    Sexy care-giver who gives sex therapy is a delusional thought!

    After many similar Lifetime movies about doctors or nurses going rogue, I decided to give this movie a try. Before viewing I did notice already 2 scorching poor reviews about "worst acting" and a cliché plot. Also Lifetime Network adds the movie to its "Wicked Revenge" series... so is the movie shocking a bit like they say? Well the movie falls exactly cliche category where nurses / doctors go delusional and nuts. I do appreciate sexy frill bits scenes in the movie but the revenge part isnot there where you may expect it and the end is a bit contrived but overally the movie is not worse off than "Stalked by my Doctor" films with Eric Roberts. As far as shocking bit, you'll definitely come across a shock so typical for gruesome horror flicks but overal impression i got is a sexy acresss that I would not mind giving care to me. The movie gives messy feel to some of the scenes which may look like bad acting - but I think it's more about choreography and camera work rather than the actors

    Do your homework, Netflix!

    This movie was beyond ridiculous. You say it's about a physical therapist that becomes obsessed with their patient. Said "physical therapist" is then seen ONLY seeing this one patient, and their job entails doing housework and non-skilled care for them. I would think it's fairly common knowledge that a physical therapist is highly educated. They're required to have a doctoral degree and then must also pass boards. They would never sit in someone's house all day with a single patient doing laundry and housekeeping. Even a physical therapy assistant, which requires a bachelors degree, would not do that. Everything about this movie is completely implausible, and clearly the producer that made this shouid find another line of work.

    The worst

    This LMN movie has to be the stupidest one. It is just so bad. The plot and actors having to say these lines is embarrassing. How can you write 150 characters about a really horrible movie.

    Lifetime at its best - or worst

    Insane women are the bedrock of Lifetime, so Dangerous Medicine shouldn't be too surprising.

    Here, a caregiver named Daphne takes her place among the nannies etc. That populate the network. This one becomes a caregiver to crippled men, falls in love with them, and then wrecks any chance they have of walking again so they will keep needing her.

    Her current patient, Tony, was a high school running champion, so gifted, in fact, that the time given in this movie is faster than the world's record-breaker. Really.

    Absolutely absurd in every way possible, including Daphne going after the doctor who can surgically restore Tony's legs. Then there's the hatchet scene.

    She also wears clothes with bare midriffs.

    And she's bad at relaying messages from doctors.

    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      At the start of the film, Tony appears to be running a 100m sprint but complains that his time of 7.3 seconds isn't great. That would make him over 2 seconds faster than anyone in the world including Usain Bolt who, at the time of release, holds the world record for the 100m sprint at 9.58 seconds.
    • Goofs
      Several words misspelled in both the article about Tony's injury in the car accident - ('investing' instead of 'investigating' and 'lead' instead of 'led'), and the online info "How to Amputate an Arm" on Daphne's laptop - ('limg' instead of 'limb').
