b3-8's rating
My wife thought Joy looked interesting so we went. I figured it would be a "chick flick", but was happy to keep her company.
Less than an hour into the movie, she turned to me and said "are you ready to go? I am!" Great news for me, even though neither of us had ever walked out of a movie.
The plot was stupid, and the actors did not seem to be into it. If the whole ridiculous family situation was historically accurate, it sure was not portrayed well in the movie.
I expected a "5" movie; my wife expected an "8". We both rate it as a "1".

...was what we thought. Unfortunately, we checked IMDb after my wife and I paid for this movie on pay-per-view and started watching it.
Well, we found out how you could all be so negative.
I, although not so much my wife, enjoy "bad" movies sometimes - for example, "bad" science fiction movies with laughable plots, laughable monsters/villains/viruses/aliens/etc - I believe they are bad on purpose to make them enjoyably laughable.
But this disaster has nothing to laugh about. The only joy you will realize is either when you turn it off or when it is mercifully over.
Do not waste your time.

The movie is OK - more at the end - but it is an incredible mistake, about 10 minutes from the end, which made me register with IMDb just so I could let others know.
Near the end, there is a body floating upside down in a swimming pool. I won't give more details, so this does not become a spoiler.
When you get to this scene, watch the body. The person moves around, lifts the head up breathing... Amazing this made it through the final editing.
The movie itself is typical for TV movies - OK to watch when you want to kill a couple of hours, but nothing you'll remember for long. The story line is predictable - (is there anyone who would not predict the incident with the cell phone in the hotel room...) My family enjoyed watching it, and laughed for hours about the pool body scene.
