Honestly, people are making out this movie is the worst - It's not at all! I gave this a watch the other night & it was a good keep you on the edge of your seat movie. Yeah, ok, the movie has been done 100 times before but the storyline differed to the usual crazy ex wife still Inlove with her ex husband scenario. There's a lot more hidden & psychologial depth to it. Katherine Heigl played the ex wife brilliantly, she seriously gave me the creeps. A total psychotic, delusional, OCD lunatic! At times I just wanted her to be caught out, I couldn't watch at what her next malicious & deceitful move against Rosario Dawson was going to be! Actors gave 100% throughout - I really don't get why people just can't enjoy a movie that's not so original. I mean, what movies are original these days anyway? 9/10 they've all been done before or they're remakes! Give this movie a go if you like thrillers/dramas. If you have an open mind, then you won't be disappointed!

The acting was okay but the creepy factor got shivers up my spine. I found myself wishing I could reach through the screen and choke the psycho till she turned blue.This is a good example of an uptight, self indulgent person who drives people away, then hates on them because they left. The video did a good job of showing how someone could use social media to raise havoc with your life.I suggest you take this as a warning, if you find yourself in a situation like this you have to get away from ALL of it. Obsessive people never stop, that's why they are called obsessive. They have a mental energy level the average person cannot match.

Is it a spoiler to say there are no spoilers? Seriously, the plot of this movie is so timeworn and obvious that you find yourself thinking there must be a twist, but no, it just plods on toward its inevitable conclusion. It's like the script was written by a bot that had been trained on Lifetime Original "thrillers". As if it weren't already predictable enough, they inexplicably wipe out any doubts by telling most of the story in *flashback*. It opens with a a badly beaten Rosario Dawson in a police station, accused of killing her abusive ex-boyfriend, whom she'd had a restraining order against for some time. She's confronted with a bunch of evidence that she lured him to the scene of the crime by flirting with him on Facebook, sending him her panties, etc. They then fade to "Six months earlier...".Dawson is an aspiring author, who has just gotten engaged to a Goeff Stults' character, who owns a brew pub. Somehow they've gotten this far in their relationship without Dawson ever getting to know his young daughter and ex-wife, played by Katherine Heigl, in spite of the fact that he appears to have full joint custody. They could have introduced a touch of suspense by adding even the slightest bit of nuance to Heigl's character, but she radiates so much evil and crazy that she might as well be holding a sign that says "villain". Since we already know where the movie is going, we just have to figure out how Heigl is going to frame Dawson for her ex-boyfriend's murder - which gets set up in about the next 10 minutes. After that, you just have to sit back and watch the pieces fall into place, which they do with disappointing precision.That said, the actors do the best with the script they've been given. Heigl is very good at playing an evil, crazy person - possibly because, if rumors are true, that doesn't require a lot of acting for her. Dawson is the typical protagonist in this sort of movie, meaning that she's a good person who is constantly making bad decisions that end up digging her in deeper. Nevertheless, you find yourself rooting for her.Stults is an LOM (="Lifetime Original Male"), by which I mean a good guy who's not all that bright. He loves Dawson, but often finds himself believing his ex, in spite of the fact that he must know how crazy she is firsthand. In then end, if - like me - you find yourself on an airplane and this is one of the movie options, it's not the worst way to pass an hour and forty minutes of the flight, but there are better options if you're at home.
