idea why BadSis is committing her crimes. She just stomps about trying to murder people. Sweetie, learn to knit, bake cupcakes, you'd have more fun and so would we.

    I left the film running but only because the TV remote was out of reach and I couldn't be @rsed to get off the sofa.

    Seriously, don't bother. You'll be better amused rearranging your sock drawer or weighing the cat.
