How sad is this?

Fresh and Exciting

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

What a bunch of incompetent idiots. They hire Locklear, and photograph her so that she ends up looking like Jocelyn Wildenstein. They hire aging uber-hunk Schaech, show him ripping off his shirt in steamy scenes, and then don't show his chest. Who knows, maybe Locklear was having a bad-face day, and Schaech was having a bad-chest day.I felt sorry for the actors having to grind their way through this stuff; I guess its an indication of how difficult it is for them to find decent roles. The story is unusually dumb, and does a disservice to people with serious mental problems who have been helped by some of the procedures depicted.

I am a Nora Roberts fan and this book I really loved. I think the movie is OK. Not great, but all right. At least they kept to the story. I see why it is described as a TV movie. It is made decently, but it has nothing extra.I understand that they needed to squeeze everything in to the movie and that they had to cut some scenes. But some things could have done with some more attention. Like the scene when Reece sees the woman get killed.Most things, like persons and scenes in the movie are the way imagined them. Most of the persons look like they are described in the book. Ther is 1 'BUT'. I usually like Heather Locklear, but giving a 46 year old woman the role of a 28 year old character is a bit of a stretch, I think.

where the faces are different, but the underlying message is still the same. This is a brand-new movie, and yet I've seen it a thousand times before.The last fifteen minutes of it are as predictable as a sunrise, right from the opening credits.Can the Hollywood producers not come up with a different idea, a new ending for their so called "thriller"s? Do they still believe that this type of ending has any thrill at all, when it's been done so many times? I'm not familiar with Nora Roberts as a writer, but this looks like it could well have been written by Mary Higgins Clark, or by me, for that matter.I wouldn't rate this higher than 4 on the Richter scale.

I'm only giving it as much as 4 stars because they did a good job following Nora's book allowing for the time constraints, but it's a shame that the casting wasn't better. I thought Jonathan Schaech was OK as Brody. Joanie was too nice - nowhere near cranky enough. But surprisingly enough, Heather Locklear was the worst. You'd think as long as she's been around she'd be able to do a much better acting job than that. It's like she didn't care enough to give it her all. It was pathetic, starting with the scene where she hears the car backfire. That wasn't a "hit the deck" kind of reaction, that was more like when the director says "ok, when the car backfires, you go like this." And her fights with Joanie and then Brody were beyond ridiculous. I'm betting she never even read the book. And if she did and still acted like that, then she should really be ashamed of herself.
