Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Hayden Kane
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Ella-May O'Brien
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

I groaned as the film opened with "Inspired by True Events." Too late. I had already paid for it. Natasha Henstridge sadly plays a college law professor who can't spring her innocent brother from jail. In the opening scene, a college girl gets killed. Her nerdy roommate, Brea Gant with some facial zits, whose only alibi was an empty library, gets blamed.The story had many plot holes. I had to laugh at the bad writing. The victim was last seen with a boy, no DNA rape test. The boy is never questioned. The roommate is charged with circumstantial evidence. Her attorney was idiotic. The police action was bad, especially for LA that has the resources. Henstridge dons her CSI gear to solve the crime...she looks at Facebook profiles and uses her cell phone camera. At one point she gets a message "Leave it Alone." Oh the tension just builds and oozes...NOT!And you don't want to break into a California TV home because they keep a golf club by the bedroom door for protection!There are no girls in plaid skirts as seen on the cover (I could have added a star for that). This was made for TV quality...about 1970.No f-bombs. There is an opening, dimly lit sex scene (brief nudity?).

LMN has made a great mystery movie again. If you like mysteries, you will love this exciting movie.Nicole Johnson is a criminology professor who believes one of her students is innocent of committing murder and there starts her journey to find out who the real killer is.There are many twists and turns in this movie that you keep your attention the entire time. It is suspenseful and entertaining. The acting of all the actors is excellent. Natasha Henstridge is always a skilled actress. The sound was clear and the script was well written.I would definitely recommend this mystery thriller to everyone to watch and I am going to watch it again on LMN when it comes on. Keep doing a good job, LMN. I gave this movie a 10 because it was excellent. I would have liked a longer ending with more detail and explanation, but maybe LMN can work on that for their next mystery movie.

I give this trite no vote at all. Terrible plot, the usual, for LMN. And again leading ladies with no acting ability. When you want the heroine to be done in, you know you're in for trouble. For certainly Natasha Henstridge was that bad. Very busty and bangs that cover most of her face, she is just terrible in this. Is this a proper teachers wearing apparel? Slinky tight tight pants, tight top so bust can be admired? Would any school let a woman like this teach in their school? And just when does she teach? Too busy parading around looking for clues. Henstridge goes around poking her nose in every body else's business and wonders why someone is after her. Duh, because you're a busy body. She spends most of the film being chased in her car. Terrible, horrible movie for TV. In supporting roles Josie Davis, Brea Grant, Jay Pickett and Carlson Young do the best they can. Oh by the way to see more tight clothes, big breasts see Henstridge in The Widow on the Hill. Awful movie. In watching this terrible film a second time, unintentionally I still cringe at the sight of Henstridge. Just can't stand her. Her acting matches the stupidity of the role she is playing. And her figure does not flatter her too much. Maybe why she is always in black. She is so damn nosy in everybody's business attempting to be a detective. And when she gets dramatic, wow talk about over acting. I especially like the way Josie Davis keeps a straight face working with dame Henstridge.

The writing is OK, the acting is below sub-par, but the sound editing is horrific. There is a scene on a beach and the lines are edited together so poorly you can hear waves crashing in the back ground then total silence then waves in mid-crash again, then silence. It is as if they made no effort to go into a sound studio and re-record the dialogue with pre-recorded beach sounds in the back ground. They just used what they got from the actual scene filmed on the beach.Whomever edited the sound on this one was promoted far beyond their abilities.If you want a good laugh just fast forward to the beach scene, about minute 24 or so.
