NO HIDING IN THE PLOT

Warning: Spoilers
Ana Villafañe stars as Josephine Russo, a NYC woman placed in the witness protection program. She finds herself in the small town of Longview, Montana where she is given the identity of a teen under the care of social services. She has flashbacks to her instructions as to no contact, no cell phones, and no speaking Spanish, although when angered Spanish pours from her mouth. The high school she now attends has a group of girls similar to "the plastics." They are introduced with their own swagger music, and for a moment I thought this was going to be a pretty cool movie...but it didn't last long.

Josephine takes a liking to a boy named Jesse (Tyler Blackburn). Of course the head plastic (Kelcie Stranahan) doesn't like Josephine because her ex-bf is hitting on her too.

It isn't hard to figure out what is going to happen, if it didn't there wouldn't be a film.

The movie has a made for TV quality to it, down to the cliche script, second tier acting, and cheap soundtrack.

Ana, who was an artist in the film, sings a song during the closing credits to my surprise. Clearly this film was designed to showcase her talents. Too bad the script didn't support her. Teen movie all the way.

PARENTAL GUIDE: No f-bombs, sex, or nudity.
