Amber Alert (2016 TV Movie)
9/10
Clever well written thriller
2 August 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Clever story! The writing of this story is way above average for a TV movie let alone Lifetime movie thriller. Could have been a feature film. A hostage negotiator deals with a man who kidnaps a bus full of kids. But the kidnapper has a justification, kind of. His cancer stricken mother was denied an insurance payout for a rare illness so he wants the evil insurance company to pay the ransom. There is some commentary about the insurance business.

Alaina Huffman is beautiful and convincing at the same time - a rarity.

The dialog is well written and the ending is clever and satisfying all things come together and any plot holes are filled.
