Disappointed

++ POSSIBLE SPOILER ++ I am only giving this a 4 because they have got the mental illnesses wrong, first it is not called ' a borderline personality' because it is an illness in itself, we are not nearly Ill, the mental health professionals prefer to call it Emotional Intensity Disorder. The other point I want to make is that the vast majority of us are not murderers, we are far more a danger to ourselves. How are we all supposed to fight the stigma of all mental illness if the movie makers, the press etc keep giving out the wrong information, like branding all of us as killers. I find this all very sad as I struggle everyday with borderline personality disorder.

could be horror

Cassidy (Natasha Henstridge) is released from a mental institution. She goes to stay with her younger patrol policewoman sister Jane (Kelly Rutherford) who has a family of her own. Jane's daughter Emily (Peyton List) is struggling with nightmares of drowning and has a water phobia.

The reveal holds no surprises. In fact, the pieces fall into the exact places that one expects. For anybody with elemental math skills, one should be able to figure out Emily's origins. Quite frankly, this story is made to be a psychological horror from Emily's point of view. Instead, it's a Lifetime movie and it is all Lifetime. As such, there isn't much tension and has no momentum. Even the final twist is fully expected. I would have been disappointed if the script doesn't take it to its logical ending. At least, it arrives at its end point without big screw ups.

Good acting especially from Kelly Rutherford

It's so great to see the lovely Kelly Rutherford of Gossip Girl stretch her dramatic acting abilities as a police officer. You might not think it but she can play both the high society matron and a cop just as well. Her fiancé is played by her Gossip Girl co star Matthew Settle. They always work well together. Her sister who is released from a mental institution after a long confinement and comes to stay with her. She is played by a regular of lifetime movies the versatile Natasha Henstridge of Species fame. With 3 A list for TV actors it's got to be better than the run of the mill lifetime thriller. It's entertaining enough and not as obvious as you would think and remains plausible. Picturesque coastal town for a filming location. Things don't get too outrageous or unbelievable. Worth a watch.
