    good for lifetime

    No, this is not great movie. Nor is it the most morally uplifting film ever made. But it is just right if you are looking for a decent TV movie. It has beautiful women(particularly the lead), romance, intrigue, suspense, and some really good plot twists. What more could you ask for from a Lifetime movie?

    I'm not sure why other people are giving this flick such low ratings. And average lifetime movie seems to get around a 5 and a good one 6. Based on those numbers, I myself am giving this movie a 6. It's a lot better than some of the stuff on the Lifetime networks. Anyway, it's worth at least one watch.

    Imaginative

    Pretty good made for tv suspense thriller. Some ridiculous coincidences. After the main character escapes out of New York the protagonist just suddenly discovers which roadside motel she happens to be secluding herself.

    Terminate her

    No pun intended - yes Kristinna Lokken stars in this. And I assume she would love to get better scripts. She is better than this - or mabe she isn't. I do feel she could do more than be part of stuff like this. Even when she isn't really - well there is no real challenge when it comes to story or acting - yet you can see her giving it her all.

    Well apart from baring it all. I actually am not sure, if she has done a movie where she is completely nude. In Terminator she was in her Eva costume, but it was shot in a way that it was able to get away with a PG13. And the same rating is true for this one I assume.

    There are not many things that will surprise you here - story is by the numbers. Dialog is weak most of the time ... well the people are good looking if that helps .. and maybe you are into the thriller of the week tv movie thing ...

    not too bad

    Neither of the female leads were particularly attractive but they did passable acting ... you could tell the sleezebags from the onset and they were hilariously stupid, including the fbi agent.. the local cops had no clue as per usual and the tough guys ended up being out toughed by the main female lead ... i liked her attitude and moxie throughout ... i may even look up some of her other films and partake, thanks kristanna loken

    quite intriguing

    Fairly intriguing thriller stars the beautiful Kristiana Loken who should be on screen more. She hears her best friend being assaulted on the phone. Later she is presumed dead. Going through the deceased stuff she realises she was an escort. She is helped by a lawyer colleague of the dead girl.

    There is some big conspiracy and trial in the background.

    Worth a watch.
