Strange Listing on IMDB
I saw this movie with the title "The Wrong Daughter" on Lifetime, and it was a stereotypical Lifetime movie, with all the usual elements. I won't go into them now; anyone who watches Lifetime movies knows what I mean. I thought the way it is listed here is strange, though. They don't list it as a "TV Movie", though I can't believe it wasn't made as one. This is true especially since it is listed as a Lifetime movie under the "Company Credits" section, if you click on "Production Co: See more". They also don't list the running time, which is unusual. But the strangest part is that they show it as a "Comedy, Thriller", and there are absolutely no comedic elements to the movie. As I said, it is just a standard Lifetime movie, with a crazy person doing improbable things, and with a typically improbable, predictable ending. I can only suspect that, since the movie just aired the day before I wrote this, IMDB may not have all the facts straight about the movie yet. Hopefully that will be corrected over time. Anyway, as far as a review goes, what can I say other than what I already did? It's typical Lifetime movie, no better or worse than what is usually produced for them. If you like those kinds of movies, this will please you as much as any other Lifetime movie does. Just don't expect great acting, or a coherent script without gaping holes in it. But you already know that, if you watch Lifetime movies and know the standard structure that is used to make them. I gave it 6 stars. It probably deserves less, but it gave me exactly what I expected from a Lifetime movie, so I was a bit generous.
Mental Illness and Character Development
I just watched this movie on Lifetime. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. I don't usually review movies, but there was one particular point I wanted to make in reaction to this movie. On the one hand, I liked Samantha's character development, that she wasn't just evil, but that she was struggling with mental illness. I found her sympathetic at the end and that reflects good acting and/or writing. Her fate in this movie was somewhat cruel in that she was in need of love, didn't know how to get it, and was never going to get it. The humanity of mental illness was treated better in this movie than in many, but even more could have been done with this.
Not bad
Not bad movie, it is hard to believe this is based on a true event but it was OK. April Bowlby was a revelation in this drama, I had no idea she could act after only seeing her before in 'Two and a half men' as Kandi.
last 10 minutes
I was okay with the movie until the last few minutes. The script had the real daughter calling from the group home from the director's office to the mother. Why didn't the director take the phone and tell the real mother about the imposter? No wonder the mother didn't believe the girl. Also, if the director was suspecting that Samantha was up to no good, why didn't she call law enforcement? That section was a little hard to believe.
Impressively not Wrong.
For one of the many "Wrong" movies, this one got it right. Hardly any complaints about it at all. The acting was fine, particularly the antagonist. Nothing happened that was outrageously stupid. The very end was a little questionable, but still pleasing and entertaining. The only complaint I have is not really a complaint. Every actress looked more or less alike, attractive blondes with long hair. (Except one was a brunette.) Now, since they all looked good, that's really not a complaint.
