Love at First Lie (2023 TV Movie)
7/10
Beware of the scammers!!!
30 June 2023
This movie tells the story of a Kate who meets a charming man on a dating app who appears to have it all- the looks, the charm and the money. Of course that isn't the case.. I've seen so many Netflix movies now about online scammers who try to squeeze money out of their victims by pretending to be rich and needing 'help' that it was cool to see a lifetime movie follow this storyline and makes you empathize with Kate as she falls for Walker and his devious scheme to rob her of everything. There were a handful of flaws with this film in terms of the cuts and a few moments in the acting that I wasn't a big fan of but overall this was an enjoyable film :)

Pumpkin Everything (2022 TV Movie)
7/10
Left me wanting more
1 March 2023
I mean that as in the romance aspect of the movie. The scenery was beautiful and there was a lot of potential for heart in this film, but the romance didn't seem to fully manifest on screen. I couldn't tell if it was a chemistry thing or if it was the writing.

The acting was believable for the most part and I really liked the grandfather character. He was one of the stronger parts of the film and had you feeling for him throughout the duration of the movie.

I love fall movies because I don't have seasons so I love escaping to them in movies. For that reason and the grandfather I give it a 7.

Nightmare PTA Moms (2022 TV Movie)
7/10
Unexpectedly funny
28 December 2022
I was expecting your typical Lifetime thriller with 'Nightmare PTS Moms' but it actually had a nice mix of comedy in it that isn't in a lot of other thrillers on the network. It's about a couple that moves to a new town with their daughter. The mother joins the school's PTA after meeting a charismatic Vanessa who turns out to be nuts. The whole story was believable because I could totally see this all playing out in real life (which definitely isn't always the case). I thought the chemistry between Gail and Chloe was strong as far as mother and daughter relationships go. There are plenty of other movies with a similar-ish plot, but I'd say it's got enough going for it that it's worth the watch :)

Triple Threat (2022 TV Movie)
7/10
The ending!!
10 November 2022
This was a fun film with an enjoyable storyline and some solid performances from the cast. It's about twins who find out they're actually triplets (reminds me of the documentary '3 identical strangers' in that regard). Things take a dark turn as the story moves along. There were some moments that felt a little slow to me but it definitely picked up toward the end and I feel like it was worth the wait because the climax really pays off in the end. If you're looking for a good thriller to watch then there are definitely worse movies out there that you can settle with. Give 'Framed by My Sister' a shot, you won't be disappointed!

Good Plot!
10 November 2022
A solid plot that keeps you questioning who the killing is throughout the movie. Usually it's obvious, but this film does a great job of keeping you on the edge of your seat to figure things out. Overall the performances were good and I thought it had a lot of nice moments in it that allowed the audience to participate in figuring things out. An intelligent movie that doesn't skip a beat until the end. There was also a wittiness to the conversations about killers that was unique to this movie and made it more of an intellectual pursuit rather than your typical mindless entertainment that you get with these types of movies.

My Nightmare Office Affair (2022 TV Movie)
9/10
One of the better lifetime movies out there
9 November 2022
It's a story that's been done a million times, but it moved along really well and was visually beautiful. What stood out most to me was the male lead who definitely carried the film and had a great character arc (not to mention the fact that he is gorgeous). I loved the chemistry between him and his wife, which made it that much more painful to watch it crumble to pieces as the movie went along. I also thought the chemistry was strong between Nick and his boss Lisa. It's nothing groundbreaking and you can probably figure out what's going to happen within the first 15min of the movie, but I definitely enjoyed it.
