    Totally not worth it.

    Everything is just so wrong. Plot is a mess, storyline is pathetic, zero intrigue, acting is just so horrible.

    I initially was not going to watch this based off on existing IMDB reviews. For some reason decided to give it a shot and couldn't be so disappointed. You initially get tempted because there's a few characters who you think might be interesting, but then the story doesn't really take you any where. This is probably one of the worse movies I ahve seen in a fee years.

    This is time I am never getting back. Why does Netflix agree to release such horrible content all the time.

    Tyler Perry can definitely do better than this.

    Another Pointless Piece of Crap

    Well what do you know another weak script written in 2 weeks by Mr Tyler Perry. Please sir give it up already. Please hire some real writers. This peace of crap looks like it was written in 2 weeks and shot in a week. Another mediocre attempt. Don't understand why he's just happy settling for crap. This man thinks very little of his fan base. He only gives them mediocre and feels that it is good enough. My question to Mr Perry what's wrong with being great? You don't think your fans deserve better....and you wonder why your work is never rewarded. Maybe come up with.the concept and hire professional writers to execute.

    One of the worst

    I don't know what netflix were thinking with getting the rights to this. Waste of money for them and for Tyler Perry to. This movie has no substance really and for most of it's two hour running time it's boring. Kelly Roland is a singer that's joint the acting clan and she shouldn't have. She plays mea here, a defense attorney that's hired by a guy that was accused of killing his girlfriend. As you can guess they fall for one another and yada yada yada. I think the acting was pretty bad and the script might have been written by someone that can't. Overall the made for TV thrillers are better than this movie it was sad really because it could have had potential and the sex scenes were just awkward to watch.

    Did AI write this?

    I don't even know where to begin with this one. Right off the bat, the dialogue is ridiculous. Like, comically ridiculous. Within the first 15 minutes, I had to double check that this wasn't supposed to be a parody of thrillers. Like, how could someone write this and not intend it to be satirical? There's an evil mother in law that's so over the top, I'm convinced the writers just went to ChatGPT and asked it to write stereotypes. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if this entire script was AI-generated.

    The movie is worsened by unnecessary sex scenes and bad acting. Is it supposed to be an erotic thriller or a murder mystery? Pick one and do it well, don't try to do both and fail. The romantic male lead is such a bad actor, I was laughing at some of his line deliveries. Honestly the best thing about this movie was the mystery element, which was painfully predictable and trite. I gave it a two cause I guess it could be worse?

    TYLER PERRY NEEDS A COWRITER!

    I pressed play for Black History Month, however, there were no characters to root for. The last part of the movie was the worst a messy rush that didn't land. It was pretty decently shot but the script needs assistance...happy to see Kelly Rowland rocking her Fabletics work out wear in the movie (product promotion) The script was clearly written using a checklist, Crime - Act 1, Act 2 -Romance/Erotica (missing the urgency of the murder case), and the worst part Act 3-Thriller (suddenly, the movie remembers it hasn't been a thriller, only giving the viewers horrendous hints at it). As someone who has anxiety, I wasn't nervous about any of the so called thrills.
