vsd324 "And here's to you Mrs. Peterson. Jesus loves you more than you know." This movie is a twisted version of "The Graduate" (1967), although not only has Mrs. Robinson become Mrs. Peterson, but in this movie it is the teacher being seduced. Noah Sandborn (Ryan Guzman) moves next door to Claire Peterson (Jennifer Lopez), a teacher of Classical English Literature at the high school Noah will be attending. Claire is on rocky terms with her husband as the two struggle to be civil for the sake of their son Kevin (Ian Nelson). Noah is orphaned, and has moved in to help his elderly uncle who is going for an operation and Noah intends to provide help as he recovers. Noah quickly befriends the Petersons, and one night, while home alone, he calls upon Mrs. Peterson to come to his rescue on a failed attempt to make a chicken dinner. She goes over, and Noah seduces her, and in the vulnerable state she is in, she succumbs. The next morning, when Mrs. Peterson tries to say what a mistake had been made, we see Noah has become obsessed and now has this incident to use as blackmail. Part of the problem with this movie is there is not enough character development. It would've been better if it toyed with your emotions, making you first really like Noah before he becomes evil; but the movie gives you a creepy feeling about Noah right from the beginning, in his action, in his dialogue, and even in the music they play right from the opening credits. Overall the whole plot is pretty far-fetched. Not a great work of art, but bottom line the movie does make you wonder how it's going to end. Unfortunately not even the ending is that exciting.

bequialife Nothing original, nothing clever, so predictable. I can't believe money was spent on making something like this. And the title? Couldn't come up with anything else? Sorry but 19 year old boys don't know how to use the words this fellow did to seduce her. Trying too hard to be poetic at that age.You might like it if you like Jennifer Lopez. Such an eye roller...Unless you love the guy in 'Sex and the City', Aiden, Carrie's boyfriend at one point. He acts like a father trying to hard to be a teenager.

ummefarwa Okay so this movie was really something.You know that kind of scares you off stalkers and people like that.What Claire did in the end was awful,terrible and macabre maybe.This was something I couldn't even think of doing even to my captor-to be quiet honest!He was a clearly obsessed and this obsession or passion led to his own destruction.I mean he was so blinded by obsession that he couldn't think straight.Well I enjoyed the movie on the whole but the last scene was kind of dreadful for me.And the memory would last.However,Ryan Guzman is devilishly handsome and this character pretty suit him.J-lo is not really my favourite but she did really well though.So on the whole it was prolly based on a different theme which played well I must say!

jsaus63304 Totally a formula movie. We have seen the plot a dozen times with a mentally deranged person who is obsessed with another person, works their way into the life of that person and becomes dangerously deranged. Similar plot to films like Fatal Attraction, The Babysitter, The Stepfather and dozens of other films on the Lifetime Network. What really amazes me is that well known stars will actually accept rolls in films like this. Do they need the money that badly? Maybe with American Idol ending, Jennifer Lopez felt she would need a little cash to hold her over to the next gig. Bad acting, bad writing, bad character development, bad plot. The best part was the end and the worst part was that it did not come soon enough.
