Une dangereuse élève

Teresa Smith is one of the inmates attending Nicholas Howarth's writing class. Nick draws out a story from her which turns out to be the murder she committed. He uses that story and writes a best selling book. Five years later, he's happily married to Lana. She's newly pregnant but reluctant to tell him the news. Then Teresa comes back into his life wanting recognition and half of the money for her story.

Nick is such a pathetic character that he makes it hard to sit through. Teresa is a good psycho character but there are so many issues. At least, Nick eventually goes to the sheriff about the ex con stalking him. It's almost salvaged until Teresa hits herself with the ketchup bottle. It is one of the silliest staged event. The movie cannot recover and then the story nosedives in one of the most ridiculous endings. Talk about writer's block. I've never seen it portrayed in that way although originality is no saving grace in this case. This is really bad.

This Lifetime psycho thriller is a bit different from the usual romantic attachment themes. The psycho wants credit and royalties from a book her teacher wrote that she gave the idea for. I am a fan of Josie Loren from that gymnastics show. She acts quite well as the psycho- like a femme fatale version of Eva Longoria. Worth a watch.

This movie was terrific, suspenseful, well acted and had serious twists. But most of all this movie was INSPIRING! As a writer, we all face the occasional "block", but on occasion, we know in our hearts what we want to say, sometimes it is the belief that we can't do it and so we stagnate and procrastinate, it is so hard to START! This movie held special meaning for me, as I am in this exact position. But the ending was super fantastic and goes to show that even as social perceptions of jailbirds, felons, ex-cons, and prisoners, there is something great in all of us just dying to get out! I was captivated by this movie! I am compelled now to start my own story! Well done and thank you for such an inspiration! I am grateful! LadyAnn68

This suspense film looked good in the trailer so my husband and I watched it. For about 90% of the film, I would have rated it a 6. It is a typical female stalker type thriller and the stalker actress (the 'student') is pretty damn scary.

However, the ending of this film bumps this down to a dismal 2. I literally screamed at the TV. It's like the network or director decided to go for an upbeat ending at the last second, and changed the last two pages of the screenplay. Nothing that comes before makes the ending credible in any way. Horrible. Truly horrible. It would be like Fatal Attraction ending with the couple engaged in a happy polygamous relationship with the Glenn Close character after she'd killed their bunny and everything else.

No. Just no.

Josie Loren is the cutest person I've seen. It's great watching and looking at her!! That's about all the good I saw in this mess. This is one of the dumbest movies that I've ever seen!! The law enforcement is the usual LMN dumb and couldn't find his rear with both hands. The whole thing goes from absurd to Twilight Zone absurd. The ending is really something from another planet and this isn't science fiction. I thought it would be good but was shown a different story that I thought especially when the law enforcement refused to do anything. I thought filing a complaint for harassment was sufficient in our current country of residence. Watch it if you want to see Josie Loren. She is pretty.
