This movie is fairly decent even though it left me with many unanswered questions. Amelia, a high school student, and her mother, a single parent, live in this big beautiful house and Amelia drives a Mercedes. There's no mention of whether Amelia's father is dead or alive. Her mother works in a nursing home. Do they have additional income. Amelia is heavy into field and track and plans to compete in the 400 meter. For a competitive athlete you'd think she'd know to wear a supportive sports bra to keep them from bouncing all over. I use to be a runner and that would be annoying to me. Amelia's mother is a piece of work. She's stuck in Amelia's past and can't see her for the wonderful woman she's growing into. Amelia is strong to be capable of continuing to clean up her life without her mother's trust and support. I didn't understand why neither the school principal nor the police could question the players on the football team to find out if Scott was selling them steroids. Did the school have such little trust in their students. Scott appeared to be a good student, and should have been given a chance. Were they so quick to judge him because he played in a band. What bigots. I would like to have seen the principal apologize to Scott for being so quick not to believe him. What was up with the nursing home where Amelia's mother worked. There appeared to be just two caregivers and they were always caring for Miss Wheeler. I saw other patients. Was Miss Wheeler the only patient requiring specialized care. The title was not at all descriptive of what this movie was about. The acting was mediocre, with the Jake character being the worse. He was totally unbelievable.

One of our favorite actresses, Vivica A. Fox, plays the role of Gwen, the head of a nursing home. Gwen is the voice of wisdom to the troubled mom Tracy Cross, who has become nearly estranged from her daughter Amelia. The major undercurrent of the film is the healing process that takes place between mother and daughter. In a tragic automobile accident, Tracy's daughter Amelia was in the passenger seat when her bestie Joy Hessler was driving under the influence. The car toppled into Sawyer Ravine, killing Joy and leaving Amelia seriously injured. While Amelia has fully recovered and has become a budding track star, her mother has never forgiven her for the period when she was drunken and disorderly. Now, a young man named Jake Jerrico has become obsessed with Amelia. Much of the film's action is consumed with the dastardly deeds of Jake's "crush" on Amelia. But the antics of Jake are supplanted by the falling out that has occurred between Amelia and her mother. It is tempting to fault the filmmakers for lack of credibility in the unusually cruel nature of Tracy's conduct towards her daughter. But there is payoff that comes with the most interesting character in the film in the figure of Mrs. Hessler, who never forgave Amelia for the death of her daughter Joy. Perhaps unfairly, Mrs. Hessler once said to Amelia, "You let her kill herself!!!" But the bereaved mom has now had a change of heart after her husband was killed by Jake, whom he hired to try to find evidence that Amelia had fallen off the wagon. Another strength of the film was the way in which the support group was handled in the grief counseling session led by Dr. Griffin. But the most moving part of the film was the confessional of Mrs. Hester to Tracy, which gave Tracy a new outlook on her daughter. All roads lead to Sawyer Ravine, where a very brief action scene leads to the exit of Jake Jerico from the screenplay. The denouement is exclusively devoted to the universal theme of the bonding of a mother and her daughter.

If you've seen any of the Lifetime "Wrong" movies, you know you can't expect much- they all follow a pretty predictable format. However, this one is exceptionally bad because the characters just aren't interesting. Moreover, there's no solid reasoning behind the "bad guy's" obsession. It attempts to be deep but it really isn't, and the foundation it builds itself on (the protagonists's backstory) isn't explored deeply enough to make the audience care.

At this point, since no one else seems to like these Wrong movies, I now think I just have a * for them. I am working through the entire series. Yes. Series. An ongoing chronicles with a recurring theme? People seem to forget that this is a series. However, the writer(s) seem to be getting a teeny bit lazy. One point 15 minutes in, the two main female friends play fight over one of their phones and play an unusually long game of tug of war with the poor contraption and it flies out their hands in true bimbo fashion and slides across the dirt, landing coincidentally right at the foreshadowed killer's feet. ACTUAL line from the movie: (Obvious future victim): So do you just stand around waiting for phones to fly out of someone's hands so it can land at your feet and give you an excuse to talk to them? It's almost or literally as if the writer knows how poor the scene was and can't develop the plot any other way, and now has to justify the stupidity. HOWEVER. As banal as it was, I still for some reason love these movies. I think I enjoy the drama and the theme including its light hearted approach and the setting. It's absent minded entertainment. There was a plot twist here that was more of the better ones in the series, yet the build up was ironically one of the worse ones. Also there was a scene that was deliberately or rather blatantly edited in OUT of order. The victim was running track and then the police come and arrest her boyfriend for something they think she was apart of. Then the next scene she's all dolled up, walking into class not detained or interrogated and not looking like she ran track at all, and sits down in her seat not looking stressed at all, the actress herself is literally forcing casualty in this scene because she doesn't notice her stalker who suddenly appears in class. Then the next scene they continue the investigation scene in jail with her boyfriend... WTF. Then a couple scenes later she finally here in touch with her boyfriend meaning for the passed couple of scenes they never acknowledged his arrest or her involvement. Just no. Also the stalker is clearly Canadian due to his accent and he's trying to sound like a cool American and it's annoying. The mic is up too high on his voice and it makes his attempt at seductive whispers sound loud and forced and cringey because I can hear the words forming in the back of his throat. Not sexy. Last thing: The house is incredibly large and lavish for a single mom forced to work double shifts at a quaint nursing home. Other than that, the movie is just fine for what it is, a TV movie in the Wrong series.

I thought Victoria Konefal was superb in this and frankly Lesli Kay was mean right up to the end!

I'm five minutes in and the grown up daughter sees a man in a hoodie stalking her on the property. She doesn't bother about it. Doesn't even give it a second thought. Shortly after that, we see her mom supposedly working at a nursing home trying to spoon feed pureed peas to a resident. The resident is so healthy and alert that she could obviously feed herself and could've probably run the kitchen. Then, a minute after that, the mother and daughter have an encounter about their poor communication. The mother tells the daughter she can't answer her cell phone because she works at a nursing home! I now will have to answer the question as to whether my review contains spoilers. What a joke! Oh my goodness. How shall I answer?!? I was distracted for a few minutes typing this, but I'm back watching this crapfest. Now there is an actress who is obviously 28 years old unhappy because she didn't break the national record in some track event in practice, and her supposed coach who looks to be exactly her age acting like he has no idea how to coach. I guess not being able to coach and not being able to act were prerequisites for the role. I just got lucky! The program went on commercial break and I learned about Lysol, Doritos, TrueCar, Colonial Penn, and a bunch of dermatitis and incontinence products! Oops, now back to the show where the main character is a now a complete wreck of an alcoholic who dared her friend to death and got put on probation for it! I can't go on. It's time I do something better than watch this, like drill my own teeth.

I LIKED IT BECAUSE IT WAS A GOOD TV MOVIE NOT OVERLY DRAWN-OUT STRAIGHT TO THE POINT BUT A LITTLE MYSTERY 👍🏽 IT WAS JUST AS A TV MOVIE SHOULD BE.

Really boring Lifetime movie. The plot was stupid. The acting was quite poor.
