I loved the whole wait shit did she do it oh nah know way and just had me switching every minute I truly have no idea whether she did it or not and it kept me so intrigued
@wes-connors: Charles Manson didn't directly kill his victims, either (if it is how it is described and Sarah manipulated her boyfriend into killing their friends). Manson manipulated his 'family' members with drugs and sex to do his dirty work.
@edshullivan: Jenna-Dewan-Tatum's last name is her married name. When she married Channing Tatum, she added his last name to hers. Dewan-Tatum is not a mix of her parents' last names. A lot of women do add their husband's last names to theirs when they marry.
**** She Made Them Do It (2/28/13) Grant Harvey ~ Jenna Dewan-Tatum, Steve Bacic, Andrew Airlie, Mackenzie Phillips

'She Made Them Do It' is a bland, uninspiring and entirely predictable movie.
I'm usually open-minded towards lower budget productions, and I can get past some consequences of a tight production resource list and a less experienced cast, as long as the story is compelling and the final cut interesting.
This is no such case, though. Characters are incredibly shallow, editing is off-the-mark, and the whole movie looks just a random collage of lines and scenes I'm sure I've been before, elsewhere. Actors feel like they are not comfortable with cameras at all.

Beautiful Purdue University student Jenna Dewan-Tatum (as Sarah Jo Pender) is outraged when boyfriend Greyston Holt (as Rick) invests her tuition money in a drug deal. The most sober member of a frothy foursome, Ms. Dewan-Tatum orders Mr. Holt to get rid of their roommates – then, she goes for a walk. When Dewan-Tatum returns, the other couple has been shot. Dewan-Tatum is found guilty of double murder and sentenced to 110 years in prison. This is how "She Made Them Do It" begins, but how it ends is unclear. During the running time, we are made to think the opening events did not happen as screened. Although we are informed this is "based on a true story," the truth appears to have escaped...
Dewan-Tatum's character is described as a "female Charles Manson." Yet, she either does or doesn't commit the crime according to the moment you happen to be watching. Sexy and attractive for writer Gary Tieche and director Grant Harvey, Dewan-Tatum wastes no time in dropping her panties for the camera. She also hints at including both genders in bed, engaging the viewer. It's nice to see clean and sober Mackenzie Phillips (as Jamie Long) among her prison girlfriends. Given the use of "America's Most Wanted" and the fact that she was convicted, the way filmmakers seem to glamorize the character may be considered unfortunate – but that TV program and this film are selling crime as entertainment, after all.

The Lord Jesus Christ is the living
God, the Savior The Lord Jesus Christ died to take away our sins, was buried, resurrected from the dead, and ascended into Heaven
Believe it, be saved
Confess Jesus is Lord and believe in him JESUS loves you
May the Grace, Mercy and Blood of JESUS CHRIST be with you
Say this prayer: "Jesus is Lord, and I firmly believe in my heart that God raised him from the third day's death. Forgive me, Jesus, with the shed blood of your cross, and save me in Jesus' name. Amen
Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

Did you know
- GoofsA tank top and flip flops would be a poor choice of clothing for someone who was planning to break out of prison posing as a visitor. Since visitors are not allowed to wear things like tank tops and open-toed shoes, this attire is exactly wrong for the escapee-hopeful because it would actually draw attention instead of letting the person blend in and get lost in the crowd.
