Reviews
Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
utahman1971 Well, this is decent thriller and jumpy at some parts, but I heard things about things happening on missions with missionaries on the mission I went to. Santa Rosa, California, around 1992 to 1994, is when I went on mine. There was a women I was tempted to do the same thing with.I am not like this guy in the movie. She was hot, and luckily, I had a companion that got me not to do it. My last area of the mission too. So I would of been like this except I did not think of having a family with her and sealed.I am still going to church, and never done anything like this in the movie. This movie is great, and I am into horror movies and some thrillers. I always wanted to see this movie, and watched it on Netflix. I am glad I did and enjoyed it. It only deserves a 5 though.So it is not fabulous but good. I would watch it again but just to watch if there is nothing else to watch and be okay with it.
phd_travel We have all seen Mormon missionaries spreading the word in their black pants and white shirt and tie. This movie starts off like a Lifetime thriller but ends up more in the horror genre. The heroine is estranged from her cheating hubby. She sleeps with a younger Mormon missionary who helps her kid with football. Turns out the clean cut innocent looking young man is a maniac who becomes obsessed with her when she decides to go back to her husband.The actress Dawn Olivieri seems a bit expressionless in her acting. The missionary played by Mitch Ryan is quite effective.It doesn't demonize the religion but it shows there can be wackos anywhere - don't let appearances fool you.Worth a watch.
kat-freuden This is the typical B grade stalker movie. There is nothing is new here, it's very predictable, and the acting is mediocre at best. This was recommended to me by a friend, and I watched it on Netflix. I should have looked at the viewer rating first, because if I'd seen it I wouldn't have bothered to watch. I won't make that mistake again any time soon! I suppose I'm not the right audience for this movie. I do like psychological thrillers, but stories about psychos who just go all psychotic with no rhyme or reason just bore me. I'm not a prude about sex or violence, but here are parts of this that just seem to be gratuitous: over-the-top violence just thrown in for effect. When I think about it, I can't imagine a single friend to whom I'd recommend this (except perhaps the one who recommended it to me). As they say, now THERE'S two hours of my life that I won't get back...
kosmasp Not sure if there is a pun intended with the title of the movie, but one thing is for sure, this is a thriller that can be seen in the tradition of "Fatal Attraction". Kind of like "Fatherly Attraction" then if you're not too offended by that word play. The thrill aspect of the movie is pretty easy to pick up on and I'm sure almost everyone will know where this is heading quite early.So it is the journey that is interesting and the "players" involved in the journey that will get our attention. With Dawn O. we you get not only a good actress, but a very beautiful one too. Which makes the temptation part even more believable. Unfortunately not all parts of the story are as believable and it does run into more and more clichés (especially when it is reaching the climax - no pun intended).Still if you like thrillers, you will be entertained enough
