Featured reviews
This movie goes to show that America doesn't care about African Americans or other minority races. It's a great movie that shows exactly how we are marginalized and disregarded everyday. There needs to be more movies like this to shine a bigger light on the injustice our communities across the world have to face. It's sad how she had to do her own leg work and look for her daughter herself risking her own life in the process. It's pathetic that no one really cares about us. We have to care about ourselves and do for ourselves. Minority communities cannot go to the police for help. If it doesn't make ratings it doesn't matter. It's all about views and ratings.
Lifetime really talked this one up, so of course I saved it to watch. I tried to watch it today, and sadly didn't even finish it. This topic is something that NEEDS to have a light shone on it, but this movie did not help the cause. I really can't even put my finger on it, but it didn't hold my attention so I was lost a lot. Some of the scenes where the actors were trying to be pensive about something, I was like, "What are we supposed to be thinking they are thinking?" Again, lost. Finally I just gave up. The missing girl should have maybe had more scenes because as a viewer, I had no attachment to the character. The other characters seemed so shallow and boring, I didn't have any attachment to them either.
Given the subject matter of this film and the overall message, I am shocked that the reviews are so harsh.
Black Girl Missing sheds light on missing persons. Always worthwhile. Additionally, this film is connected to the Black and Missing Foundation - a real organization you can look up to learn more.
There are so many stories shared every single day. Give every piece of work the respect it deserves by simply viewing it and positively reflecting on why it matters.
As someone living in Canada, I cannot fathom the population sizes of some American cities. Give the film some credit for bringing attention to a topic many seldom think about.

Well it's Lifetime, so you KNOW it's gonna be bad. And in that regard, it does not disappoint.
Like most Lifetime movies, the film is cheaply made, the story is rather poorly written and the execution is pretty weak. This one has the added attraction of bias.
I only put this on the see Garcelle. I had no idea who she was other than being on the Housewives show and being the type that is easily triggered.
She's not a good actress. In fact, how she has an acting career is astounding. She's juvie level.
In sum this movie isn't worth your time. The subject matter is all BS. All it does is further division.
I was bored out of my mind.

This has to be one of the better movies in Lifetime's collection. That I have seen so far. To be honest I have seen almost all of them, not including some of the older movies.
I see other reviews saying it was not good. The acting was believable and I wanted to see what would happen next. That alone makes this a good movie. It hit home for me as a mother of hispanic background though. Not sure what true story this was based on, but at the end it really hit you when they showed ALL of the girls of color still missing. Even worse them not getting the recognition they deserve just due to race! Sad but completely true!
I highly recommend if you are a fan on LM's because this one was a good one and at least deserved a 5 or up. It was at least half good. If this happened to me I would have done the exact same thing! As always, watch it and be your own judge!
