Party of 5 meets Lifetime

I came to see reviews bc the high rating on Prime is totally misleading. It's fine that it's a made for tv thing, but to make it seem comparable to blockbuster productions 10/10, THAT'S laughable.

Cliche story and production for soap opera daytime fans. If that's your jam, this is right there. Not bad to leave on while doing other things. Not going to blow anyone away with its production value. Low attention span content.

Predictable Revenge..

Predictable, but cast tries.

This film is way too predictable. It starts out with a pretty decent premise, but the viewer figures things out very early on. From then, it's just a question of how the plot will get to the inevitable ending. A psychological thriller/suspense film --which is what this trying to be--needs a lot more development and imagination to work.

The cast does give it a good shot, but needs more to work with. Ethan Embry and Paul Sorvino (In a small role) are particularly good. Lacey Chabert holds her own, too. Of course, she has several scenes requiring her to prance around in a bikini.

Overall, this film falls slightly short of a recommendation.

Good Thriller with a Poor ending

I knew going in this was a Lifetime movie and set my expectations accordingly, then was pleasantly surprised by how intense it became. It starts out with a slow burn then ramps up and doesn't let go until the very end. That's where it lost me, though, that terribly explained ending that didn't tie up all the loose ends. Thinking I may have missed something, I looked for online reviews of this movie and didn't find anything helpful. It jumps from the climax to a wind down scene, a just-deserts scene, and then a final scene. The problem is the climax doesn't resolve and forcing a scene change where they did is a cheat because there was no good way for the heroine to get out of the situation. I know I'm being a little vague, that's because I don't want to give anything away. It's frustrating though because everything up to that point was done so well, but that ending... No thriller should leave you with unanswered questions.

Really Enjoyed

Really Enjoyed this movie. At parts it was predictable - just like any movie - but it was very entertaining and I like the actress that plays Emma. I was confused at points, though. But this is a movie that keeps you watching - more suspenseful and reminds me of movies like obsessed, til death do us part, and such.

Confused by reviews

I usually watch unheard of movies based on reviews here. Anything 4.8 and above is worth a watch in my opinion. I tried to stomach this movie until the end, but couldn't make it. It is extremely boring. The acting is not terrible but it's far from great. If you can hold your attention for more than 30 minutes, it might be worth a watch for you.

More mindless saccharine-sweet garbage for imagination-starved viewers. I'm embarrassed and angry that I watched this drivel. Ridiculous waste of precious time.

Good movie if you're looking to watch a bad movie

It's just bad. People will blame the actors but I'm guessing it's the director. The entire movie is an awkward and unnecessary appeal to the male gaze. I know it might seem like a stretch, but I get the feeling the director is a creep. All the female characters adhere to a strange, soft spoken and sultry prototype the entire film and its detrimental to their performance. It's blatant career suicide for all women involved. Poor Gretchen Weiners deserved better.

It has a very soap opera vibe. The plot is promising but it's poorly executed. The music doesn't fit the scene (think suspenseful music alongside stills of art supplies). If you want to watch a bad movie, which honestly sometimes that's what I'm looking for, this is a great pick. Want something to fall asleep to? This is it. Want something to passively watch as you clean house? This might be a good pick. Something to get drunk with friends and yell at while you take shots? It's an alright choice.

Good for drinking games

This movie annoyed me from beginning to end (how did I make it to the end? Good question. Now THERE'S a mystery).

Every relationship, every character, every conversation, every conflict, every scenario defied believability. It was clear from the get-go they were going to spring some sort of Hitchcockian fake out on us. I suppose that's why I stuck it out. I was curious to see if they could, some how, pull off a Hitchcock-meets-Shyamalan switcheroo in the end.

They could not.

Absolute garbage.

Ten minutes in I'm like, 'ask her one more time if she's taken her pills and I swear to whosoever, I'll punch the screen ... or take a drink.'

I'm no pharmacist but, are antipsychotics supposed to be eaten like PEZ candy? Cause that's how these idiots took them.

The brilliance of Shyamalan's "Sixth Sense" is that, when (after learning Bruce Willis was a dead person) we went back and reviewed all the previous interactions with him, we could see he wasn't really there. The viewers own expectations filled in the blanks. Beautifully executed psychological trick. In this movie, you find yourself coaching from the sidelines, 'If, later, you want me to believe she was only pretending to be a ghost, then don't put her in impossible supernatural situations now. It won't add up.'

Also. The characters were one dimensional and cliche. Misogynistic men and hysterical or devious women. I suppose in that way it was a bit Hitchcockian.

To the two actors who played "Mad Men" minor characters (Greg Harris and Mel, the smarmy soap opera dude who wanted to have a threesom with Don and Megan Draper) ... sorry things haven't gone so well for your careers.

Pay no attention to the poor reviews

I happened to enjoy this movie. My advice to anyone would be, if you want to watch the movie, watch the movie. Make your own judgment as to whether it is good or not. I think some people like to leave negative reviews because they have nothing else in life to do.

Non zero sum game

This was a great new thriller on Tubi, haha! Dont anyone bash this one. Loved the actress she played her role great. Loved her attorney too making sure she don't get screwed over and he don't play around. I'm hoping she has an affair with her new hot psychiatrist cause her husband is having his own and he's gross. Loved the scene at the dinner table and replayed it for kicks, he had to undo his tie, cause he was in shock! Lmao, then he wasn't so Mr. Smooth after that, ha ha. Thats where I'm at I can figure out the rest from there. This is still too short? Now I have to type filler words so I can leave my first review.

Very good movie.

Dont let the negative reviews stop you from giving this film the chance it deserves. It definitely wasn't as predictable as some say and I believe most will enjoy it. Basically, the main characters (Lacy Chabert) sanity comes into question when her husband believes that she is taking it to far with her imaginary friend and may need professional help. The ending was fantastic. You wont be disappointed.
