Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.
GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
Scotty Burke It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
fastr413 This movie was very entertaining and well acted, but it didn't capture Cinnamons personality. When I first met Cinnamon, she was a very shy and sweet girl who A friend of mine had asked me to show around the school and introduce her to people. She was always very sweet and somewhat shy. I never saw her angry or "bitchy" EVER! She and I were friends from the time she enrolled in our high school until the day we were told that police were trying to find her.Patti Bailey was my girlfriends best friend, and Cinnamon had a big crush on my younger brother. A group of us used to hang out at the park before and after school and Patti was there almost everyday. Cinnamon would come out there sometimes, but most of the time She and I talked between classes and during lunch. I was around them enough to know the type of personalities they had, and I feel that the movie simple did not capture their true personalities.. None of us knew David or anything about his treachery, but I did meet him , and He did not seem very likable or charismatic to me. Anyway I remember all of them differently than they were portrayed in the movie, and on that level I was very disappointed.
BreanneB I liked this movie, which is based on a shocking and chilling true story. Knowing that this really happened sends chills up my spine. David Brown is a manipulative, evil, liar, and murderer who masterminded and had his daughter and sister-in-law carry out the murder of his wife Linda Brown.It all started when they overheard Linda talking on the phone and saying that she wanted to kill David. That's when David plotted her murder. Even though Patty pulled the trigger Cinnamon took the fall for it because they knew she would do less time then Patty and David.But later the truth eventually does come out and David and Patty are charged, convicted, and sentenced as well. Cinnamon and Patty are done serving their time but David will remain prison forever. He's at Folsom State Prison in California.
wexler2 If this movie were not based on a true story I wouldn't have believed the plot. However, knowing it is base on truth I definitely would recommend watching this for a lazy afternoon movie! This is one truly dysfunctional family, starting with the living arrangements David had with his second wife, her younger sister and Cinammon (the daughter from a previous marriage.)The character of Cinammon did a great job and made her role very believable. From the start when she confessed to the murder of her step-mother, all the way to the ending.This is my first review so I am afraid to write too much as I don't want to give away too much information, but I do recommend it, especially for people that love true crime drama's! I hope this review is somewhat helpful.
bux Although you won't find a lot of big names in the cast (perhaps that enhances the production!) this is a first rate true-crime drama. As the story unfolds we find that Brown is, as the judge states, "More scary than Charles Manson." The only problem I had with the entire production, was the script seemed not fully developed, characters dropped in and out without much of an introduction or explanation. Having read the book I was more easily able to follow the story. All said and done, however, this is a good one.
