Reviews
SunnyHello Nice effects though.
Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
phd_travel A 17 year old girl inadvertently gets mixed up in a robbery planned by her boyfriend on the store her mother works in.This lifetime movie isn't ground breaking but it's surprisingly watchable thanks to a good cast and good dialog. Jennifer Grant as the mother is quite good.The lovely pre Vampire Diaries Nina Dobrev takes a role that could have been annoying and makes her quite sympathetic especially when she does some irritating things.It has a lesson about consequences about having the wrong boyfriend. Listen to your Moms girls! Worth a watch.
wes-connors After applying glossy color to her full lips, 17-year-old high school student Nina Dobrev (as Justine Douglas) meets her 21-year-old blond boyfriend Steve Byers (as Brent) and his wavy-haired brother James Gilbert (as Reggie) for a weird date. The two young men work as automobile mechanics. They rob the jewelry store where Ms. Dobrev's mother Jennifer Grant (as Denise) works as a manager. For some reason, Dobrev is immediately employed as the getaway car lookout, although she has just learned about the crime and acts like a flight risk. Turns out, she can be trusted to go along with the plan... After the robbery, Ms. Grant frets about daughter Dobrev's increasing strange behavior. Grant is the real-life daughter of Cary Grant and Dyan Cannon. She should worry, because this TV Movie is incredibly dumb. Even worse is the level of responsibility the story allows the daughter to take for her participation in the crime. For what it's worth, Mr. Gilbert does well with his sleazy character and Catherine Mary Stewart is always an attractive police detective.*** My Daughter's Secret (10/7/07) Douglas Jackson ~ Nina Dobrev, Jennifer Grant, Steve Byers, James Gilbert
ArgleBargle12345 The movie is all about the terrible female angst of the lead character, who was implicated in a robbery/homicide by her lowlife boyfriend. But if you ever watched a cop show in your life, you know that the moment she didn't get out of that car and run and call the cops, she was an accomplice. And every day that she continues to cover up her boyfriend's guilt, she is an accomplice after the fact. She's an amoral criminal and I don't see how anyone can possibly feel sorry for her or be concerned about her "plight." Legally she is as responsible for the murder as the guy who pulled the trigger.Anyway I'm sitting here watching it, so what's that say about me :-)
cflr For those of you familiar with the beautiful city of Ottawa, you will at least get to see some recognizable sites in this film. That is the highlight of this film for me as it was entirely predictable with mediocre acting. The character of the daughter is just downright irritating and annoying and viewers might just want to reach through their television screens and throttle her because of her stupidity. The only other redeeming quality of this film are the cameos by those outstanding Canadian actors, Sophie Gendron and Benz Antoine. As I have to add another two lines before this gets posted, I must say that I am probably being generous by giving this film 3 out of 10.
